Given the population demographics of New Orleans, AAs are about as over represented as blood type A. Seems the governor just wants to push things toward civil unrest. If anything of the sort happens, I hope y’all properly target the political class first.

This is very probable. Anyone with an IQ above room temp can see this is an engineered virus. China has pretty much colonized Africa.

Funny, could this be the reason Spain and Italy had much higher rate/death than the rest of Europe?

The chinese virus is spreading fastest in trashy communities who don't follow directions very well.

If you want to attach those characteristics to a single race, well, that's on you, baw.

Yes. Still having church. Still having cookouts. High numbers of obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Who would’ve thought?

I wasn’t arguing. I was just trying to give you the most accurate numbers. Yes 60% is very high and almost double the state average too

Yes so the 70% of COVID in LA being black also makes total sense (to that other person who said “well the black population isn’t even 70%”)

Yes yes yes.

But what can I thrust my insecure white guilt at during a global pandemic? Surely this virus is either racist or represents America’s oppression of the African American community.

Last I checked, it's not spread by being shot from a gun, but if it was their infection numbers would be a lot higher.

Our local news said the same thing here:

quote:

“Black people in Alabama and other places have what I call a triple whammy. Poverty is a factor. Lack of health insurance is a factor, and underlying health conditions are a factor,” said former state senator Hank Sanders of Selma.


They even had a UAB doctor come on and say the same thing. Basically, it was their societal disadvantages that cause this to effect them disproportionally.

Eating too much isnt a societal disadvantage, it's called having a low IQ.
