Chiefs of NOPD and FEMA agree on something

Police Chief: 'Urban Warfare' Slowed New Orleans Rescue :

"Federal Emergency Management Agency Chief Michael Brown, under fire for his agency's slow response, echoed Chief Compass's complaint, telling CNN: 'We are working under conditions of urban warfare.'

"Though the city's crime rate is ten times the national average, U.S. news outlets downplayed the connection between New Orleans' outsized criminal element and delays in rescue efforts."

Career criminals and desperate junkies have severely compromised the recovery efforts in New Orleans, but it's easier to blame racist white officials of the federal government.
