Oh, yes. New Orleans was prepared alright. They even had a Plan.
The Plan was "Every man for himself". And then of course there was the "Screw the poor without resources" section of The Plan.
and the abandon the city to the criminal rampagers who will then impair rescue and set fires Plan.
The police had a plan - loot WalMart then run away.
Watch this video of the local news filming three of NO's finest casually looting WalMart. Unbelievable.
