A whole lot...I mean, of the first 562 victims, almost HALF of them were black! I guess Kanye was right again!

can you bring back your thread where you said it wasnt a very bad disaster by deaths

12/27/2005 5:13:20 PM

no because you havent trolled it in the last 90 days

can you comment on this thread and the link at all? or do you immediately dismiss it for whatever reason

12/27/2005 5:34:20 PM

oh did you mean for this to be a serious thread? im sorry, i had no idea

12/27/2005 5:40:46 PM

does the "dot gov" in the link hold any weight for you at all?

12/27/2005 5:52:03 PM

is anyone disagreeing with those statistics?

12/27/2005 5:53:54 PM

no i guess you're right...nobody at all claimed that new orleans would've gotten help quicker if it wasnt predominantly black...nobody at all compared black people to holocaust victims...nobody at all it was a race thing...so I guess you're right, nobody disagrees with those statistics

12/27/2005 5:56:29 PM

no one ever claimed there werent a lot of black people in new orleans
or that when a disaster hits an area with a lot of black people, a large percentage of the dead are black people

nothing in that link provides any new evidence that they would have gotten help quicker if they were white


do you see now why i didnt think this was serious?

12/27/2005 6:04:27 PM

what is kanye right about?
haha
so what there were alot of black people in new orleans?
who cares?

12/27/2005 6:07:20 PM

stupid pothead thinks he's black

Wow, if only half of the deaths were black, and almost 70% of the population was black, it seems that black people were under-represented in the death statistics.

12/28/2005 11:16:28 AM

I'm with JonHGuth

I don't think you should ever comment on Katrina shit when you flat out said that it wasn't one of the most devastating natural diseasters to hit the US.

12/28/2005 11:59:00 AM

The whole point was about Bush helping the people who were still alive.

Why was this thead made?

Because Kanye is right.

12/28/2005 1:14:45 PM

Was he? How?

I thought he was just being an asshole to draw attention to a poorly managed crisis situation that, if the statistics of which were interpreted by a biased individual, could be miscontrued to be a racist act by the government to leave a shit ton of black people to die.

can we move this to chit chat

12/29/2005 3:16:42 PM

the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 was the greatest flood in the United States prior to Hurricane Katrina's subsequent flooding

the death toll on THAT disaster was 246
and it cost America $400 million

mistreatment of black people in the refugee camps was rampant
many were detained and forced at gunpoint to work under slave-like conditions on the relief efforts

the suppression of this information in the media by Herbert Hoover partly led to the shift of black voters from Republican to Democrat

So you mean, like the 400 busses the fucking mayor left sitting empty, because he REFUSED TO USE THEM, demanding air conditioned cruise coaches instead? That account for several hundred of those victims?

Or the Governor of LA who wouldn't get off her own ass and ask for federal help?

The people that died those first few days were a result of the COMPLETE incompetence of their own local officials.

The people who died after those first few days were a result of the COMPLETE incompetence of FEMA and the fed.

No one is blameless, but it has nothing to do with it being a minority area, and everything to do with the fact that every fucking politician in Louisiana is corrupt as fuck and the whole state has been a political fuckup for decades.

Oh, btw, this is what happens in Neo Liberal areas. Yea boy, pure liberalism works about as well as christian conservativism does.

completely agree - this state local and state goverment is simply embarrassing. nagin is an idiot thug that somehow won by the black vote and blanco is completely inept at best. i was on a plane the other day and nagin happened to be on it too. it was everything i could do not to walk up to him and punch him in the face. he did get a bag down for an older lady.... at least there is some job he could do right.

also liked how aaron broussard told the pumping station operators to shut the pumps off and leave... now why did my tax money build those stations again???

The only more liberal city in the US, by representation, is San Francisco. It's definitely megouberliberal.

It's megaubergimmiemyentitlements-- not liberal, per se.
