Letter From a New Orleans Native - Hit & Run : Reason.com
There were not only rapes, but gangrapes of children who were then killed. My female cousins were assaulted and barely escaped as some kind bystanders tried to help them only to then be beaten by the gangs. They finally left and hid around the city wherever they could and YES, they heard the gunfire and SAW gangs of mostly young boys with assault weapons who not only fired at each other, but anything that moved including aircraft. They are all safe in Jackson now but they will be traumatized the rest of their lives. These are church-going, strong-willed caring young adults who have lost faith in everything they used to believe in. I personally lost faith in my idiot government a long time ago, having Curious George for a President was ALWAYS a disaster waiting to happen. But I also now view the media with distrust AND disgust after reading your biased column. How dare your magazine call itself "Reason"? You should call it "Stupid Fairy Tales". tupperware catalogue

Speaking of reader responses, someone who read this piece sent me this e-mail this morning: What a glossed over line of horseshit. Now I remember why I no longer subscribe to your magazine. [Because you started reading it online for free? -ed.] Next time you write an article say to yourself "I work for Reason, let me keep in mind what that word actually means". It means that you let the facts, tupperware catalogue not your agenda or your wishes, drive your conclusions. Your article is written like a sportswriter who never saw the fight, but assumes they all pretty much turn out the same so he picks a winner and improvises. You said "In New Orleans there have been some genuine first-hand accounts of violent assaults, but as Matt Welch has reported in Reason, the rumor mill has been working overtime as well". Are you fucking kidding? I'm starting to believe O'sullivan's rule applies here: that any organization that is not explicitly right will go left over time. Do you really dismiss how incredibly crime ridden New Orleans became? If that was your child or sister getting raped and murdered in that dome would you be babbling off this squishy shit? The first rule of an honest man is that you are willing to accept the facts of reality tupperware catalogue - even if they are the less wholesome, feel-good type facts. And the fact here is that race matters. The fact here is that New Orleans turned into the night of the living dead and every white person feared for their lives. Ask the British tourist trapped inside that dome. Thank god they were rescued before they were completely slaughtered and their woman brutally raped. tupperware catalogue In our country this is incomprehensively horrible. But in lower Africa it is commonplace. When I think of that one 14 year old girl that was literally raped to death I picture your dumb ass with that stupid candide's smile pregnant with the positive spin you're dying to blurt out. How many rapes and murders can you ignore to make yourself feel good? So now all you have is that the government didn't get the job done. Nice. When you leave race out of this equation you become a government lackey since political correctness implies coercive force. In case you're wondering, I didn't bother to respond.
Ah, attack a column on unsubstatiated news with more shocking unsubstantiated news. And an Ad Hominim (or Ad Magazinim) roundhouse as well! Brilliant! What a wonderful way to get you're point across! Perhaps tupperware catalogue we can do new Springer-esque show where trolls and crybabies slap each other. Yes, we all KNOW that a large number tupperware catalogue of inhuman atrocities occured in NOLA, that's what happens when society on any scale collapses. But news organizations in this day and age have a record of spewing out the most horrifying and gut-wrenching stories for the sake on sensationalism and ratings. This isn't about news at all. Fox, CNN, And MSNBC are entertainment channels. They need to be reminded of this fact regularly. Attacking Reason for pointing that out from time to time is simply silly. Also, if I had just gone through the horror of NOLA and had several family members brutalized and killed, calling a libertarian magazine tupperware catalogue with, let's face it, a modest circulation would not be very high on my list. Just sayin'.
Ok, tupperware catalogue this guy's reply just tipped my BS-o-meter over the scale. If anyone is telling "Stupid Fairy Tales," it's him. Also, Reason is an opinion magazine, the ar
