Did Y'all Know Black People were Being Slaughtered During Katrina?

[Monte Cristo]

cacs terrorize everywhere so that analogy a lil flakey

all im sayin is , if you gonna talk like a skrap basher , then be an actual skrap basher . Not some nikka that hate mexicans cuz he get drunk at bars and fight fat paisas

Not once in my anti-Mexican tirades have I claimed to be on that tip

I simply want black people to take the democratic measures now to prevent these people from further flooding the country so that way, in the future, nobody will have to be a skrap basher because Mexicans would be a nonfactor outside of the Southwest

At the rate were going now, this will be a national issue it we don't vote wisely now

Reginald Bell, a black resident, said in a recent interview that he was threatened at gunpoint by two white men there a few days after the storm. The men, on a balcony a few blocks from his home, yelled at him, “We don’t want your kind around here!”

Then one of the men racked his pump-action shotgun, aimed it at Mr. Bell and dared him to be seen again on the streets of Algiers Point, Mr. Bell said. The next day, he said, the men confronted him on his porch while he sat with his girlfriend. They shoved guns — a shotgun and a long-nose .357 Magnum — in the couple’s faces and reiterated their demand.


“I done seen bodies lay in the streets for weeks,” said Malik Rahim, who lives around the corner from Mr. Bell and came to his aid. “I’m not talking about the flooded Ninth Ward, I’m talking about dry Algiers. I watched them become bloated and torn apart by dogs. And they all had bullet wounds.

“We’ve been screaming it from the top of our lungs since those first days, but nobody wanted to listen.”

Mr. Bell said that he went to the police not long after the confrontation with the two gun-wielding white men but no report or action was taken. It was not until last year when he was interviewed by a federal grand jury looking into civil rights violations in post-Katrina New Orleans that people seemed to pay attention, he said.


One case is that of a former Algiers resident, Roland J. Bourgeois Jr., who is white and was accused of being part of one of the vigilante groups. He was recently indicted by the federal government on civil rights charges in the shooting of three black men who were trying to leave the city. According to the indictment, Mr. Bourgeois, who now lives in Mississippi, warned one neighbor that “anything coming up this street darker than a brown paper bag is getting shot.”

The highest-profile case involving the police is the Danziger Bridge shooting in eastern New Orleans, where six days after Katrina, a group of police officers wielding assault rifles and automatic weapons fired on a group of unarmed civilians, wounding a family of four and killing two, including a teenager and a mentally disabled man. The man, Ronald Madison, 40, was shot in the back with a shotgun and then stomped and kicked as he lay dying, according to court papers.

This story made my blood boil. They were firing on a BLACK FAMILY!!!

I still remember the narrative they tried to draw up, about "Dangerous violent gang-members shooting things up in the Superdome" and "Violent Looters" and then the subsequent reports of Katrina Transplants rasing the violent crime rate in other cities. But this my first time hearing about the stories of these militias shooting innocent Black people, and threatning them.

This is the stuff that makes me when people use the term "Coli Militant" as a pejorative towards us on here. Maybe, just frikin maybe, EVERY Black person should have at least a little bit of militancy in them. At least a little. I'm pissed at 1AM. Just pissed....

I don't know how "Black people" on this site can read stories like what OP posted and still be like "You damn Militants ". I'm not on some "Kill all White people" steeze, but stories like this put an ANGER in me. They just light a fire under me. What makes me even angrier is the way those Black folks who complained about the racially charged murders, were being ignored by local and national media. Meanwhile the national media were making poor Black NO residents out to be monsters. Some White people can be so wicked man.....

The guy they based the movie American sniper on bragged about killing dozens in new Orleans during the Katrina fiasco.

That's why I laughed every time they called that scumbag a hero, poetic justice that he was killed by another soldier.

"anything coming up this street darker than a brown paper bag is getting shot.”

