If it's a hoax, it's pretty elaborate. Different voices every time somebody talks. Besides, I would bet there would be more "juicy" stuff on here if it were.
I know. I'm going to bed as well.
I'll be REAL ticked if it's a hoax. I've been listening and posting all night.
I apologize to anyone in advance if this turns out to be a hoax--which with all the different voices, codes, confusion, does NOT sound like a hoax to me.
Truth'll be known by morning.
I think those punks may just have happened to host it on their site. There are lots of web-based scanner sites out there. If we could locate one for Louisiana/NO, we'd be able to see if it's the same thing.
We KNOW it isn't taped, because they say the shooting happened at 0145 hours, and was being reported at 0215 Central.
if it was a hoax than so be it. if i was the hoaxter, i would have had the city on fire, multiple shoot outs at the dome and blah blah blah.
Yeah, I think it's just being hosted at this site.
Yeah, that was my point too. If it were my hoax, I'd have Godzilla looting Walmarts.
If it were my hoax, I'd have Godzilla looting Walmarts.
along with the christmas ape.
if a hoax, they know the streets (area) pretty well.
True enough. All I can say is something just doesn't seem right about this scanner link. But with new technologies and all; I just don't know...

I don't know enough about it myself. Gotta hit the sack, nice talking with all.
;^)
Its a hoax

Well, just because a couple of kids are involved doesn't necessarily mean it's a hoax. All's I can say is there seemed to be something odd about the whole thing. It sounds real enough.
FGS
It isn't a hoax.
Here's yet another relay of the feed - thankfully others are rebroadcasting it because a lot of hosts are maxing out.

I can tell you one thing, the people speaking are speaking with real New Orleans accents...
Soladad on CNN just mentioned solider shot at superdome. may be some truth to the scanner.
She specifically mentioned "soldier shot"?
There are widespread reports of savages shooting at helicopters.
sorry, left pc for awhile. yes, she did say soldier was shot.
Police Capt. Ernie Demmo said a National Guard military policeman was shot in the leg as the two scuffled for the MP's rifle. The man was arrested.

Yes, I saw it confirmed in an earlier CNN report too.
