But he consistently writes articles that render our city unrecognizable.<BR/><BR/>Last year, he wrote about parades being bascially a white thing and that all the black people were gone.<BR/><BR/>He didn't watch parades where I was watching them. Maybe he was watching at the Boston Club.Mr. Cliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11109771562167423540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15755953.post-18034628108925647592007-02-07T17:42:00.000-06:002007-02-07T17:42:00.000-06:00I want to be you when I grow up!

Adam N...Thank you so much for this great analysis. Adam Nossiter is a wanker. I recently wrote at Daily Kos about one of his previous articles, quoting some demography about declining population levels in NOLA and quoting a retired economist to imply that perhaps it was a "blessing in disguise" that those poor folks who left after Katrina were now in a better position in the diaspora. It was disgusting.<br /><br />Also, thank you for this wonderful blog. I'm a New Yorker who loves New Orleans and the NOLA blogs are a great revelation for me. It's so difficult for folks outside of the area to get real news on what is going on. The NOLA blogs do a great deal to help us understand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15755953.post-50649158433619332472007-02-06T23:17:00.000-06:002007-02-06T23:17:00.000-06:00By the end of the year we could have all worked to...By the end of the year we could have all worked together to decrease crime by 75% and they would run this same article.

Raphael's comments reflect his personal disappointment concerning the march. But, I think the part I quoted from the article implies that the march was by whites, for whites. <br /><br />The conclusion the author wants the reader to make is: "After a white woman was killed, thousands of white people marched on city hall."da po' boyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639638708282388176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15755953.post-52614398940252965832007-02-06T16:38:00.000-06:002007-02-06T16:38:00.000-06:00The one point they didn't make is the nearly every...The one point they didn't make is the nearly everyone involved in decision making is black.<br /><br />The Mayor, most of the City Council, the Chief, the DA, the Sheriff.mominemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517025007146886987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15755953.post-45452286896117737032007-02-06T13:56:00.000-06:002007-02-06T13:56:00.000-06:00Actually I thought the article was dissing the bla...Actually I thought the article was dissing the black community for not turning out in greater numbers even though the majority of murder victims are black.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15755953.post-23807585319567853772007-02-06T13:25:00.000-06:002007-02-06T13:25:00.000-06:00Damn.
