Looting/scavenging/liberating supplies is different from attacking any and everyone I never heard of any kind of reports of that nature. You seem confused in your own mind what exactly you want to convey. </div></div>

I understand the principles y'all are getting at, and i agree using words like &quot;looting&quot;, is indeed condescending and prejudicial, and only reinforces negative racial stereotyping.

but -- i really don't think A.C is racist. He is typically the FIRST one on the ground, in any situation - he was the FIRST one to reach NOLA when Katrina hit, when our stupid so-called gov't had no presence and no empathy. When nobody else was there at all, A.C was the one distributing food &amp; water &amp; reporting to us the truth about what was <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic"> really</span></span> going on down there ......

he also was the FIRST one, again, who got to Haiti as well. He has also been calling attention all week to the fact that rescue efforts seem to not be reaching the regular Haitian people, broadcasting to the world that he is seeing inequity in the rescue efforts.... seems to me he is one of the few that reports the truth, about what's really going on, not just jumping on the bandwagon of what the &quot;rescuers&quot; want us to believe.....

Desparate, starving people have every right for survival, which includes looting damaged buildings for things needed for survival, basic necessities....but people who just take THINGS (like a bolt of fabric) just because they can, is a different story....what are they going to do with it?...sell it?...who is even buying things now?

I do not feel that any racist person would volunteer to go to Haiti anyway....they are risking their own life to help others....if they had a fear of Black people, why would they even go there?

Are you there, Blu? </div></div>

LOL don't know y you keep posting this mess.
I didn't say there was widespread violence and I did not post any quotes to show that there were widespread violence.

Only a crazy person would continue to fight windmills that exists only in his.her imagination.

Sorry, Ja. Jewel, but this &quot;blind&quot; gratefulness disturbs me.

The American founder of a leading Haitian charity school for street children pleaded guilty today to charges of pedophilia and admitted having sex with eight minors in Haiti.

Douglas Perlitz, 40, faces up to 30 years in prison and a $US250,000 fine after travelling from the US to Haiti at various times between 2001 and 2008 to have sex with the eight victims.
