The alarmists on FR before Katrina were right. And the alarmists over the past few days have been right as well. The locals, the officials and police in NO and LA, behaved with criminal incompetence. And their caterwauling now bespeaks their fear of being found out and held to account. Too bad the MSM treats those criminal crybabies as golden throated warblers. Hopefully MSM is going down along with those they'd protect.
A little while ago, I heard that the starting cops pay in NO is $16,000. No wonder they were looting. Can you imagine even being a LEO in NO, let alone making that kind of money?
