Something I would GUARANTEE...
If ANY of those crowds in New Orleans started to riot or push and shove each other when the supply trucks arrived, EVERY news channel would be showing it over and over again to drive home the point that these were dangerous, lawless people in New Orleans and that the situation was out of control.

Instead, they were orderly, considerate and looked out for the most needy (elderly, children) in the video I saw -- DESPITE being essentially spit on for the better part of a week.

Yet the hate-filled right will talk about nothing but the uncivilized, lawless hoodlums -- most of whom they invent in their own minds.
