Time to put the USMC snipers to work.

What the hell is wrong with people? Kill them, mow them down, eradicate them and hang their bodies in the town square.

ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT

Read and ponder:

(From UK Telegraph, London):

""A young Briton trapped in New Orleans with his American girlfriend has issued an impassioned plea for help. Louisiana Superdome, where thousands are trapped Mark Graydon, 26, who is in the city's Superdome where thousands of refugees have gathered, told his father John that he feared for his life in the face of constant abuse from violent gangs. Mark borrowed a US military phone to call his father at home in Essex. "He told me he was very concerned about his life and his girlfriend'ssaid John Graydon, 56. "He said, 'Dad you have to get us out of here.' "That is the first time he has said that. He has been pretty brave until now. He is desperate. They are being abused and threatened. His girlfriend [Gretchen Heiserman] has been threatened with rape. "It's like a scene from Mad Max in there." Mr Graydon senior added that there were reports of bodies inside. Speaking to the Evening Standard, he said: "People are dying because of the lack of water, the intense heat and the lack of aid. "It's 100 degrees inside and he has not had any water since Wednesday night and no food for three days." Britons trapped in the New Orleans Superdome could be out within the next 24 hours. Marisa Haigh, a student from Guildford also trapped inside the Superdome, told her parents that US forces plan to bus them out of the city. Mrs Haigh, Marisa's stepmother, said Marisa had reported similar stories of mobs and violence.
