You know, it's like the "looters" (you could substitute the word "insurgents" in Irag) are trying their best to keep lawful order & authority from being re-established in New Orleans.

I've heard a lot of those looters are prisoners that were released because of the flooding. I'm guessing a good percentage of those prisoners could have been Muslim. Do you think they're trying a little "terrorism" on our home turf?

I've heard that yes they were released, but they were kept on a bridge in custody..not released into the general population..

I saw a press interview with the head of the Dept. of Corrections right after the storm hit and he said that no prisoners of any kind were simply "released" into the city. I can't deny that he would have reason to cover it up, but I doubt they would... Now, there were probably enough people on probation and uncaught criminals to make problems anyway.

Oh, please. Escaped convicts and/or gangbangers and drug addicts don't need a political or religious reason to act like beasts in the midst of chaos.
