I had heard yesterday that martial law had been declared...then, this morning I was told "never mind" it wasn't called.

I don't know who does that...the Governor, the mayor or the POTUS, but it sounds to me like it needs to be done now.

When I hear about people breaking into hospitals and terrorizing patients and staff....and snipers shooting at police while their friends loot...

I say...call in as many National Guard as is available, and have them armed and dangerous!!!!

Well they are on the way, the Mayor apparently didn't have a clue how to spread his manpower, apparently they do not have enough police, and all that water. I think they need to get police boats, like they have in Pittsburgh, that way the police could get around. I minored in Urban Planning in college and in my opinion, they did not have a very solid plan and certainly lacked in gaming out possible scenarios. Lack of imagination is my guess.
