I think some would say the primary purpose of those weapons is to not only keep the troops safe under precarious situations, but to also protect the innocent refugees of New Orleans who remain in the city...working endlessly to rescue people....
Here's one thing I can't quite grasp...Prior to the extremely late arrival of a federal presence in NO, people were BEGGING for law and order....For help and protection....

You are the most senior member to reply to this post and I have respect for you both as a member of the community and as a poster here. (Oh and you're a moderatore but I think I knew you ((online)) before you were one so this has nothing to do with that...
Point I'd like to say is that I'm not complaining that they're carring guns but why is it a federal response.
Why aren't states equipped to deal with these things? Failure? Yes.....
I also read some reports from survivors, that when they shouted for help to police officers and military personnel in boats driving by them while they were stranded on rooftops, the authorities did nothing, most of the time they ignored the survivors shouting for help, some even told female survivors to flash their boobs for help.
FEMA also said no to the Red Cross, refused truckloads of water from Wal-Mart, refused foreign aid, sabotaged communications etc. etc. you call that helping?
