I'm OK, you're OK, everything is just fine.

Sorry, I should have addressed my reply to'All' and not to you.

This story about the two cops who killed themselves stinks. Is anyone going to follow up on why they did it? When did this happen? Anything else in their lives which might account for suicide? Divorce? Bankruptcy? Indictment?

[rightwinggoth]

Absolutely. Those officers were true professionals. They were siphoning gas from every vehicle on the block, holding stores up at gunpoint, telling the sick and injured crying for help to write their names and SSNs on their own arms for ease of later identification and to tie their dead loved ones to trees -- all in the interests of the common good.

Step 1 - Shoot Bad Guys
Step 2 - Take their weapons and Ammo
Step 3 - Repeat Step 1

If the Chief is looking for some of his officers, he might check the Walmarts...we saw some of the N'awlins' cops on camera ripping off a Walmart!

The cops in N'awlins must be dumber than dirt...there they were; being interviewed by one of the local TV station's newsman and recorded on camera while ripping off a Walmart. LMAO
duhhhhhhhhhhh

The cops who 1) stayed and 2) did their job are heroes.

his officers held their ground without food, water and even ammunition in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. And why was there no food, water or ammunition for the officers?

[OldFriend]

What's five hundred missing police officers among friends.

Sheesh.

We need to pray for the good people in Louisiana.

I'm sure these fine officeres will show up on payday...If they ran out of ammo how much did they have to begin with?

At a news conference earlier Monday in New Orleans, Deputy Police Superintendent Warren Riley said between 400 and 500 officers on the 1,600-member police force are unaccounted for.

You know if I was standing around telling people to dump loot and then letting them go to loot some more while they grew even more emboldened and the city descended into anarchy - I would say f'it and go home and protect my family. If the situation changed, leadership appeared with a plan to stop the madness - I would come back.

I don't blame those cops ONE bit.

"without food, water and even ammunition"

Then what did they kill themselves with?

Why didn't they loot some, I saw them on TV looting so why not bullets?

Lets face it, there are heroes in the ranks of the police in NO, but appears as if alot of them took advantage just like the street thugs.

[Flint]

Ran out of ammunition? I sure would like to know how. Were they in such intense fire fights that they shot up all their ammo? If so how many terrorists did they take out?

I simply ain't buying this one. It sounds like that I may have more ammunition in my closet then they had in the whole city. They couldn't ask for a military air drop of a few cases? Something stinks with this story.

"...his officers held their ground without food, water and even ammunition in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina."

Where the hell did the ammo go? They sure as hell weren't shooting at anyone!
