"Everyone brought their drugs, they brought guns, they brought knives. Soldiers were shot.

Last Sunday when all those thousands were queued up at the Superdome, it looked as though the people coming in were being thoroughly searched. I guess that wasn't the case after all.

Anyway, I remember FoxNews interviewing two tourists, one from Australia and one from England. They were very upbeat and optimistic about how things were going to go once they got inside. I remember thinking at the time that these were "babes in the woods". NO way would I have gone into that dome.

I saw the same interview and just remember the young male, 20ish, with a backpack, smiling. After reading what horrors were going on in the dome, I thought about him. I googled "Australian tourists, Katrina" and found some interesting stories. One said that he was alright. I was so happy to see that.

Excellent point - No way I would have gone in there, either.
