Well, it doesn't surprise me that blacks are using the black card. In this PC world we live in, every race uses anything they think they can use to get an advantage. But the fact of the matter is that race had nothing to do with it. If this hurricane had hit in Texas, the same thing would have happened. POOR PEOPLE would have experienced the brunt of the trauma. The only difference is that in Texas it would have been half white and half Mexican who consisted of that poor group. So maybe the Mexicans would have claimed it was a race thing, but it would have been just as much bullshit as the blacks in NO claiming race was a factor.
