I know you are not. That particular video was just so disturbing. And the fact that so many seem to so slow on the uptake as to gravity of the situation.
Finally. I can get this in without having to "speculate".
Read this.
The read it again.

7:37 A.M. - (AP) The evacuation of the Superdome was suspended Thursday after shots were fired at a military helicopter, an ambulance official overseeing the operation said. No immediate injuries were
reported.
"We have suspended operations until they gain control of the Superdome," said Richard Zeuschlag, head of Acadian Ambulance, which was handling the evacuation of sick and injured people from the
Superdome.
He said that military would not fly out of the Superdome either because of the gunfire and that the National Guard told him that it was sending 100 military police officers to gain control.
"That's not enough," Zeuschlag. "We need a thousand."
If this isn't crunch time, the Battle for New Orleans, or the cassus belli for same, only two alternatives.
1. The political bosses play pattycake, hoping to keep the lid on, but the simmer turns to boil,
2. Those left in New Orleans are....left in New Orleans.
