I find it downright idiotic that Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco has called for a "shoot to kill" order against looters when many of those looters are doing it just for pure survival. Go after the gangs that are murdering and raping innocent people. Just don't shoot looters.
Summary execution of looters (or perceived to be looters and that then reminds me of the two AP articles; the black guy said to be "looting" and the white folks simply "finding" - what a fuckin' DISGRACE everybody has been. Everybody tied to big-$, that is.)
Recall her while * gets impeached. He's as discompassionate as they get.
6. This woman suggested a "Day of Prayer" earlier this week.
I'm sorry but that was a totally inadequate, boneheaded suggestion. You do not have a day of prayer in the middle of a catastrophe. She must have read too many "Left Behind" books.
7. There are two different types of looters in NO right now.

Downtown and in the most affected areas people are taking food and needed supplies. In the Uptown area there are bands of thugs who have stolen weapons roaming the city and breaking into the more affluent homes in that area. These bands of thigs are most lilely addicts and criminals who existed before the floods. They are just criminals and are hampering the relief efforts.
I know for a fact that it is true that thigs with automatic weapons are roaming through Uptown b/c I have talked to more than one person in that area who has told me it is happening.
8. What are you guys really afraid of? The might actually get food in?
Ruin your lil bitch fest? They will providing security for rescue and relief operations. If you Shoot at a rescue helecopter. YOUR DEAD! Fire on food and water distribution points. YOUR DEAD! Fire on police and other rescue personel. YOUR DEAD! The Rest of New Orleans is going to live.
Yeah go after the snipers and the thugs but don't attack the innocents who probably haven't eaten a meal in days. This crap would have never of happened had Bush and Co. acted promptly.
