We are talking about New Orleans cops. The cop lovers may be familiar with the topic - as am I. My personal experience is that New Orleans cops turn right and wrong inside out.

I'm wondering why half the national guard didn't quit, desert, etc in the middle of the relief effort. Half the police walked away, many just stopped reporting for work - in the middle of the city's greatest need! What the hell kind of lousy organization and lack of commitment is that? And the article is written as though it's understandable and they deserve sympathy.

The city's police force quits, but the MSM is wondering why the early relief effort was flawed? And by the way, can someone tell me which part of the hurricane aftermath was so difficult the cops should quit en masse? It was the first day or two, so we're talking about people who walked out immediately.

Maybe I missed it, but I recall only one shooting of an officer. Cops were not drowning, they were not attacked by swarms of rioters, they were not being killed. I can see no reason they quit when no one else did. And anytime i saw the police chief on tv, he was exhibiting zero leadership. Like the mayor he was just yelling, "we need the feds to send buses!" What a total punk ass performance.
