Fellow African Americans, our country has tried to hide what has really been going on in New Orleans. We are the only ones left behind? Why you ask? because we are black! Do you think in we were white people, in florida, where bushs brother is, we would be left to die for 5 days or more? No? In fact hell no.
Most of white america does not give a hoot about us. I just found my family today, after 6 days and some people are still missing. This is bullcrap.
My dad is from Africa and my mom is from New orleans. We could not tell who we were seeing on TV. My father an African, says african people are living better than that. This is appaulling!!!!! Now it is time to get our black people in New Orleans on there feet to fight for there rights.
In one city, there should not be more than one half of the population poor. This is not right. Why is it we could not get good jobs and cars in New Orleans, some people even have college degrees.
This is not right and I not going to stand fo it anymore. Now new orleans has been exposed to world to see how Americans are really living, poor!!!!!!!!!God help us!

Is it really necessary to post that kind of diatribe here - it's somewhat akin to posting directly from DU....
His Dad needs to go back...
Here comes the race card
Whine whine whine whine..........sick of this garbage.
Next....................
Just goes to show you what 50 years of coddling by the government and the Democratic party has done to a great many black people in this country.
If white people got out why not him? Or was he waiting for the government to do it?
Why are mostly black people left? Possibly because more of them waited for Mayor Jonses to get them out?
This could be a financial opportunity for many Blacks. But It's going to be, "It's whitey's, let whitey fix it".
I have watched every day and have seen whites left behind also..Of course not as many because their are not as many whites there..Blame the "LOCAL POLITITIANS" not the government..why weren't they on top of this..Isn't there school buses church buses and all kind of buses that the Mayer and official could have used..And as far as I could see the mayor is black..but no it is the whites that is to blame for all this mess..Give me a break.
Oh and btw if they are living poor it is their choice..There are jobs out there go get them..
No this article is a racist article not the other way around..
Working on his grammar would help.
Thousands of mostly white people risking their lives to save tens of thousands of overwhelmingly black people. While hundreds of black thugs take pot shots at them. And idiots like this creep, Jesse Jackson and the Black Caucus blame it on President Bush. I was going to send in a donation but now they'll only get my tax money. I will send my money to local charities in Mississippi and Alabama. I'm more disgusted than I have ever been in my life. Buy a gun and learn how to use it. A civil war is, IMHO inevitable.
You have a right to get yourself educated. You have a right to find yourself a job. You have a right to get the heck out of the way of a hurricane(they don't sneak up in the middle of the night). You have the right to park your family in the middle of a sinking city surrounded by water if you wish. You even have the right to then complain and blame others for your own failures.
Welcome to America, get off your arse and learn from your mistakes that almost cost you your family.
Buy a gun and learn how to use it. A civil war is, IMHO inevitable..
I have one and a licence to carry..And I sure know how to use it..and carry it with me where ever I am allowed..
I apologize to all who read this.
My initial post cited numerous positive posts from the web site. But due to posting restrictions from the Times Picayune only this negative excert came through.
Once again my apologies to all
Nice move philo - report to FR detention tomorrow..
On a normal occaison, I would consider your reply to this thread to be a rather racially-biased post.
But in this particular case - it's a very accurate and proper reply to this idiot's diatribe. Thank you for saying what far too many in this country are afraid to say (PC Police and all...).
Mostly black people are left because NO is a mostly black city...almost 3/4s black, I believe...
