Dude , what are you talking about???

Houston has one too and how well did that work...
1. mile long lines at the gas pump
2. interstates traffic clogged

People were stranded in Houston too trying to evacuate... Luckily they didn't get hit by Rita when it was catagory 5

1) So?
2) That doesnt mean anything other than that people who decided to evacuate on their own decided to head north...when they could have easily headed south or west to avoid the hurricane.

By the way, Im interesting in reading what you have to say re: http://elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=429477

Then explain to me how you mobilize enough busses on a Saturday to rescue thousands of people on Sunday, when the people driving the busses are also evacuating???

I keep hearing this about busses but it's also silly

Then again , what's been going on after the hurricane is that bus drivers ahave been skipping people of color. There was a report on XM that some dudes actually put a gun to a bus drivers head and FORCED him to drive black folks to Houston...

Once again , the busses would have done nothing in that short of time and wouldn't have gooten the people who needed it anyway

You tell the bus driver to add his family to the bus before stopping to pick up evacuees. You then are able to evacuate the expensive bus as well as people.

scotsman said it best...
While his argument may be valid (if you eliminate any race the crime rate will drop as all races contribute to it) he is using a stereotypical conservative racist view that only black people commit crimes. I find the comment apprehensible and morally crooked. Had he chosen "the poor" or "Lower class" he wouldn't have gotten as dramatic a backlash, but due to his choice of an openly bigotted response I understand the harsh criticism.

And this:

Nagin forces out Compass

Nagin forced Compass out
Chief fired after heated confrontation

'He had tears in his eyes. He didn't want to go.'


By Trymaine D. Lee

After announcing his retirement Tuesday, New Orleans Police Superintendent Eddie Compass told several high-ranking officers that he had been forced out by Mayor Ray Nagin, the officers said Wednesday.


They said Compass told them the decision came on the heels of a heated confrontation with the mayor. The officers spoke only on condition that they not be named.

Reached Wednesday by e-mail, Nagin said that those accounts were "inaccurate."

Compass could not be reached for comment.

At a hastily called news conference Tuesday with Nagin in attendance, Compass announced that he was retiring. When asked by a reporter whether Compass was being forced out, Nagin said no.

But after the announcement, Compass returned to a cruise ship where he and other displaced officers had been living, where they say he told them he had been forced to resign.

"He was going around telling officers, including myself, it wasn't his doing, that he would've never quit," said a high-ranking officer who asked not to be named. "He had tears in his eyes. He didn't want to go."

Another officer said Compass told him, "You work at the pleasure of the mayor. This was not my decision."

Nagin later named Assistant Superintendent Warren Riley as acting superintendent.

Officers said Compass told them that he and Nagin had an angry confrontation Tuesday morning, hours before Compass announced his retirement, which he said would begin after a transition period of up to 45 days.

Compass has come under increasing fire because of the Police Department's response to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, in which some officers were seen looting a store and 249 officers left their posts.

At the news conference, the two men were amicable, with Nagin calling Compass' retirement, after 26 years on the force, good for his family and bad for the city.

Nagin wished Compass well, calling him a hero and saying that he hoped Compass would at least send him a Christmas card during the holidays.

Compass seemed to fight back tears. Handlers shuffled Nagin off in one direction, Compass in another.

Even before Katrina, both Nagin and Compass had come under pressure, dealing with controversies over alleged underreporting of crime statistics in the 1st District, the enforcement of the residency rule for officers, and Compass' hiring of members of the Nation of Islam to do sensitivity training for the Police Department. The city also had seen a substantial rise in the murder rate in 2005.


Reporters Martha Carr and David Meeks contributed to this report.

lol @ this thread.

i knew he was forced out. you could see it in his eyes, the man had too much dedication to what he was doing. and its a damn shame, he seemd like a great person.

I did read your first post where you stated who demanded the show to be terminated.

Then, of course, you have far-left hypocrites calling for his show to be cancelled.

Quote:
Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) circulated a letter, signed by 10 of his colleagues, demanding that the Salem Radio Network suspend Bennett's show.


And this next one from an actual civil rights leader. Gimme a break.

Quote:
Wade Henderson, the executive director of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, demanded that the show be canceled.


Why is the far left hypocrites?
