He needs to be jailed in a secure place.

How about in the freezer at the Convention Center?

Think he might have hurt his head while getting into the cruiser?

Someone on Air America said people aren't shooting at helicopters--rather they're shooting in the air to attract attention so they might be rescued!

Oh brother. That ranks right up there with not evacuating so you can stay home and guard your stuff.

I just cant comprehend what goes into the decision of "lets shoot at rescue helicopters"

#####

An example of the neuronal functioning of someone who wanted to act out a video game or a movie. People like this really have minimal brain waves!

If this was at night, the flash of the barrel would be expected to be visible. We'll see. No doubt a lot of this activity was angry pot shots, and there wouldn't be any possible excuse this side of insanity for shooting from a place like the Superdome.

Wendell should be locked into a ball and chain, given a teacup, and told to bail.

It's possible that there are folks suffering from paranoid schizophrenia who have not been getting their meds.

Just a thought...

Nice to see the BTFE working for a living, for once.

BTFE?
I thought they were BATF...
Anyway, I still think they should be disbanded.
Any legitimate function they serve pursuing criminals belongs with the FBI.

"Mr. Bailey later spontaneously combusted in confinement, according to a BATF spokesman."

:-D )))

I don't get this...

If someone's shooting at a military helicopter that's on rescue duty, there needs to be a summary execution.

I thought that martial law was declared down there.

It wasn't just rumors. The Mayor announced it publicly. And some guys did get themselves shot.
