> Well, then the only explanation for the rampant violence is that they people left in NO were the poor, which statistically has a higher crime rate, which lead to the violence we see there as the chaos escalated.

That's really most of it, and the reason why it's easy to jump to playing the race card, is because as we know, most of the poor in NO are black.

I don't accuse the Bush administration of being racist; they just don't care much about the poor.
