Not long after hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans and the reconstruction efforts began, the town's mayor, Ray Nagin referred to the place as "Chocolate City" and said that it would be "a majority African American city." What was the MSM's reaction? Well, they, for lack of a better term, went apeshit. And of course all the righties denounced him as a racist, and to be frank, it was a racist thing to believe. It is racist to claim a city for a certain race and think, "Hey wouldn't it be great if this or that race were the majority here?"
The irony, of course, is that most of the people who screamed "racist" at Nagin were The Crazy People on the right who have absolutely no problem with Israel calling itself a "Jewish State." If Israel establishing a Jewish State isn't racist, why is Ray Nagin being favour of a "Chocolate City," racist?
