John Robson on New Orleans

From the Ottawa Citizen:

"Finally, hailing the violence as a liberating response to poverty or racism is, as G. K. Chesterton said, a slander on the poor. And on blacks, a majority in pre-Katrina New Orleans, most of whom either evacuated in an orderly manner or coped in an heroic one, and neither sought nor seized an opportunity to behave badly."

Thanks for posting a reasonable voice amid the nonsense we've had to hear.
Am going to provide a link to this post on my blog- please let me know if you object.

Thanks again,
