Passion Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 That is pretty damn sad.... But I highly doubt that both photo captions were written by the same person, so the point is moot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passion Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Well, they are looting.... Its up to the reader to interperet whether in a situation like this whether or not thats wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 This is a trajedy, so I'm not going to start arguing with people who think the media is on a racist witch hunt. Like Passion said, those captions probably weren't written by the same person, it's just a case of whoever wrote the caption for the white people is not too smart.

They showed a guy who stole 10 pairs of jeans. Come on do you really have to do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest marlins02 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 i remember watching fox news the other day and bill o'reilly i think it was started mentioning "thugs" who were going out to loot and as soon as he said "thugs" they showed a shot of a young black man doing nothing other than looking at a car that got completely f***ed up by the storm.

Accord Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 They interviewed the attorney general of Louisiana on Fox News yesterday and he said that there is a special clause in the law which states something about survivial and how looting is perfectly okay as long as it is basic necessities such as food, water and clothing, he even went on to say that you're even allowed to take shoes from shoe stores as long as they fit you, but if they don't fit you then it's a crime.
