These thugs are the maggots who that whineyass "rapper" was whining about the other night on the Red Cross' "Relief Telethon/Bash Bush Fest.

The media shouldn't be telegraphing our stormtroopers intent to shoot to kill, that way the thugs won't have time to discard their weapons and suddenly become hapless refugees instead of targets.

FNC saying it was NO PD that took care of the vermin.
....

Wonder if those were ones from the prison(escapees ?), Ones who shot at authorities earlier in the week and set fires?

Unfortunately, it would appear that at least two got away. But fewer vermin is good news anyway.

"...the cops wouldn't open up unless they were fired on first..."

You're forgetting, this is New Orleans. They might have been shot for stealing DVDs or a new plasma tv from one of the cops.
