I can't help but believe that this city will be haunted.

It had such a "colorful" history as it is and now with all these people dying in such a horrible way...

***Corpses, Guns Found in New Orleans Homes***

Two things that are Bush's fault.

We've seen exaggerations before. In the aftermath of 9/11, weeks later, people were still guessing that 25,000 were dead. It was only 11% of that number.

I wonder if the final death toll will be inflated with "estimates" of how many may never be found. I'll bet anything they won't be able to show a pathology report and a death certificate for everyone said to be killed. It will be the Census issue all over again, where estimates are deemed to be more accurate than an actual count.

I suspect that many NO gun owners will never see their guns again. They will all be tagged and piled in some 'secure' evidence warehouse, to be freely 'liberated' by anyone with a key or a coathanger. Years from now there will be no apparent record of any gun belonging to you, Mr Smith. Perhaps the records were lost in the flood.

Expect this headline to be used by the Brady Center to demonstrate that guns in a home increases your chance of dying in a hurricane.

"I will reiterate: the death toll will be far, far lower than the media is spinning it to be."

I've been saying this for many days. I said there would be about 300 in NO at worst 500 ....TOPS.

How do I know? Ive been around a dead body(cow)


The strench alone from the mythical "10,000" dead victims would be so intolerable that nobody could get into the city with a filtered mask.

In extreme heat, bodies tend to bloat and actually burst, spewing its liquidified contents.

The city stinks but that is from sewage and a witch's brew of chemicals in the water. Plus a few bodies.

But not in the numbers the chicken little politicans cry about.


Now in Miss., it may be a bit higher, when ithe rural areas are finally reached.

Miss. will be higher than NO.

True, at the beginning. But as this refugees start filing for federal aid and the list is compared to residents of the parishes flooded, they will be refuted.

Of course some, like Je$$e and Sharpton will claim otherwise.

This is just an oppurtunity for one huge gun grab. Everyone is out of town so the powers that be is also taking advantage of the situation, the same as looters. I wonder how many guns will make it to the trash heap and how many will make it into the hands of those who are taking them.

I do hope we are on the same page.

That link didn't work for me, but I'm pretty sure we are even without seeing it.

So the cops are going door to door searching houses for people, living or dead. If they find corpses in the house, they leave the corpse and mark the house as having a dead body in it. Then they search the house, and steal all of the guns.

Break in, steal the guns, leave the bodies. In what way are the cops any different from the looters?

Good questions and I don't have any answers except that without the imposition of the Insurrection Act, I don't believe there's any legal authority (and there may not be then.) I'd also ask 'em what they're smoking if they tried to take mine. Of course, I wouldn't be walking around brandishing arms at a time like this either. They wouldn't know what I have...

Louisiana = La = Law Abandoned.

Now I'm REALLY glad we don't live in NOLA anymore. Thanks for the video. My wife, children, and mother-in-law(evac'd from NOLA BEFORE the storm hit, will be with us a while) will see it tonight.

That is really disturbing. The violation of the 4th and second amendments is very disturbing to watch. Frankly I do not understand the mandatory evacuation at this point. They are in the process of draining the city. People should be returning to their homes, not being forced out.
