The New Orleans police chief says 15-thousand people are trapped in the city's convention center. And he says some are being raped and beaten.
Chief Eddie Compass says displaced tourists are "walking in that direction and they are getting preyed upon."
Compass said he sent eight eleven-man teams into the convention center. But as soon as the first team arrived, he said, "they were beaten back within 30 feet of the entrance."
Earlier, the city's mayor issued a "desperate SOS" on behalf of the thousands who are stranded at the convention center.
He also gave the go-ahead for them to march across a bridge to a dry area of the city and look for whatever relief they could find.
My apologies. I had not intended to direct that part of the comment toward you, but just to make a general reference to postitions taken by some FReepers on earlier threads. To the extent that it was written so that it seemed to implicate you, I am sorry.
Didn't the mayor or was it the governor LET OUT THE PRISONS? I thought I heard this. Anyone hear that too?
I thought I heard that on CNN and figured I must have heard wrong!?
If this is true, talk about going from the frying pan into the fryer...
"Nothing cools a mob like hot lead."
The Rhodesian police (before it got turned into the hell-hole known as Zimbabwe) used the bayonet charge pretty effectively too. There's nothing like cold steel to discourage stupidity.
No, but you obviously are. Maybe this will help.
I just found out they are putting overflow from Houston in the San Antonio Kelly field barracks (and maybe base housing). That base was shut down recently ago by military base closings. Continental Airlines is running a shuttle between New Orleans and Kelly field direct.
A little quick to judge aren't we? What are you doing to help?
I can't imagine going thru this at all but going thru this as a Causcasion and a tourist has to be the worse hell ever.....
Just don't buy gunshow "plinking" reloads, you don't know what kind of energy you're going to get! Found out the hard way....
"No, but you obviously are. Maybe this will help."
I noticed you didn't bother challenging the first question, and instead chose to try and distract. I can understand, there's no challenging the obvious. It has to be the epitome of desperation (or the willingness to settle for anything) for any Republican to desire to see that RINO in the White House.

There's no way to know how many, if any, of the victimized tourists are white. I'm sure the Rainbow Coalition will want to keep any details hidden.
I got 1000 rounds of NATO rounds from natchezss.com 55 gr.

I guess that for such a crackhead as your self I must spell it out for you word for word: I was implying that you are a crackhead because you would write such garbage about Rudy Giuliani's leadership, or himself. This link could still be of great help to you.
Then it is just inside your head. That's what I thought.
"I was implying that you are a crackhead because you would write such garbage about Rudy Giuliani's leadership, or himself."
Giuliani's big govt liberalism, anti-gun liberalism, open borders liberalism, and free trade liberalism are well-documented, making him an IRREFUTABLE RINO! No matter how much Prozac you down at each of your meals, or how much you snort off your little mirror at the local check-pants country club, you can't run from the truth he's a RINO and unfit to be a Republican Presidential candidate.
You seem to be quite the expert in drug use. Somehow, I do not believe that that's book learning you are referring to. Give a specific example of Rudy’s ‘big govt liberalism’, with references…. I'ma sore afraid that you are just running your mouth off while under a drug induced haze, which you seem to be so knowledgeable about.
"You seem to be quite the expert in drug use."
You'd be amazed at the chemical dependency I've seen by Dems breaking down from having lost power for so long and RINOs like yourself trying to maintain their state of denial over the liberalism of the people they want to support.
More to come.
