As expected, I'm afraid... Trigger-happy, nervous officers pushed hard due to the amount of work after Katarina.. It's not against the law to own
a gun in N.O is it? Wouldn't be surprised if they were just gunned down before even getting a chance to explain WHY they were carrying guns..
Wondering how the "official" story will be...
I also posted this in the ATSNN thread...
Question:
If you were in New Orleans right now and owned a gun would you not be visibly "carrying" it?
I hope to hell these people were shooting at the cops, or else it was just shooting fish in a barrel.
What are the supposed "rules of engagement" in this situation? Shoot first or only return fire? Anybody know?
