i saw a very nteresting article the other day. This was about the times of the orlando tornado and subsequent floods ect.

there was two pics. in one, there was a white guy, in waist deep water, hold a sack of food. the tab at the bottom says "inhabitant of orlando flees flood, after finding food."

the other one had a BLACK guy fleeing hte flood. the tab said. "inhabitant of orlando flees flood, after looting store"

the press is a representation of the people. people are biased. what do you expect? in australia we have the aboriginals. We try not to be racist, bu they have a reputation for being violant, theiving shits. I dont mean to PERPETRATE that stereotype, but in my store over the last 5 weeks there has been 6 thefts. ALL by aboriginals, singular or in gangs.

its life. theres racism. get over it.
