Racial Pig. The African American community should be outraged.

It's amazing anyone can get away with that $hit. If a white guy said that somewhere like Salt Lake City should be always be a vanilla city, he'd be media-crucified the next day.

<Table><FONT size=+2>Storms Payback From God, Nagin Says</FONT>
Mayor Faults
War, Blacks' Infighting
<FONT size=-1>By Brett Martel
Associated Press
Tuesday, January 17,
2006; A04
</FONT>
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 16 -- Mayor C. Ray Nagin suggested Monday that hurricanes
Katrina and Rita and other storms were a sign that "God is mad at America" --
and at black communities, too, for tearing themselves apart with violence and
political infighting.</P>
"Surely God is mad at America. He sent us hurricane after hurricane after
hurricane, and it's destroyed and put stress on this country," Nagin said as he
and other city leaders marked Martin Luther King Jr. Day.</P>
"Surely he doesn't approve of us being in Iraq under false pretenses. But
surely he is upset at black America also. We're not taking care of
ourselves."</P>
Nagin, who is African American, also promised that New Orleans will be a
"chocolate" city again. Many of the city's black neighborhoods were heavily
damaged by Katrina.</P>
"It's time for us to come together. It's time for us to rebuild New Orleans
-- the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans," the mayor said. "This city
will be a majority-African American city. It's the way God wants it to be. You
can't have New Orleans no other way. It wouldn't be New Orleans."</P>
Nagin described an imaginary conversation with King, the late civil rights
leader.</P>
"I said, 'What is it going to take for us to move on and live your dream and
make it a reality?' He said, 'I don't think that we need to pay attention any
more as much about other folks and racists on the other side.' He said, 'The
thing we need to focus on as a community -- black folks I'm talking about -- is
ourselves.' "</P>
Nagin said he also asked: "Why is black-on-black crime such an issue? Why do
our young men hate each other so much that they look their brother in the face
and they will take a gun and kill him in cold blood?"</P>
The reply, Nagin said, was "We as a people need to fix ourselves first."</P>
Nagin also said King would have been dismayed with black leaders who are
"most of the time tearing each other down publicly for the delight of many."</P>
A day earlier, gunfire erupted at a parade to commemorate King's birthday.
Three people were wounded in the daylight shooting amid a throng of mostly black
spectators, but police said there were no immediate suspects or witnesses.</P></table>

Fine with me. As a member of the "vanilla" society, I can easily find another city to spend my tourist dollars. I'm sure a lot of other "vanilla" folks with MONEY and professional organizations feel the same.
Moron.

<H1 class=Headline>New Orleans Mayor Sorry For 'Chocolate City' Remark</H1>
<DIV class=posted>POSTED: 9:46 am EST January 18, 2006</DIV>
</P>
<DIV class=StoryBody><B class=Dateline>NEW ORLEANS -- [/b]Mayor
Ray Nagin is apologizing for his Martin Luther King Day speech in New Orleans.
</P>Some people were offended after he predicted New Orleans would be a
"chocolate" city again.
</P>Nagin now said he "said some things that were totally inappropriate." He
explained that his speech was directed to a mostly black audience, many of whom
worry they will be shut of the city's rebirth.
</P>Nagin said he meant that blacks were central to the city's history and
culture and ought to be lured back.
</P>New Orleans was more than 65 percent black before Hurricane Katrina
forced about three-quarters of the population to flee. Most of the 125,000 or so
people who have returned are white.
</P>Nagin also apologized for asserting that "God was mad at America."
</P>Nagin said he was caught up in the moment and "said some things that were
totally inappropriate."
</P>During the speech, Nagin, who is black, said the hurricanes that hit the
nation in quick succession were a sign of God's anger toward the United States
and toward black communities, too, for their violence and infighting. He also
said New Orleans has to be a mostly black city again because "it's the way God
wants it to be."
</P>Nagin now said his comments about God were inappropriate and stemmed from
a private conversation he had with a minister.</DIV></table>

Typical political backpedaling. What a jackass!
Probably realized without his "vanilla" constituents he'd be out of a job.
