Wow, using active duty units with heavy firepower.
And to think Nagin is taking credit for this because he "got their attention".

WEll does anybody think the MSM will ask the GOV or the Mayor IF they had plans for an evacuation if needed and knowing that a large portion of your citizens have no cars etc what was the plan to get them out .

They had a near miss last year so they had plenty of time to have a plan in place

Also what kind of command and control structure was in place for the city and or the state in order to co-ordinate efforts knowing full well that electricity would be lost

Don't hold your breath

I suspect they will NOT actually be called on to use much of their firepower. Bangers don't usually have the guts it takes to stand and slug it out with real troops. I hope they are sending in some Delta operators to clean out the Super dome. These scum think they are "bad"? Those boys will show them what real "bad" looks like. Unfortunately for them, it will be a the last lesson they will remember learning eternally.
