I was watching the looting last night and yelling at the tv "PLEASE SHOW SOME WHITE PEOPLE LOOTING!!!" Cause I'm not so thrilled with the idea that the entire world is watching and thinking that it's just the blacks who are pillaging.
But as my wife pointed out, it probably is just the blacks who are pillaging because the white people have left. This is Louisiana. The people with enough money or support (the white people) got out when they had the chance. The only people still there are the ones who are too poor or alone to leave. And they're mostly all black.
