There was no way this wasn't going to get turned into a racial issue. Everything else does, why would this be anything different. ;)

Did you see the looks on Meyers and Murphys faces in reaction to that off the wall statement? It sure seems they dont agree with what that guy is saying!

I can understand his frustration. I cannot understand why the troops weren't on alert as soon as they figured out that a category 5 hurricane might hit New Orleans. They should have had troops controlling the area and offering assistance, that night or the next morning. They knew those levees would most likely fail, and that many people were unable to leave for lack of transportation and mobility. I also had to wonder if it was lack of compassion for those that are poor and/or of color. I hope that is not the case, because I hate to think that any American people lost their lives for that reason.
Either way, two things are for sure. Bush dropped the ball and a whole new lot of victemcrats will emerge from this. Now they can blame Bush and the government for their problems rather than nature. I hate victemcrats. I hate that the administration made us look like a$$holes to the rest of the world.

Are You Kidding Me?????? That Guy Is A Huge Jackass.... It Is A Shame That Everything Bad At Some Point Has To Turn Into A Racial Issue...i Am Sure When The Cia Was Making This Hurricane In Its Lab It Said "lets Send Send It To La So We Can Take Out Some Black People." What A Joke....when Something Bad Happens We All Need To Come Together To Help The People Who Need Help And Start The Rebuilding Process....jesse Jackson, Al Sharpden, And Who Ever Else Wants To Strart Some Shit Need To Stay Away And Not Make This Into A Racial Issue.....oh And One More Thing, If Anyone Remembers The Tsunami Was In A Country That Is Mostly Muslim But We Still Helped Them....where Is The Aid For The Us Going To Come From, France, Mexico, Russia, Maybe Some Other Pussy Country Will Step Up And Help But I Don't Think So!!!!!!! People Need To Step Up Handle Business And Stop Crying About Things That Are Not True

For the record, I believe that is rapper Kayne West going off-script with the Bush bashing, and comedians Mike Myers and Chris Tucker obviously stunned by West's outburst.

He is an idiot, that is for sure. They didn't show this in the clip, but I read that he was upset because the media had been showing black people looting and white people asking for assistance. I don't watch TV, so I don't know how bias is being exhibited.
Yes, Mother Nature caused the hurricane, not the government, but the government is in charge of responding to the people. Riddle me this: If New Orleans and Mississippi had been attacked or invaded, would it take 4 days for troops to arrive?
I hope this is not a reflection of our lack of response time. And furthermore, if they could be there faster given and invasion, why were they so slow to respond to a natural disaster?

And what a profound statement... der..."George Bush doesn't care about black people", how intelligent.
What about the black mayor and the local officials that should have made arrangements for moving the poor and elderly. The incompetence on his and other state officials must be ok for obvious reasons.
A lot of people dropped the ball, not just the federal government. Is there such a thing as white racism because I am feeling the love.

2/3 of the population is black, what color do you think is going to stand out. The government response was slow and they should have contacted the govenor to see if they needed help before they asked for help. Obviously the local officals had no clue about any procedures for federal involvement, but that doen't negate the fact that the feds should be on top of the situation.

Here is a thought: Five days before the levies broke the entire nation warned N.O. that a catastophe of biblical proportions was going to hit the area. This is not a black or white issue it is an intelligence issue and at worst an economic issue. Everyone should have been evacuated....period! White-Black-Rich-Poor....Everybody!
My company's corporate office is located across the bridge and we have several (over 400) employees that lived in the area and in the resurgent downtown district. Everyone survived and is safe. Some may have lost everything but they are safe. Why? Becuase they were smart enough to get the hell out!
Blame Bush....B.S! Blame the damn Mayor that called for 500 buses after the water was waist deep in the streets. Where the hell was he when FEMA was saying get everyone out even if you have to drag them out?
Sure we should have responded sooner but no one needed to be there...citizen, military or police. EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE! I will not even mention that fact that citizens took up arms and began to loot and kill each other and the rescue forces the moment that rain stopped.
This is sad at every level but we cannot blame the government for the stupidity of a few Americans regardless of color.

My thoughts are that the people to blame are, The ones (black/white/oriental,hispanic, all who live there for not preparing better for it when it happens there and around there every year. Poor or Rich. The state officials for being so STUPID for not putting their citizens first and getting all people OUT when told too. The surrounding States for not taking a cut in profit and sending all they had by local helocopter to lower down to people stranded on roof top and walking through water. Instead they RAISED THEIR PRICES.Even a small amount would have better than none at all !!! We all have boats and I know that alot of people out there have row boats, rafts, etc. that could have paddled in and rescued some and even bought in some of their own supplies, water,food,etc. no matter how small of an amount, anything is better than nothing. The ones that decided to steal, rape ,kill made it harder to get help to some ,but not ALL. IF THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY !!!!!!!!!! Most important, Gather some stuff and GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN !!!!! YOUR FAMILY SHOULD BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR IGNORANCE !!!!!! Well thats just my .02 :rollside: Julie P.S. THE IDIOTS ON TV SHOULD BE THERE HELPING INSTEAD OF BEING ON TV BITCHING AND BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE. THEY HAVE MONEY AND RESOURCES. :boxingguy :mad:

I can undertand that this guy is upset but there is NO excuse to make a coment like that. Imagine if I being a white guy would go on TV and say that Jessie Jackson hates white people. I would probably be labeled as a racist after that. Which I am NOT! Racism is a 2 way street and I wish People would realize this.
As for the federal gov. not being there in time, I think that maybe they might have been a little slow to react. But it is always easy to blame someone else for one own mistakes. It just only fits that they blame it on the president.

So many couldn't leave. No car, or no money for gas. Nowhere to go anyway. The first of the month checks hadn't arrived yet so they were not only poor but broke too. No money for a motel and meals....
Keep in mind the levees breaking is what caused the disaster in New Orleans, not the hurricane itself. If the levees had not failed NO would be in pretty decent shape.
As it is now, it will be months before the refugees can go back, and what is left of many homes will have to razed anyway.... :(

Although I wish you were right, you're not, at least about racism being a two way street. Maybe that's the way it SHOULD be, but it's not. Two black guys kill a white guy - murder. Two white guys kill a black guy - hate crime. That's just the way it is. I think the true definition of racism would make it a two way street, but it is not applied that way. Racism is generally determined by the minority, the majority (no matter what color they are) will be blamed for the shortcommings in the system.
