Katrina Racist... Against Whites?

So, a higher fraction of honkies died due to Katrina than blacks. Since liberals blame all racial discrepancies on racism, applying their logic here compels them to conclude that all the factors contributing to the Katrina catastrophe (poor city planning, poor reponse, etc.) constituted anti-honkey racism. When the disaster struck, if you wanted to increase your chances of survival, it was better to be black than white!

Are you calling God a racist?

No: I'm pointing to the logical flaw of people who look at racial disparities and automatically attribute them to external racist factors adversely affecting the group at the bottom. One of the many absurdaties of this view is that it only gets applied when comparing a non-white group to whites when white outperform the non-whites. For example, on standardized tests, where white on average get better scores. The libs point to that as evidence of racism. Yet on these same tests, Asian immigrant kids out perform the honkies; yet no cries of racism. Why?
