RKMBs Forums .::Important::. Politics and Current Events Barack Hussein Obama in '08?

an assertion that I don't see anyone here challenging much.

How are the two stories different?

The implication of the story you fabricated was that members of the U.S. military, as part of a sanctioned government policy, were trying to prevent African Americans from evacuating New Orleans.

The story you posted as "proof" of that, however, was about a small town police force, acting seemingly on its own with no official federal sanction whatsoever, against people of varying races.

Basically, other than the tie to Katrina, the only thing the two stories have in common is a bridge. In which case, you might as well post the lyrics to Simon and Garfunkel's "Feelin' Groovy" and call THAT proof.

In fact, let me save you the trouble and go one better. Here's a YOUTUBE video of that song, in which people trying to cross a bridge are told "Slow down..."



My god. An actual piece of video footage. Can there BE higher proof than that?
