They also approached law-abiding people traveling in boats and robbed them of their self-defense guns.

Again for no reason.

I would absolutely count on LEOs doing that again in the future —the bureaucratic need to CONTROL is strong, and in a disaster recently that impulse appears to jump up 2 or 3 pegs.

So true. Not to mention the videos of the police going house to house in an affluent neighborhood taking all of their guns.

Let's look at this list:

There were NOT sharks swimming down Canal St. Okay...

There were bodies floating in the streets and abandoned on the roadways. Believable...

There were people taking pot shots with rifles at rescue helicopters and patrolling law enforcement. Heard enough reports to call it true...

There were NOT hundreds of people being killed and raped in the Superdome, convention center, or elsewhere, including infants and elderly alleged victims. Never heard a real casualty list...

There were people setting fire to malls and then shooting at the responding firemen. Believable...

There were people shooting at the electrical lineman on the poles as they attempted to restore power. Believable...

There were NOT Blackwater mercenaries patrolling the streets. They were there, but they were primarily at static posts guarding private business and governmental shelters and camps. They were security guards. CROCK! There was video and still footage that belies this...

There was looting of all kinds, by all kinds of people to include the police in very limited instances. Cops looted more often than Boudreaux here wants us to believe...

There were NOT people eating each other. Believable...

There was SEVERE ineptness and failure on the part of all levels of government as it relates to the response. A winner every time...

Officer Friendly here is biased, trying to CYA for his boyfriends on The Thin Blue Line. Some of the commenters called him on it, and he got naturally defensive.

Bottom Line: all this grand talk of "Oathkeepers, Oathkeepers" is a bunch of hooey. They WILL go rogue, they WILL fire on citizens, and they WILL obey orders from the White Hut.
