That is nonsense. The mayor and the entire city itself has propped them up with a welfare lifestyle, in which work seems optional. I know it's easier for some people than others, but how can you claim they have no political power?? How many republicans are in charge down there??
You are correcting something I didn't say.
I said that, except for the areas where they are concentrated these people (the ones who are sacking the remains of N.O.) are invisible.
And it's a good thing, too, because IF their fellow Americans, black and white, had a good look at them on a daily basis, they would be in trouble.
