Anyone see the report on the Plaquerman (sic) Parish Sheriff??

It was amazing. He put roadblocks into the county and instructed his deputies to 'shoot to kill' anyone who tries to get in. He said that garbage going on in New Orleans will not happen in his parish.

Things are calm and orderly in his parish.

Are we seeing a tipping point in all this? It seems to have calmed down, although mornings are typically bad after hearing what went on in NO overnight.

I'm amazed anyone is still alive in his parish, since Katrina's eye went right over them at near CAT 5 strength. The aerial photos look like the whole place is underwater.

A little bit of hardass goes a long way. It's almost a momentum thing. Once you start down either path, there's basically no turning back.

Plaquemine's Sheriff knows what he's doing. Wish I could say the same for the LE in NO. This is a situation where you have to be decisive, even when it comes down to "shoot to kill".
