WTF? Is anyone else hearing this story from John Gibson about St Bernard's parish?
are you hearing this report from John Gibson - 50-100 firefighters and their familes being held down i the bell south building by snipers from NO, possibly from the prison. two sheriffs deputies shot.
Yeah, but then they asked for a roll of toilet paper and he gave them two. Now he's rightfully irritated that they expected him to wipe their butts too.
I'll have to tell that one to my USMC Lance Corporal son and his wife. My grandson will be delighted. Now they can trade in that 1991 car he drives and afford more diapers.
Fox reporting over 100 fire fighers and their families are waiting for help. Snipers are shooting at their buildingeverytime they attempt to leave. Reported that several police may be shot and killed.
Un-frickin'- believable!
Good point. And, with George Bush at the helm, it will be.
I am listening now.
How will Jesse Jackson and the Black Caucus spin this?
Bbbbut Jessie Jackson said no one is shooting at anyone, it's all a myth! /sarcasm
Thank the Lord that we FReepers can also turn to each other in times of need. This is much more than an online community. It is truly a family. and one that is closer knit and more supportive than many 'real' families today.
May I say...God Bles all FReepers and keep up the good work.
BIG RESCUE MISSION UNDERWAY
50 to 100 Firefighters and their familys are being held inside a building in St. Bernard's Parrish - Men on the outside are shooting at them if they try to leave the building - one deputy sheriff has already been killed
Only Gibson so far. But I believe it.
Time to put the USMC snipers to work.
Just heard it....get the troops in there..
juck fackson.......
Good God - I have stayed away from the TV to decompress a bit just in time to hear this.
What the hell is wrong with people? Kill them, mow them down, eradicate them and hang their bodies in the town square.
Sorry, can't watch...I've not got enough alcohol or Maalox in the house ;-)
If you put them on an upper floor, the underpinnings may have to be specially reinforced . . . plus there's the problem of getting the monsters upstairs (especially if they exceed the freight elevator's rating).
But that's a case of penny wise, pound foolish. About two thirds of the way up and near the elevator shaft is probably a good bet, but I'd defer to any civil engineers around here . . . I'm just a former insurance investigator with a little experience in structural collapses . . .
