Pretty shameful behavior.

Our New Orleans sisters and brothers make me sooooo pround.*sigh*

[sheana]

haha pround=proud

"People were just shouting at us, we were basically getting racially abused all the time"

Hmmm. The national media in America never reported any of this racism that was to be found in New Orleans.

[micho]

The only racism we heard of was towards black people.

The only racism we heard of was towards black people.

That's because, in the worldview of liberals, only whites can ever be racists--and they see that as true by definition (in other words, they aren't denying that Blacks may feel hate in their hearts towards Whites, they simply do not consider such feelings to be a manifestation of racism, based on their definition of the term.)

[John Jorsett]

A man standing next to him threatened to get a "gun out and shoot all the white people".

I wonder what excuse Celine Dion would have for this? Perhaps the man was justified, in that he'd never had the opportunity to shoot white people earlier in his life, and was bitter about it.

Unable to sit down, move, eat or drink, he says "people were just shouting at us, we were basically getting racially abused all the time". A man standing next to him threatened to get a "gun out and shoot all the white people".

This sounds as if there were quite a few more than a miniority of hateful black people there. The more educated blacks left town. To me it seems that our govt's coddling and feeding those who won't work has only made their outlook worse on life and made them resent whites instead of being thankful.

[Main Street]

Since this catastrophic disaster hit New Orleans the liberal media has inundated us with one baseless accusation and story after another of (white) racism against the black victims. They even are saying that our president 'Hates black people." Then I saw this story of real and blatant open racism occurring from an eye witness account that for some reason the liberal media has not reported. The liberal double standards are there for a reason, I suppose. After all the Democratic Party wouldn't exist without an agenda based on double standards.

[claudiustg]

Y'all come back!

[Ciexyz]

Kudos to this young man for his fortitude and bravery.

[Main Street]

Agreed. But if "they aren't denying that Blacks may feel hate in their hearts towards Whites," then why aren't there any U.S. liberal media reports of these eyewitnesses accounts of some "Blacks hate towards Whites"?

[Mulch]

When I saw the rabble that was being herded in to the Superdome I knew it was going to be a scary place for a white person. Kind of like telling a white person they would have to spend the night in East St. Louis.

[Truthsayer20]

Can you imagine the outcry if white folks had been shouting this kind of racial abuse at black people?

[Truthsayer20]

Oh, and why hasn't any of this been reported in the US media?

[af_vet_1981]

Pretty shameful behavior.

I think it reflects the real racism in America.

[Names Ash Housewares]

Im sure that Jesse Jackson will address this racism towards white people soon.

[Smarti Pants]

The simple truth of the matter is that there is racism on both sides. Sad, but true. They're still fighting the war between the states (not aka: "Civil War") here in the South.

Never before have I ever been so incredibly aware of the color of my skin. Never.

[sourcery]

The simple truth of the matter is that there is racism on both sides.

That's only true if one defines "racism" the way most normal people would. Liberals are not normal people.
