"We don't expect to see looting"
I have a thought on this, but am having difficulty putting it together concisely, so bear with me, here.
I have honestly begun to believe that the MSM, with their out of focus tunnel vision on so many things, collectively thought that focussing so heavily on mayhem, and painting a picture that only included black faces in the looting and shooting "mobs" during the aftermath of Katrina, was somehow an indictment of our society as a whole, as well as a "racist" southern state. It was meant to be a compelling cry for more state intervention, to show us all how bad we still were. It didn't quite come across that way, and now the MSM is suddenly reporting looting in the aftermath of every hurricane, in an attempt at rationalizing away the messy perception that they created themselves, unintentionally.
Does this make any sense at all?
It makes sense yes, but the damage cannot be un-done.
