They've got a right to a 325 pound Miranda with a shotgun pointed at them. That's a miranda right I can get behind.

About damn time.

Sorry, no real link. This was just announced on WWL TV live. It's an attempt to deal with the gangs. It's too dangerous in New Orleans to do anything else according to Dennis Woltering.

They should have done this much earlier. WWL is the best way to get breaking news.

Good start but a better one would be to resign and let someone competant manage this, cause clearly the Dems in the state are out of their league. Let Rudy take over.

The media was throwing the word around, but it wasn't official. This is an official declaration.

OK, where are Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? Is SharpTON still pal-ling around with his new best bud, Cindy Sheehan and her Press Pack Attack?

I'm counting the hours when one of those nitwits announce the current rescue efforts underway are inadequate because most of the victims are poor and black. This is a photo op too good for either of them to pass up.

So that still doesn't explain what they are going to do about looting. If you have martial law with no threat of being shot or thrown in jail what's the point?

We'll know their serious when the "Looters will be Shot" signs go up, ala San Francisco, '06.

Who saw the idiot wannabe gangsta with his pants halfway down his behind, trying to smash that window...

A real credit he is.

I just heard it too. Good thing there is a Rat leading the city. The ACLU will still go ape SH!T :-) It's about time though. What a waste of manpower...
