It’t true. My family is all from New Orleans, and while most of us left before it hit, my aunt stayed. While she wasn’t in the convention center, or superdome she also suffered. After escaping her house on Tuesday because of the rising water, she went to the bridge, where she had parked her car. She said there were about 100 other people there with her. She stayed there for 3days, until she was recued. In those 3 days, everyday and night the helicopters were flying right over them, at night time shining here lights on them, and in three days they dropped absolutly nothing. She says if it wasn’t for the looters, they wouldn’t have had anything to eat or drink. After they were rescued, they were given 1 gatorade and some MRIs. And then made to sleep on the ground while waiting for a bus to come. After hearing her story, I truly believe that if they where white, they would not have been there that long, and without food.
