"But I'm waiting on ID's and pics of perps."

Vanity -- a firsthand report from someone in New Orleans

There's your ID.

I hope to G-d that they were bad guys, because if it were "friendly fire" the MSM is gonna run with that one.

Even so, it's going to be hard to find justification for killing SIX people. This smells bad of overreaction.

How do you figure that?

I've heard about DU for years but never went there. I wish I had stayed away.

Looks like the CNN reporterette is "feeling their pain".

Frankly, if the dead thugs were the ones shooting at the rescuers I hope they felt some pain before they departed this vale of tears. I suppose that isn't a proper Christian attitude, but I can't help the way I feel so I may as well express that feeling.

If the NOPD wasn't fired upon, this could be bad. This could be armed citizens.

The city is under a cordon. I hope the victims were criminals, and not good guys just determined to leave via a route other than the approved evacuation means.

If they were armed and threatening the police or other citizens, then they got what was comin' to them. But why do some Freepers who hate when Blacks turn everything into a "Race Issue" turn everything into a race issue?

Exactly.

The MSM needs to NOT be in New Orleans. They are obstructing.

Amazing, isn't it? Like being able to peer into the skull-workings of a pack of particularly "slow" pit bulls. On crack.

Like I said before, if the shooters were white and the "armed citizens" were black, it's up for grabs.

I seriously doubt it's good guys with guns..the good guys with guns and sitting in their businesses and homes waiting to protect them against the people out walking around with guns..these HAD to be bad guys..IMHO

Wait for more information before the Monday morning quarterbacking.

Because it's not very common for six people to ever be killed by the police in one blow. And what with the stress and fatigue as a result of Hurricane Katrina, I figure the chances of someone overreacting are high.........
