Were you in New Orleans last year for MAX? From what I saw there was already 
plenty of racial tension to begin with. Coming from California, I was shocked 
at how tense it was. This disaster has just brought it out.

As far as videos of people taking stuff (without the debate about taking v. 
looting), my understanding is that the majority of people left in the city were 
poor folks, mostly African-American, who didn't have the means to get out 
before the storm hit, or who figured they would just ride it out.
