Hostage Situation in New Orleans
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just a heads up, armed looters have taken over one of the medical centers in New Orleans where the injured people were being sent. They are holding the entire staff of the hospital hostage and firing at the national guard. An FBI SWAT team has just been flown in (from Baton Rouge I believe) and they are just now getting situated. I'm not sure of any online scanners that are up monitoring the state trs. That is where alot of traffic is going on at.
LSP Troop B is requesting immediate backup. Troopers, riot squad, and national guard. He said the crowd is triple the size it was earlier and they are about to be overrun.
The location is 610 and eleshafield(spelling?).
Should I make another thread that has events going on down there? Lots of stuff has gone on and half of it never makes it on the news or anything.

Order needs to be reestablished, by steel if necessary.
Did you mean "true" depravity or "drug" depravity? ;) Both would no doubt apply here.
I know you were referencing a terrorist cell. I don't think it is. I think it's people with no conscience. This is the impossible and it is happening.
Has this been confirmed? seems like a big story.
I think Walker, Texas Ranger is involved in Marshal law.
Maybe I'm wrong. 8-)
While the police and guard deal with this armed takeover innocent people will die on the freeway bridge or roof because no one can help them.
They are most likely looking for drugs.
Hopefully this will spark some long overdue political reaction to the welfare-driven urban hellholes which have been growing and degenerating steadily for the past 40 years.
Liberals can't govern. If they had shot the first looters, maybe this wouldn't have happened. It sounds to me like quite a few people in New Orleans need to be gunned down.
Groups without their usual addictive substances will do anything for hits....sugar, alcohol, drugs, nicotine, caffeine, etc.
The people in Houston may have second thoughts about bringing these people into their town.
This experience tells you everything you need to know about humanity. Hopefully this will encourage the rest of the country to be a little more prepared for the reality of epic region-wide catastrophe.
A few deaths visited upon these hooligans right now will save a lot more deaths a short ways down the road.
The mayor is doing every thing he can to stifle all these stories about looters, shootings and armed thugs causing chaos.
THe FOX News reporters should spend more time on police band radio and less time trying to do their reports. The action is on the police band.
Rioting could even spread if given lots of MSM coverage.
illegal alien gangs...aka sleeper cells?
Of course not. I am an armed citizen and I would first threaten and then use deadly force if required.I would do so without passion or prejudice.
And I still wouldn't be angry. I might be pumped up on adrenalin and excited as hell...but not angry.
By the way...what makes me angry and mad as hell is that looters have not been shot on site(sight). Now that pisses me off.
I think they have already cleaned those out (the ones they could get to).
I don't know what kind of drugs are in a CVS or a hospital (or, really, all that much about narcotics) but I was just thinking there's probably more powerful narcotics at a hospital than at a pharmacy.

What you are witnessing is a band of escaped prisoners.
