This past weekend, Minister Louis Farrakhan held a National Town Hall Meeting in Houston, Texas to encourage the evacuees and discuss measures to be taken in Hurricane Katrina's aftermath.

Farrakhan was joined by the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network president Ben Chavis, Jim Jones, Erykah Badu and other Black leaders at the meeting. Victims of the hurricane were bussed to the meeting from the Houston's Astrodome, the Reliant Center and other shelters in the city. The victims were given the chance to tell their stories and address their worries during the meeting.

"I say to the President of the United States and to the members of Congress, you cannot destroy the cities and towns of other people in the Nations and not expect the laws of justice to return to you what you give. Jesus said, 'as a man seweth, the same shall he also reap.'"

Near the end of his speech, the minister quoted from the Quaran and stated that progress cannot be accomplished without going through trials or experiencing loss. Likening their struggle to biblical Job who saw his family, possessions and wealth destroyed, the minister promised the evacuees that their future would be brighter than their past.

I guess Farrakhan forgot that Jesus also said, "Go, and sin no more."

Louie has been spewing his garbage so long, I think he's starting to believe it himself.

Mr. Farrakhan should be careful what he wishes for because the real payback time will occur when it is finally recognized that those who scream racism the loudest are the biggest racists.

Farakan went on..

"Of course today is the 13th, which is feared by the White Man when he burned witches at the stake for being black. If you add 7 and divide by 2 you end up with 10, which is 4 less than the number of colonies that enslaved the Black Man.

"Add 120 and you get 130, which is my 1/2 hour fee for speaking to self-loathing White Men, but you need to add another 100 to pay for my Limo."

I am so sick of people wasting time. This is pathetic. I've never seen such hate with one President. They just won't STFU!

Hey Louis! Jesus also said, "you don't work you don't eat." I'm sure most of your capable audience doesn't even have a job.

I think he's crazier than a sh*thouse rat, but ain't nothing wrong with some local people getting work down there. (So long as they can handle working for Satan himself, Halliburton!) /sarcasm

In the fifties he was a calipso singer. I saw pictures of him in some of his showbiz outfits, wow, are they funny.

The man is a real sicko. The good news is that the FBI hears and sees every move he makes. After 9/11, he was the first one they targeted. He can't even go to the bathroom without the government knowing.

"Mr. Farakkhan, you have a phone call. Rita X is on line one. Something about the Mothership and adjusting your meds..."

Isn't this back asswards? If God intervenes to provide "justice" then since a hurricane is an "act of God", doesn't this mean that God is mad at New Orleans?

I guess Islam wasn't working with the crowd, so he had to switch over to a Christian message. I wonder if he knows the make and model of Jesus's spacecraft. That is in the Bible, isn't it Lou?
