"Louisiana officials are trying to decide what to do about a massive shopping spree by families on food stamps when a power outage lifted the caps on their spending cards."

"Springhill Police Chief Will Lynd said some customers were pushing more food than any household could store in a refrigerator and freezer.
 
"I saw people drag out eight to ten grocery carts," he said."

Racist.

Breaking down raw numbers into percentages = racist
Breaking down voting habits by welfare recipients = racist
Breaking down welfare numbers as a percentage of population = racist
