Rumor has it that the police in New Orleans aren't going to actually force people like the ones in the story to leave. They probe to see if the people are good people, in good health, who can take care of themselves. Especially if they have some kind of connection to the military.
If so, they leave them alone.
At least, that's what people in New Orleans are saying.
Well the TV tells a different story. Watch what people do not what they day.
