That's a great example of what I'm talking about.... it's always... "the other person thinks....." or "the other person says....." instead of saying we need to get past this shit, and work on helping these people first, making sure they have food water and shelter...... then deal with the other issues and clean our act up.
It's like when I listened to Springer this AM on my way home from work and he played some of Limbaugh, where Limbaugh had a caller saying (and I paraphrase) "These people hit the jackpot, we're giving those blacks and poor people designer clothes and money so they can trade it all in for crack?" and Limbaugh not only agreed but added more to it by saying "this will really make your day, we're even giving them credit cards." (Red Cross cards so that they can buy food and find shelter when they get relocated..... but I guess Limbaugh and his audience are right they'll all buy crack with it.)
Yeah, these poor people flipping lose EVERYTHING wade for days in raw sewage and filth, starve, watch people die in front of their eyes, will have mental scars we can never even imagine.... and we have people calling in on the radio AND radio hosts (most of whom claim to be "Christian" propegating and continuing to push and preach hatred towards victims of the USA's worst natural disaster in whoi knows how long, these self righteous ignorant talk show hosts and their audiences want to begrudge these poor people food, clothing and safety...... from their nice warm homes, as they wear dry clothes and know when and where their next meal is coming from???????
FUCKING GET OVER IT AND DO SOMETHING, DONATE WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD, EVEN IF IT'S ONLY BLOOD OR PRAYERS..... AND BE THANKFUL YOU ARE ALIVE AND DIDN'T GO THROUGH IT.... DON'T BEGRUDGE THESE PEOPLE ANYTHING..... ASK YOURSELF WHAT WOULD CHRIST DO????? WHAT WOULD YOUR GOD THINK OF THE HATRED AND PETTINESS YOU DISPLAY?

I still don't think you're understanding me. I was trying to point out the inherent racism in the reaction of the country. Unless you expect me to just look past racism, which I really don't see being of any help. One thing I will not stick my head in the sand over is racism.
