45. I think that the original post

was using sarcasm to make the point that the media consistently focuses on images of darker-skinned people as "looters" and images of lighter skinned people as "victims".

I think - someone correct me if I'm wrong, by all means. But I don't think it was meant as a shot in any way at the culture, racial composition or citizens in general of Louisiana.
