MRC-TV brings us thus tale of malfeasance and idiocy from the Mayor of New Orleans, who claims flying coach is just not safe for a Black woman.
It sure seems as if some politicians don’t have a sense of propriety – or even of absurdity.
Take the newest case, of New Orleans Mayor (D) LaToya Cantrell. As Joseph Michalitsianos reports for the Daily Mail:
“LaToya Cantrell, the controversial Democratic mayor of New Orleans, repaid the city nearly $29,000 she wrongfully used in city cash for first class flights after justifying it by saying economy class is unsafe for black women.”
Really? I was unaware of what must be a rash of attacks on Black women on airplanes. Well, in coach anyway. Sounds like mayor is just a liar making up incredibly insane excuses for her lack of integrity.
This new report comes months after Cantrell had at first refused to cough up the cash, fueling public outrage and more than a little mockery for claiming she had to plunk down tens of thousands in tax dollars for first-class tickers because flying as a black woman was a security risk.
So, the mayor really went with this? Sounds like her Race Cards are maxed out! Because no one is buying this BS!
Adds Michalitsianos, the Mayor said:
“’As the mother of a young child whom I live for, I am going to protect myself by any reasonable means in order to ensure I am there to see her grow into the strong woman I am raising her to be. Anyone who wants to question how I protect myself just doesn’t understand the world black women walk in.’
Hmmm, believable? Survey says…..
Wait, what was that?
