WHITE MAN’S VIOLENCE IN NEW ORLEANS!

Just listened to Dutch radio, local time 10:40am, a Dutch photographer reported this as a witness account in Katrina aftermath in New Orleans.

The leader of the KKK was as vigilante active in the neighborhoods of the flood stricken city of New Orleans. In groups, the KKK men were driving around in their pick-ups. When they came together, the men were bragging how many niggers they managed to shoot.

The photographer, Kadir van Lohuizen, witnessed numerous dead bodies with gunshot wounds.

This is a story still developing, will not be covered in the coming issue of TIME magazine.

Can anyone corroborate this story with other reports or unsubstantiated rumors? Still need a second source, I trust BooTribers in the relief effort will respond. There was a city blogger active throughout the hectic, lawlessness days after the devastation of Katrina. Was there anything in his reporting that anyone recalls in support of this story?

Will add translation later.

In a blistering report, the investigators, from the Government Accountability Office, said the administration had disseminated “covert propaganda” in the United States, in violation of a statutory ban.

The contract with Mr. Williams and the general contours of the public relations campaign had been known for months. The report Friday provided the first definitive ruling on the legality of the activities.

Lawyers from the accountability office, an independent nonpartisan arm of Congress, found that the administration systematically analyzed news articles to see if they carried the message, “The Bush administration/the G.O.P. is committed to education.”
