You are very naive or you have decided to ignore reality.

Okay, I get it. The MSM is in this case, and only this case, absolutely, 100% accurate? If the majority in the Superdome were predators, the murders and rapes would have been in the thousands and almost no one would have walked out of the place alive but young men.

I bought the media sensationalism as well, but when I saw the thousands of exhausted women and children and men and old people coming out of the Superdome to be evacuated I saw very few young men. My theory is that most of the bad apples didn't enter the Superdome to begin with so they could be free to roam the City because *that* is where the loot was.

That is not to say that there were no predators in the Superdome. Just not a majority (as claimed in this thread by others).

And, hopefully, by the time the "occupation" is gone so will most of the criminal class of New Orleans be, picked off one by one if necessary, while they engage in (or attempt to engage in) their nefarious deeds.

Well, we can go with your logic, or we go with someone who was there, "That was the worst place in the universe. Ninety-eight per cent of the people around the world are good. In that place, 98 per cent of the people were bad."

There were lots of other first person reports along the same lines, including one by a male doctor who was from New Orleans who said he stopped going to the Dome because he feared for his life. This doctor, who was giving medical aid to the folks in the dome, was still threatened and felt his life was in danger. He felt his life was at risk, even though there were guardsmen guarding his medical station, because there was so much lawless behavior that his guards would have to leave his area to go put down the crap.

I believe that it was 98% bad people and maybe only 2% who were actively murdering or raping, but there were many many more who had murdered or raped in the past and even more than that who would murder or rape if given the slightest provocation or opportunity.
