yes. the above article totally changed my view on new orleans refugees. they don't deserve anything.
I read the whole article and some interesting titbits.
***Nicole Singleton, a 33-year-old mother of six*** Nice, six kids, where are the daddies? Note the plural.
****She had her first child at 16, and says she began shoplifting soon after.......she got caught up with more crime and drugs. She went to jail several times, ......For a time, the children lived with their grandmother on the streets and in abandoned houses**** Must be the system/da white men that make her do such things. How dare they do that to her and her kids?
****Tanya says she told Ms. Singleton, "This is an awesome opportunity. How do you want to deal with the donations?" She says Ms. Singleton dismissed the suggestion that she open a savings account.****** Alcohol/drugs/weeds are more important, you know, she gotta be real to her hommies.
****Shortly after she arrived, Ms. Singleton mentioned she had a boyfriend who was incarcerated in Louisiana. ****** A black dude that is in prison? <gasping for air> We are totally in shock.
****Tanya says she confronted Dot Singleton about allowing her grandchildren to watch violent movies such as "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Halloween," which the Thornbury kids are forbidden to watch. "It promotes negative thinking, negative behavior," Tanya says she told Dot, and said "everyone has to live by the same rules." Dot disagreed. Tanya says she figured that, for the Singletons, "if you see [violence] on the streets, it's no big deal if you see it on TV."***** Them poor white folks, did they ever watch MTV/BET thugs/gangsta music videos?
