just in......police officers mistakenly shot and killed several people with the Army Corps of Engineers.
They were not looters.

If these guys were white maybe they thought some skin head types where going to deal with the looting.That's quite a stretch, don't you think?
When it comes to New Orleans cops, always bet on incompetence and corruption.

They were Army Corps of Engineers trying to work on the Levees they killed.

eight were shot, five or six killed

I really hope this doesn't all come down to the frazzled nerves and dumb actions of the New Orleans PD, by all accounts the worst, most inefficient police force in the country. Not to worry, the mayor has evacuated the NO Police Department to Los Vagas.
He is driving the bus to make sure his order is carried out.

It is terrible that the innocent victims were shot. This is becoming more sad beyond belief each and every day.

I suggest leaving it as is, other wise most of the opening comments will come off as rather, umm, misplaced.There were misplaced anyway. No justification at all for assuming the victims were "thugs". In the last ten minutes we all just found out why.
To: Cardhu
This is about to get REALLY interesting. Someone is going to have some 'splainin' to do if this is true. I'll wait until I hear it from someone other than the Ass. Press.
