Yes I heard that too. I'm not defening Blanco or the mayor but would like to point out for those that don't know that the National Guard wouldn't be there to control the looting if Blanco hadn't already made a formal request for their presence.

Interesting. I heard her say, to a reporter when asked about this, that the order was not to shoot looters; only to shoot those who directly threaten the safety of others.
