Yup, we heard him correctly. Some family and I were talking about how certain behaviors are getting exposed to world such as the "so poor, so black" statement in the video footage. All these years later, things haven't changed much.
That's a damn shame. It's bad enough that this tragedy is still going on...But for folks in the media to come on TV and expose their RACIST and FUCKED UP views of the world...man, it gets frustrating and irritating quick.

Unfortunately racism is reality. It's unacceptable but at the same time, even if I'm offended I can't even say that I'm surprised. I guess now people are showing their true colors, and it's a damn shame it took a tragedy like this one to open some people's eyes, those who were too complacent thinking we already had arrived. But some still ain't learnt a damn thing though. When you have crooked ass pastors supporting Bush like T.D . Jakes, it's sad people, so sad!

I guess it was just the computer I was trying to listen to it on. It's still there.
I'm SURE that sentiment is shared by many, many others.
