Speaking of Disgusting
Repent America says that God "destroyed" New Orleans because of Southern Decadence, the gay festival that was to have taken place in the city over the Labor Day weekend.
An African Methodist preacher suggested at a recent public rally yesterday that Katrina was a "black" hurricane wreaking retribution on the deep south for its centuries of racist behavior.
That's not only ignorant, it's mistaken on the facts. New Orleans is about 70% black. And given the general demographics of who would and would not have had the means to get out, I'd guess that New Orleans is well over 90% black post-Katrina. That is, it's who the good minister would say are the victims of centuries of oppression that Katrina is punishing.
