Jackson, Sharpton, and every ratings mongering newsperson and everyone else who thinks its a racist timed response.
These guys are capitalizing on our current social trend "everybody's a victom of something" they see poor people who happen to be a majority of black and twist it to a racist point of view. They want to say its because the victoms were black that america does not care about them. The fact is they were poor and that is why they are victoms of the storm. They chose to believe that someone else was going to save their butts and gave up their self reliance for goverment support.

The question you need to asks yourself before blaming or supporting someone is "If it was you in those people shoes what would you have done?"

I have read survivalist stories and all the experts agree that those who chose to help themselves have a better survival rate than those who choose to wait for help to arrive.

To answer my own question if it was me I would have left before the storm regardless of resource because poor is poor wether it be in a devastated city or a highway far away.
