"NEW ORLEANS—(BNW) So, a bunch of fools are looting for greed, and as a result, New Orleans’ officials have called off the search-and-rescue mission of tens of thousands of poor people who are dying in their flooded homes in that grief stricken city. It’s obvious that Mayor Ray Nagin is putting white property over Black life, and he's Black!

And, I am sick and tired of the images over and over again of the Nigger who was stealing the plasma TV, and didn’t have electricity to play it. Consider this; when it comes to the Blacks in the country, even in a disaster like this, the press always goes negative on the issue, even when innocent Black people are dying.

The desperation of the poor must not be over looked; it’s immoral to punish good people for the lawlessness of a few thugs when thousands of people are in a live or die situation. People have even been complainting that the cops are doing most of the looting to feed their families. Consider this; if the stuff that is being looted is contaminated in the first place, what is wrong with the poor people taking advantage of it to survive? The insurance companies are going to pay for the shit anyway."
