   Let me see if I understand this. After a major disaster, when there is no law enforcement anywhere to be had, and with innumerable reports of looting and worse, one is supposed to sit back and wait while the looters and other disadvantaged types arrive and do their dirty work. People own guns for a reason and you can bet that if and when my family is in a similar situation, we WILL be armed and any stranger entering my property will do so at their own peril.

   I wonder how long we have to sit here waiting for the Justice Department of Erik Holder to send someone down there to arrest the suspects who shot this man? Obviously the police in Louisiana are corrupt. They were even shooting people on the bridge trying to run from the rising water.

   We will never know how many people were murdered during Katrina.

   Rightt.....

   Because looters are gonna admit to trying to loot..

   Instead, it's .. "i's juss walking down tuh street suh.., I aint knows whats happen, sumbuddies just dun shot me suh'...

   Yeah... OK...

   It's a bunch of gun buddies together trying to survive after a major incident, they ARE the law. There isn't any racist conspiracy.

   I love how they try to paint the gun owners as racist vigilantes.

   Why not do some REAL investigative reporting? Find out what REALLY happened, instead of relying on ONE persons report.... Did you even CHECK to see if this ferry this man was supposed to go to was even there?

   I noticed all the lovely comments made were done while they were drinking beer. Then sober they deny it all.interesting how alcohol works.