Katrina should be a lesson to black people. If society ever collapses, the first things white people will do is start killing black people. Y'all nikkas better make sure you are armed and ready because there are white militias ready to mobilize at the drop of a hat to kill black people the first opportunity they get.

That's what the movie The Purge was about, but black folks missed the hidden message. It was society collapse in which you are allowed to do anything and kill the weak. The weak they were killing were black people.

My boy put me on the movie because I never seen it and he said watch it for the message.

Breh, my girl started looking at me sideways because I started buying guns and going to the range on a regular basis. I found this link last year and it made me realize how fukked we are if shyt ever goes bad:

CPT - Community Preparedness Teams - Oath Keepers



While black people are out here bullshytting, whites are getting prepared and organized in case shyt hits the fan. I signed up for their newsletter and the 3% newsletter just so I can keep up to date with what they're doing. I'm also gonna learn all the shyt they mentioned in their CPT program so that I'm not caught slipping.

These were the same dudes walking around Ferguson while black people were yelling hands up don't shoot:

A lot of black people do know know about the Oath Keepers, there mostly ex/in listed service men, police/retired police officers and regular people who hunt. Some of the Oath Keepers were at the Bundy Ranch and Oregon Standoff.

I went to college in Louisiana and I know a lot of people from NOLA, that were in Katrina and they told me the same stories. It's all true.

New Orleans officers convicted in post-Katrina shooting get new trial
By Ben Brumfield, CNN



Updated 3:30 AM ET, Wed August 19, 2015

The shootings happened on Danziger Bridge six days after much of New Orleans went underwater when Hurricane Katrina hit.
Story highlights

• A federal district judge overturned the convictions in 2013
• He ruled that Justice Department officials had thrown the verdict
• They anonymously posted derogatory comments against the defendants online

(CNN)Five New Orleans police officers convicted of gunning down unarmed people after Hurricane Katrina will get a new trial.

A federal appeals court made the ruling Tuesday, citing the misconduct by two then-federal prosecutors who were accused of anonymously posting derogatory comments against the defendants to local news website NOLA.com.


Their apparent trash talk during the trial torpedoed the validity of the guilty verdicts, a federal court found in 2013. The federal appeals court upheld that ruling.



Danziger Bridge shooting

Danziger Bridge convictions overturned for NOPD officers
In 2005, less than a week after Katrina left the city behind in ruins, police placed a distress call to their colleagues. Officers were being shot at near Danziger Bridge, they said, according to NOLA.com.

Officers responding to the distress call drove up in a rental truck and opened fire on people crossing the bridge on foot. A barrage of bullets killed two people -- one of them a disabled man -- and heavily wounded four more people.

People on the bridge said police ambushed them. The officers were also accused of orchestrating a cover-up after the killings.

But officers said the shooting was in self-defense, that they were fired upon when they arrived and returned fire.

A court disagreed and found the five guilty of 25 counts of civil rights violations. In 2012, a federal judge handed themsentences of six to 65 years in prison. But after the scandal with broke about the Justice officials' alleged online comments, the same judge overturned the convictions in 2013.



Judicial bungles


The case was mired in judicial botches from the onset.

Initially, a state court had put the officers on trial, but a mistrial was declared, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit said in its ruling Tuesday. "The federal government took over the prosecution and has also bungled it," the ruling read.

The anonymous online comments on news articles about the trial may have been an attempt to influence the judge, the appeals court said Tuesday. And he was right tothrow out the convictions, according to its ruling.

A panel of judges for the appeals court confirmed in a 2 to 1 ruling that the officers should get a new trial.

It's slightly deeper than that. Most people are domesticated and after 2 weeks of a SHTF situation would be going looney toons because they are not prepared.......I'm talking suburban families, hipsters, immigrants, etc. Now that's the general population, now take blacj folks, we are just as domesticated and just as less prepared. When the electricity goes out for longer than a week, and then continues . There will be gangs of all stripes and colors roaming. So your statement is halfway right.
