It’s Not About Race

There is one factor in the New Orleans disaster that isn’t getting much media play. It partially explains why the same storm didn’t result in riots, looting, and murder in Mississippi and Alabama. It’s not race, but marriage.

Over 80% of the families who did not leave New Orleans are unmarried mothers and their children. Without good and present male role models, children (boys especially) move towards their basic selfish, lazy, sinful instincts.
