Baton Rouge truthful information

[drthais]

I am starting a new thread this morning
about the security problems in and around Baton Rouge
I can tell you this:

yes, the govt buildings WERE shut down yesterday
and it was not precautionary
there were disturbances downtown - concrete ones
I have a friend with Wildlife and Fisheries
the same one that had been in N.O. for two days doing search and rescue
and spent all of yesterday in a govt bldg in BR
she came over last night to shower and spent hours
filling us in

among other things she says this:
anything you hear on the news
you had better take it with a grain of salt
unless you are physically there, or talk to someone who is,
you are likely being spun or outright lied to

with that in mind, and there is too much to post
I will relay what I personaly witnessed yesterday
and this is AFTER I originally posted:
the WalMart in Zachary (just north of Baton ROuge)
had 15 police cars in the parking lot
becasue SEVERAL people had pulled guns on customers in the lot
and commandeered their stuff
the city of BR and the Twon of Zachary
both issued statements that citizens should get off the street
because there were too many incidents of 'trouble'
and they are trying to sort it out
every business in Zachary had the doors locked
you had to be let in
the WinnDixie was PACKED
people from hundre3ds of miles away in Mississippi
were looking for food
and I talked to several myself
gas is almost completely unavailable

more later, but that for now

3. Wrong forum.

This should be in GD, but thanks for your eyewitness accounts. Many here are in denial that people have become violent and it is spreading.
