You can shoot them now, or you can shoot them later, but there will be some heavy shooting.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, United States (UPI) -- The hurricane-battered Children`s Hospital in New Orleans has come under siege by angry and desperate looters, the New Orleans Times Picayune reports.
Late Tuesday, Gov. Kathleen Blanco`s spokeswoman Denise Bottcher said the facility in the city`s north end was being targeted, and people in the hospital were in danger.
Bottcher said the director of the hospital fears for the safety of the staff and the 100 children inside the locked-down hospital. The director said police had been summoned, but due to rising floodwaters, neither they nor National Guard have been able to respond.
At least three shootings and several carjacking attempts were reported in New Orleans Tuesday.
Hurricane Katrina`s western edge hit the city Monday morning with winds of 140 mph, breaching levees and flooding the city.
angry and desparate looters????
This has to be a lib reporter!!!
Take that you capitalist running dogs. (sarc)
OMG. Dear Lord, please help the people in this hospital. Amen
This sounds like it will turn out to be very similar to Dawn of the Dead.
Since this was happening last night what happened?
They are as angry and desperate as only a junkie without his fix can be.
As opposed to the happy and satisfied looters?
It reminds me of the last few weeks of civilization in Stephen King's novel, The Stand.
BTW, are there any pictures of this happy little event? I'm curious to see what scum looks like in the Big Easy. My understanding was that they were wearing fur coats and wielding liquor bottles.
Can't be true Hospitals have no 52" flat screens or DVD
players.
put some snipers on the roof with orders to shoot to kill.
Let them loot a target for some new air jordans and jewerly instead. Keep them away from the HOSPITALS!!!
It's time to find an armed helicopter and make a statement with these looters.
We found this guy on his way to Sears," Capt. Callahan said, as his men unloaded refrigerators, freezers, microwaves and chainsaws from a trailer truck. "We're going to buy this stuff, but ... we didn't go through the checkout line."
I read this with interest because I work in a big city hospital. Yesterday, Fox reported 4 of New Orleans' hospitals running on generators. I worry for all the patients and staff in all the hospitals.
A looter coming out of a grocery store last night said, "The Lord has provided this for us." (?!!)
Incredible.
They have both, and then some.
Head shots ?
No, but they do have Dimarol, Percaset, Percadan, Codeine, Oxycontin, etc.
You can shoot them now, or you can shoot them later, but there will be some heavy shooting.
