Sorry man. Your straying way off topic.

It has nothing to do with what anyone thinks. It has everything to do with what has happened. A.M is right. Too much opertunity for everyone in this country to single out any group or race on any issue.

In this particular case, a very large group of a very large community chose to do nothing except beat the hell outa each other, and steal everything they could get their hands on. It was not a few isolated thugs, it was the community at large.

You can use all the big words you want to suger coat it but it was and is really quite disgusting. The goverment did not do this. The people that remained in N.O did it and the world gets to watch.

The last time anything like this happened it was in L.A Something bad happens so lets burn down the town, beat everyone in sight, steal everything we can get our hands on, then blame the goverment and the MAN for everything. Oh, I almost forgot, lets do it to the people we love the most like the people next door etc.

The south gets hammered all the time with weather events that are pretty devastating. Seems like it happens 3 times a year in Florida and they pitch in and help each other out. No national guard needed. Same mix of people just a lot more caring community. They organize and prioritize. This is not the first big hurricane to come along. Its just the first where half the people decided to not heed any warnings and just sit there and not help anyone, not even themselves.
