Eh? Who brought up the subject of race? You did. I never spoke about race, until you brought it up. My point was that there is a criminal element that is running rampant in NO and that the article saying talking about the TYPE of person that was left had a really good point. If all of your educated, people of means, got out, who's left? The invalids and people who don't have means, meaning the poor people, are the ones who didn't get out. Now poor people are more likely to commit crime (that's a statistical fact). So it's not surprising that you have this rampant criminal activity and roving bands of gangs wreaking havoc. Now if most of the poor happen to be black, does that make this whole issue a racism deal? I don't believe so, but clearly you think there is a whiteman's conspiracy at work. I think that is utter bunk.
