race ???????????

I was just on google and i was looking up articles on race and i came across this article called Katrinas hidden race war. i read it and as i read it, i realized that it was really good article and it spooke alot of truth that most people like to deny. The article was about a black male who was walking through the heat of katrina and gets shot by three white males and they kept shooting and they said " get them get them niggers". He got shot in the neck and his two cousin who were trying to help him got shot to, but luckliy they survived but the guy who got shot in the neck lost his vision. Algiers Point was the only town in New Orleans that survived the flood but was a largly white, and the white people in the Algiers point. knew that all the people would come run to the town to get away from the flood so they got all the togther mainly white males and got there shot guns and even a uzi out potrolled the town because they didnt want anybody to come over to their town ( potrolling for african americans)and if they did they shot at them. They are still investigating and still have no proscuters. I find that very odd.
You would think that racism would be over by know cause it is 2009, but it is not their are people out there who are sick enough to kill another human,hate and torture. I find that really crazy. Before i read this i had a thought that racsim was slowly getten solved and ppl were growing up an realizing that we are all humans no matter what color we are or where we come from. I learned that there is still some people out there that just dont get it at all and we just have to live with it i guess we cant do nothing about it, its not our jobs to change the world even though if i could i would make those people out there understand that we ALL ARE THE SAME no matter what our skin color is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Over all it was a good article and i liked reading it even though it was sad.
