The Rev. Jesse Jackson and a Dallas County commissioner have accused a Texas hospital of racism in the death of Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan.
"What role did [Duncan's] lack of privilege play in the treatment he received? He is being treated as a criminal rather than as a patient," Jackson wrote in a story for the Huffington Post this week. "As followers of Jesus, we are called to work for the day when those with privilege, most often white people, have greater access to better medical care than those whom Jesus calls 'the least of our sisters and brothers.'"
Duncan, who traveled to Dallas from Liberia on Sept. 20, contacted the disease while in the West African country — which has become ground zero in the current epidemic. He succumbed to the illness Wednesday.
Duncan visited Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital on Sept. 25 after first experiencing symptoms a day earlier. Doctors released him, seeing no major cause for concern. Reports say that Duncan told doctors he had come from West Africa.

Isn’t at least one of those people in that photo now in the hospital?
Professional rabble-rousing and race hustling: only in America can these be lucrative enterprises. Then add the title, “Rev.” and you really hit the big time.

“Jesse has had physical contact with the dead Ebola patient’s family’
Didn’t these family members live out of state with the exception of Duncan’s son that was away at College. None if I recall correctly had contact with Duncan once he arrived here.
Jesse Jackson commenting on anything: “Blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah...”
“Didn’t these family members live out of state with the exception of Duncan’s son that was away at College. None if I recall correctly had contact with Duncan once he arrived here.”
Correct. These relatives are just cockroaches looking for a big payday out of their relative’s death.
Now that another person, a caregiver, for their selfish relative has tested positive for Ebola they really need to scurry back under their floor boards and shut the heck up.
Jesse Jackson is a jerk, maybe he should show Obola how to have an affair like he did with Clinton...does he have anything else in his life to do?
Lying is not one that Jesus support. How in God’s green Earth can you forget or ignore that you helped a person who was spewing Blood from her mouth not mentioning none of it. Had he been responsible he could have received treatment. However one can’t say if it would save his life or not. Now look their is a second person with Ebola.

If Jesse quits using the word “racism” at every convenient moment, his racist career is finished.
the conclusion we can draw from this is that blacks do not believe all of the racist hogwash they spout. they use it as a means to manipulate those that are willing to be manipulated.
I cannot believe Jesse Jackson has the nerve to start his race garbage. Duncan lies to come into our country. Expose countless people. Causes the expenditure of 100’s of 1000’s of dollars of taxpayer money to try to save this guy... His idiot relatives only see a lawsuit to get money. What they should get is the bill for taking care of their family member....
Is Jesse’s kid that looks like Obama if Obama had a son still in prison?
