Now it is rape right in the refugee centers!

It was bound to happen. Right in the Superdome in New Orleans there are emerging reports of rape. This is where people have had a hard enough time coping with the loss of their homes and their jobs, but now they have a new concern: rape. Women are apparently being raped by the brazen denizens of New Orleans. This is occuring in an area where there are many policemen, National Guard troops and officials. You can imagine the horror taking place on the remote streets cut off by water or raging Black gangs. How many women will be raped, robbed and murdered and their bodies thrown in the waste-filled waters of New Orleans, only God knows! I believe the toll from the murder and mayhem will far outstrip the deaths caused by the storm.

This is not a disaster movie folks, this is real life, in America, right now! –dd
