Who do you advocate banning? What would your suggest the FR rules be changed to. I believe the people who make do rascist coments are already banned. Are you advocating a level of political correctness equal to a college campus?
Recent events have brought to light some harsh truths. If some people can't stomcach it, then that is their problem.
Thanks for dropping by to prove our point.
Can't you folks resist throwing around the PC thing? Get a life.
What harsh truths?
You want harsh truths, here they are: In any town, any where, there is an element of the society which will be criminal in its behaviour.
It does not matter if the town is composed entirely of people with green skin.
There will also be the homeless, the dirt dog poor, and the relatively prosperous, and every group in between.
You do not have to be uneducated, lazy, or stupid to be homeless, I have been there. One layoff at the wrong time and you are on the mercy of friends and the system. Thank God for my friends. If they need anything, anytime, they've got it, and they know it.
Others opt for the system, (or have no other options) some work their way out of that rattrap. Others yet will find the system so comfortable that they will not be pried out. That has nothing to do with color, but the individual.
Here are the HARSHEST TRUTHS of all:
That the media concentrated on the worst of the worst in NOLA in order to stir up racial issues, painting people there with a broad brush.
That the media coverage (for days) ended with the last dry foot of pavement heading east. The rest of the gulf coast was only seen on a rare flyby.
That there are poor southern welfare whites as well, (even though you would never know it by the press coverage)?
That those who would foment racial unrest are pushing the Anti-Bush agenda, and have been from day one, and anything they could do to diminish any relief effort and then blame Bush was considered fair game? SO they did what they could to make this a divisive issue along any lines they could, and income and race were the easiest.
All you needed to be stuck there in NOLA was to be the last person you know to leave and have a bad chip in your car or a dead battery.
That people who are normally skeptical of MSM coverage of anything allowed the same anti-Bush Mass Media to color their take on things?
After years of conditioning by the liberal media, an awful lot of freepers swallowed this crap hook, line, and sinker.
A pinch of math and I'll park my fingers. If 90% of the people in NOLA got out ahead of the storm, and the remaining people were ALL Black, then those remaining were 10% of the total population and only 15% of the black population. (At a MINIMUM 85 out of 100 blacks got out on their own.) I serously doubt that everyone left behind or who stayed was black, but the media sure did not hesitate to paint it that way. The proportion was likely a lot closer to the cultural makeup of the town--recall that there were those who did not/do not want to leave who are being kicked out still.
Bye now.
You mind clarifying that statement?
"If some people can't stomcach it, then that is their problem."
Funny that you should say this at the end uof your whine.
SO, I'll say to you, if you don't like race baiters to be banned, then don't race bait.
Or, in in other words, If you can't stomach it, it is your problem.
