The dark side of black people

LET ME START by saying that if I had my life to live over a thousand times, the one thing I would not change would be my race. I am proud to be a black man. There are times however, when I wish that certain people and I did not share that trait.

For the past few days, the whole world ... well, at least those who have access to satellite and cable television, have been seeing pictures of the virtually total devastation of the cities of the U.S. Gulf Coast by Hurricane Katrina. An estimated 90 per cent of homes in New Orleans have been destroyed by flood waters and more than 100 people have been confirmed dead.

We see people standing on the roofs of their submerged homes desperate to be rescued, others being airlifted to safety, and we have heard tear-jerking stories of families losing their loved ones. But in all of this, we have also seen the really dark side of black people.

The day after the hurricane passed, there were reports of looting but network reporters had been saying that people were looting out of desperation, in search of food and water. A lot they knew.

The pictures I have been seeing are of people - black people - stealing shoes, diapers, and television sets. Not food and definitely not water. Not unless the armfuls of clothing, shoes, and appliances I see people wading through the streets with count as food and water.

Now, if all the looters were looting out of desperation, how desperate were the guy and girls I saw toting several boxes of size 13 Nikes? How desperate was the fellow with the stack of diapers? What, is it that he has several babies at home suffering from loose bowels? What am I talking about, what home? Everything is under water and what isn't, has been totally destroyed.

Plasma TV?

And just what are those guys stealing the plasma television sets going to be watching when there is no power in the entire city?

Desperation? Yeah, right. I am beginning to believe that black people, no matter where in the world they are, are cursed with a genetic predisposition to steal, murder, and create mayhem.

The entire firearm department at a Wal-Mart department store, for example, was cleaned out and the looters used the stolen weapons to rob people. How low is that? Everybody is suffering and the black people would seek to rob people who are suffering just like themselves.

No white looters?

And it has nothing to do with poverty. Where are the white people in all this? I am sure there are poor white people living in New Orleans, Biloxi and the other towns affected by what has been going on. Is it that the media are not showing pictures of them looting and robbing? Or is it that they are too busy trying to stay alive, waiting to be rescued, and hiding from the blacks.

And you know what? Even if the poor whites were looting and robbing, wouldn't it be nice if the blacks could have made them the only ones doing it

Just once, I would like for us blacks to take the high road in situations like this, where instead of showing our darkest side, we put our best foot forward. But I guess that would be too much to ask, too much of a case of wishful thinking.

well, a majority of the people (that werent elderly and/or disabled) that stayed behind to weather the storm (either by choice or because they had no finances to go anywhere else), are mostly black people. Yes, they were shown on tv stealing boxes of Nike shoes, tv's, shopping carts FULL of stuff from Walmart, etc BUT, they did also show white people looting too. I dont know if white people were stealing tvs or not, but they were shown breaking into stores & stealing food (and im sure some stole unneccessary things as well).

so when people say that the media is only showing or mostly showing black looters, i think well, 90% of the people left down there are black. i dont believe it to be a racist thing. HOWEVER, i do think how the media call white people "finding" food & black people "stealing" it is fucked up.

just me 2 cents anyways.

I agree with some of that but...

Diapers ?? you really think people are stealing diapers for profit.. ? cmon now.. do you have kids ? You need LOTS OF DIAPERS !!!

So what if they are stealing nike's. Have you ever walked 4 days in wet soggy shoes and nothing to dry your shoes off in ??

In many cases the police TOLD people to loot stores.. or opened them looted them , then gave them to looters..

Imagine friday was payday for you. Your job is gone, your boss is gone, your car is gone, even your bank is gone.. and it doesn't look very hopefull you will get ANY of those things back in the near future.. Then you go out looking for water and food for your family and find cops loading flatscreen's in the back of police cruisers.. You look insdie and all the food and water is gone , but there are nike's and booze.. Guess what ? I'm gonna steal those nike's and booze and try and trade them for some formula and diapers from whoever got those first.

I think alot of stuff some people consider " unnecesary " would be very necesarry if they were int he same boat..
