It's great to have this statistic. So much for the Bush administration let blacks die. I see that more whites died than black in New Orleans during Katrina and won't forget that tidbit the next time we hear some leftist complaining about Republican bigotry in responding to natural disasters.

We'll have to see how Big Media reports the alarming news.

Hope the guys at Accuracy in Media keep us informed.

White residents made up less than a third [28 percent] of the city's population... of 562 [that] have been identified by race... Forty-one percent are white...

It only shows nature is racist. It killed more whites than it should.

[Mark was here]

Some of the bodies were "African-American"?

How could they tell they weren't visiting from Africa or some other place?

How can you tell where someone is born, with out an ID card?

Could some of been African-Africans?

Katrina Death Stats Contradict Racial Complaints

Facts ALWAYS contradict racial compaints.
Democrat's complaints, too.
But I repeat myself.

Some could have been Black-Creole and they look down on African-Americans.

Well, I thought 'hispanics' were white... stupid me... When did 'hispanic' become a race? How is someone from Spain racially different than someone from Portugal or France?

[SlowBoat407]

What a relief. How horrible it would have been if more of the dead had been black. Since so many whites were killed, I guess it's not as bad.

Hmmm?

[N3WBI3]

no no no... it shows nature is 'progressive'

I happened to see a box of Wheaties the other day. It had a picture of Roberto Clemente on the front, with the words "First Hispanic inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame." I always thought that Roberto was Black. Silly me!

Of course, this stat ingnores the hundreds that died in Mississippi, probably most of them white.

"Of the 883 bodies processed so far by medical examiners at St. Gabriel, 562 have been identified by race. Slightly less than half that number - 48 percent - are African-American."

Oopsies. Do you think the liberal fanatics in the media will issue an apology to white America?
