NEW ORLEANS - Police shot eight people carrying guns on a New Orleans bridge Sunday, killing five or six of them, a deputy chief said.

Deputy Police Chief W.J. Riley said the shootings took place on the Danziger Bridge, which connects Lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi River.

He said he had no other details.

the police and gaurd are all using automatic wesapons and 30+ rounds down range at a group does a lot of damage.

President Bush should start opening his mouth he lets people step all over him.

I feel the same way - my heart wants him out front blowing these people's stories away. But I don't want to see the Office of the President sullied by him having to extrapolate truth from the lies of the frothing left who think this hurricane is a godsend to them (kinda like al queda does). But Republican lawmakers who draws $$ from the RNC had better grow a spine and get out there in force with the truth and facts.....even if it makes Mary cry some more on national tv. Ideally I would like VP Cheney to lead the charge.

Too bad the term "thugs" has been replaced by "people".

It lacks any 'street cred'

AP screwed up. Thankfully, story wrong.

Instead, cops shot a guy or perhaps more than one guy who was shooting at Army Corps of Engineers. The shooter or shooters is/are dead.

They are now "corpses".

the Danziger Bridge, which connects Lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi River.

Idiot reporter alert!!! Bridges don't usually connect bodies of water. They normally connect land.

NOLA used to be majority white.

Now it (was) 67%

NOLA had serious race issues before all this....this is just opportunistic manifestation....bound to happen.

If I couldn't and wouldn' walk thru a black hood down there prior to the storm then why do folks expect everything to go all kumabaya now?

This has been an urban reality a long damn time. It's even become a celebrated sub-culture. I wish folks would wake up and reject that but I'm not holding my breath.

It's back to blame whitey for my behavior....it's seem patently racist to me for folks to think white's are responsible for how some blacks behave. I think responsibility lies at the feet of those acting like Clockwork Orange drooges...and them alone.

I realize that is probably not a popular opinion....even here.

"Do you know for sure the gunmen were black?"

You can't possibly be serious. If you are......pretend you aren't.
