Just once would I like to see these "black leaders" stand up and speak out against thier own, especially when its so cut and dry like it is down there.

I grew up in the city of Detroit and fully understand the injustices of the past, but this "gotta keep it real" buddy system has got to go! It also sucks that they blame Bush for this, but then again, whats new, everything is Bushs fault. I dont' want this to happen, but if a guardsmen shots a black person for looting down there, all hell is going to break loose, so lets pray, pray HARD, that it doesn't happen. The last thing we need is a circus down there w/ Jesse Jackson, Rev Al, Quasme Ifunma (spelling, yeah right) and Lewis Farakahn, what an additonal tragedy that would truely be 
It is interesting, that you listed FOUR racist people and yet they are labeled as "black leaders". That is like calling David Duke a white leader.
You all need to realise that the NAACP does not represent every African-American in this country and to label this as such is a disgrace to all the others. You all have to realise is that these leaders have a thier own personal agenda's and they are using the disaster to promote it.
