Oh please, talk about reaching. What a pantload.

[Nepeta]

Did you notice the year the put under the Katrina photo?

DETAILS! Who has time for details when we must go chanting "Sol not coal," and struggle to save the planet from global warming and The White Man?

[UCANSEE2]

In other words, it isn't really about climate, and it isn't really about race....

It's about the money.

[Sivad]

The littering of cyberspace. It is as if the Occupy Movement
has taken up residence inside the internet.

[Nepeta]

Why does she capitalize "Black" but not "brown?"

Because Evil Brown People run a lot of stores in black neighborhoods, and they expect to actually be paid for their merchandise instead of handing it out to the deserving Youth.

[4Liberty]

Deniers are raaaciissss...

[The_Media_never_lie]

Nothing quite like an idiot with an attitude.

[boycott]

This is, in part, the result of my experience of growing up Black in America,

Oh you poor baby ........ I think I am going to cry. Why not do one of those cool knock out games like so many black thugs are doing? Maybe you’ll feel better?

[boycott]

This woman has worms in her head.

I’ll add that New Orleans is a much nicer town now since Katrina. It ran a lot of the thug murderers away. Unfortunately, it displaced a lot of those thugs to other towns and brought those towns down.

[Organic Panic]

Hahahaha. Every single communist, racialist, progressive, liberal, and environazi talking point all chewed together and vomited for all to read.

"In the wake of the climate disaster that was Hurricane Katrina almost 10 years ago, I saw the same images of police, pointing war-zone weapons at unarmed black people with their hands in the air. In the name of 'restoring order', my family and their community were demonised as 'looters' and 'dangerous.'"

In the aftermath of the storm, the looters were shooting at the rescuers and relief workers.

Why does she capitalize "Black" but not "brown?"

Seems kind of racist.

In the wake of the climate weather disaster that was Hurricane Katrina

[Califreak]

I can’t believe people actually get paid for writing horseshit like that.

Is this satire?

[cva66snipe]

My Puppy Dog Henry had some kittens. Would you like some free Gerbils from the litter?

[trebb]

Seems like battered-wifeho syndrome is alive and well in the Black community. When the women stand up for the thugs, you know you have lost them and that they have no reason to adopt societal skills - if the women consider them valid sperm donors, even in all their thuggery and inane "macho pride", then there is little hope for them.

was devastated for Mike Brown ― the unarmed Black teenager shot dead by police on August 9

Unarmed-black-teenager, the leftie hat-trick.

[outofsalt]

To me, the connection between militarised state violence, racism, and climate change was common-sense and intuitive.
Not just a nonsequitor but, nonsensical.

[Molon Labbie]

Well, when they finally admit to the polar caps increasing they will say it’s because of the spread of white racism and priviledge.

Seriously, these people are deranged.

[grobdriver]

When a crisis hits, the underlying racism in our society comes to the surface in very clear ways

When a crisis hits, who does the looting?
Their heroes are the ones saying, "Never let a crisis go to waste" - and they don't.
