The Zellocrats. God bless them, maybe one day they'll wake up.
Well, it is easy to see that you have plenty of opinions, likely enough to go around, but exactly why are you being so insulting in your manner?
I didn't say that my opinions were deserving of consideration because they were mine, I said only that opinions stated in open discourse need not be silenced as a means of consolidation.
You suggested a witch hunt, I think most of us can ignore the inane.
Witch hunt? Good grief.
Ignore the inane but give it voice? Permitting virulently racist comments here is the equivalent of publishing them.
If you want a website publishing that crap, I suggest you start your own.
True.

It seems there is a fine line between tolerance of dispicable views and condoning them, eh?
So then, if you won't answer rdb3's question, you must not be entirely shameless.
Chicago's cops are. As big a pit of corruption as Chicago is I cannot imagine such incompetence had it faced a similiar disaster. Certainly there would have been some looting but it would have been quickly contained by the Mayor and Governor RAT though they may be.
These Louisiana clowns are a disgrace even to their bribe grabbing, influence peddling demagogues of past Demcocrats. Huey Long would certainly have handled it infinitely better. I have never seen such incomptetence.
Nagin abandoned the poor of New Orleans, just like Kerry abandoned the people of South Vietnam and just like Cindy Sheehan wants to abandon the people of Iraq.
Nagin and Blanco were aware, I imagine, of this study which shows that poorer people do not move out of a hurricane's path as much as others do, and special steps need to be taken to protect them.
Citizen Hurricane Evacuation Behavior in Southeastern Louisiana: A Twelve Parish Survey Released by The Southeast Louisiana Hurricane Taskforce
And the study's conclusion (page 6) that
The number of low income residents who remain in harm’s way illustrates the need for both
education about the need to travel far enough1
and
providing evacuation assistance to those without means2
1. I don't think Nagin mentioned to his citizens that they needed to evacuate at a distance to high land.
2. I don't have to ask if Nagin sent buses to evacuate them.
You are the one demanding the controls on this one; you should leave that up to the mods.
I do leave it up to the mods. If I see racist crap, I point it out to the mods. They decide.
I'm not demanding anything. You keep twisting this into something about me--a clever tactic, but ultimately dishonest. It's not about me, it's about management. The owner and management of this site do not want the racist crap posted here.
Self-appointed hall monitors are always objectionable.
Rail as you will, I don't think that what has been posted here is virulent; tasteless, yes.
I see no need to continue this, have a good day.
That has nothing to do with me. Admin moderator made a comment on an earlier thread:
You all have to let us know of this, it's impossible for us to read every comment, but as soon as you notify us, we'll take action.
Rail as you will, I don't think that what has been posted here is virulent; tasteless, yes.
That speaks volumes about you.
