I'll do you one better - if the alleged Dr. Richard L. Johnston is authorized by the DEA to write RXs for controlled meds, then he's in my database at work. I'll use this post as a bump to remind me to check when I go in.

[Nathan Zachary]

LoL! thieves are always terrible liars.

[NEPA]

I almost couldn't believe my ears when DeFillo was trying to explain the breaking down of doors and removing items from locked homes of evacuees as gathering evidence.

Sure, I believe him.

[mewzilla]

And LA's AG is doing exactly what about this?

[marty60]

Not if you are a Dumocrat.

[OldFriend]

Perhaps those parents from around the country who enrolled their children in Tulane University will wake up and smell the beignets and coffee and seek another college.

They can get the same drunken atmosphere at Colorado University with less danger from the police.

That email does not ring true to me. I don't think volunteers can just drift from job to job on a whim. He claims he decided to hand out water and after a while decided to serve hot meals and then decided to help move air beds. I'm sure the operation is set up in a more oraganized manner than having the volunteers aimlessly wander around dabbling in this and that.

[wardaddy]

bet he is pissed...just google that phone number

it's on a lot of sites

[OKIEDOC]

Well senor wardaddy, Mr. Dan Rather would say the intent was close to being correct. HA!

I did notice that in Houston many women were carrying blankets and supplies and the male evacuees were just sitting around complaining.

The way both the Superdome and the Convention Center in New Orleans were trashed tell me that these people have no respect for order and especially not for themselves.

[wardaddy]

one could make that case

[WasDougsLamb]

Good question. Let's ask Ray.
I know he will tell the truth.( heavy sarcasm )

[dixiechick2000]

I received this email, too.
Only, the name of the doc was redacted because he was, supposedly, in my home church in Meridian. ;o)

That being said, I believe it's not far off the mark.
One of the churches that opened a shelter in Meridian closed earlier than expected.
All of the bathrooms have to be redone.
The people who stayed there totally trashed them.
Most of them were from NOLA.

[Ken H]

Looks like that email has found its way to a lot of message boards.

BTW, I was kidding about calling the number.

[UCANSEE2]

Is the Tulane Hospital the one that reported armed thugs took hostages and raped a nurse? Armed hostages with uniforms and guns, and Badges of NOPD?

[uncitizen]

Cops stealing generators from hospitals. Oh this is rich.

[Sam Hill]

Gee, I wonder if that is the same generator that Andrea Gardland delivered to Mother Sheehan's hero, Malik Rahim?

[Ditto]

This letter has already be debunked as a fabrication.

[bourbon]

FYI: A Story about the email from the Jackson, MS Doctor.

This story is an object lesson in how PC madness could affect ANYBODY. This guy forwarded along one email and now he'll be considered a racist for the rest of his life by people all over the world.

[WKB]

I'm SOOO confused
I don't what to believe any more

[Cautor]

At least the NO officers who didn't exist couldn't be accused of looting. That's something at least.
