Prediction: The appeasement, isolationist, left will attempt to justify this shooting.

These people aren't looters, they are now officially domestic terrorists. Shoot to kill.

Since the media insists on calling the hurricane victims refugees lets start calling the looters "insurgents". Both words - at least in the past - have been used in the context of war.

The message needs to go out that they need to drop the weapons or they will be shot on sight.

I expect Windbag Kennedy will call it a quagmire soon.

You have got to be kidding! Good Lord this is getting awful. They need to start shooting back. Kill one thug and the message gets to thousands.

If these people are caught, they should be put out in the middle of the water and left to fend for themselves.

Either that or they'll be arguing again for gun control.

They're just shooting at the choppers so they can feed their children. [/sarc]

There are reports that there is a fire in the SuperDome. SUpposedly on police scanners. Trying to confirm.

Now WILL someone give the order to shoot all looters?

This is EXACTLY why they should have dealt with the looting the moment it broke out. Now that they've had time to hoard and arm, they are not going to go away quietly. Now it's time to put these SWAMP RATS down. It's a shame that there's no one decent left in the Big Easy to take care of these jerks.

Urban warfare. House to house, rubble to rubble searches. Armed insurgents taking over N.O.

Perhaps people will have a bit more respect for Rumsfeld and the job he's trying to do.

Pacify a country at war while we here at home cannot protect the victims of a natural disaster from the lowest forms of humanity.

Waiting to hear our blasted media find a way to blame this, too, on President Bush.
