RE:"The reality is going to be a lot different for those taking in 'refugees' with open arms than is being portrayed on the boob tube" Hoe yeah...and the Houston Police have to be cringing. The joke is that New Orleans may well end up the safer place.

Did any of those slums have blacks and hispanics mixed? Back in s ga there was this hispanic that liked to be called burrito boy, he loved his home, anyways we went into burger king one night and burrito boy said I have to get out of here guys, and me and my indian friend said why burrito boy - are you feeling like taco hell instead - he said don't you see - there is nothing but blacks in here - us mexicans and blacks do not get along - they will hurt me - we thought he was joking - but he convinced us he was very serious and he was very afraid. It will be interesting if lots of NO blacks and texan mexicans get mixed up and are forced to live together - this may help them overcome some of those fears. Driving through many florida towns the past few months I have seen groups of mexicans and groups of blacks walking the streets, but I do not recall seeing the first group of blacks and mexicans mixed together - isn't america supposed to be the melting pot? Anyways one of our black friends back in Ga said it was going to get ugly as more and more hispanics came intp that city, because there wasn't enough white guilt money to go around - HAHA! He was so funny! That comedy central show - Mind of Mencia has blacks on it right? And the chapelle show had hispanics no?
