Rep. Charles Rangel called an apparent building explosion and collapse in his home district in Harlem, New York the most “horrific” thing that has hit his home district in his time in Washington and his community’s Sept. 11. “I’ve never had anything this horrific that’s happened in my community since I’ve been in Washington,” Rangel told NBC’s New York affiliate Wednesday as news reports of the fire response continued to come in. “I hope that soon, and very soon, it will be contained and we can go back to some degree of normal normalcy.”

Your repeated re-election is the most horrific thing that has ever happened to Harlem, Charlie.

Rangel obviously hasn’t yet figured out that NYC is his community. 9/11 is his disaster not just white people’s.

No, but I’m certain that the race card is getting ready to be played.

So the real 9/11 was what? A “cracka catastrophe”?

His community’s 9/11?

So, the blacks’ 9/11?

They need their own 9/11?

What a disgrace. Turns an explosion and the loss of life into a racial issue.
