It's a quagmire, a quagmire I tell you. Nagin will never get his government functioning as long as we are in there to prop him up. Pull out now!

I think the murders will stop if we just throw a few more billion into NO.

'When you add crack cocaine and the AK-47, you have New Orleans today," says James Bernazzani of the FBI.'

And I say BS, g-man. Exactly how many of these murders has been done with an AK-47, or, for that matter, ANY so-called "assault weapon"? Cards on the table, or fold.

Sounds like just another gun-grabbing big-government shill to me.

Don't dare send more police that will only make the murderers even madder and will cause more killings.

Good point and I bet this g-man was all for confiscating guns from homeowners right after Katrina.

More police will only create more criminals and murderers.

We also need to find out what we have done to make them criminals.

It's our fault, you know.

Most of the murders have been drug-related.

If we stop enforcing the black market monopoly this violence would decrease significantly. I don't see Camel and Marlboro reps shooting it out in the 7-Eleven parking lot, nor do I see the Budwieser and Heineken reps doing drive by's in thier beer trucks. Why is that?

Big Easy Residents Protest Killings

naturally there's this beaut blaming Dubya,

"Protest signs targeted Nagin, Gov. Kathleen Blanco and President Bush, accusing them of failing act on the city's crime problem.

Some faulted Bush for sending more troops to secure Iraq while New Orleans - where the police force is already being augmented by the Louisiana National Guard - needs help.

"I want more troops here," said Eddie Ecker, 38, a musician walking with a snare drum strapped to his chest.

These 'people' are beyond STOO-PID and have zero idea of how our gubmint works, i.e.; Federalism, the limitations on the president and the Federal Gubmint, or say the 10th Amendment.

These mopes seem to want a 'Police State', or a 'Benevolent Dictator'. Uh-huh, sure. Until the troops actually start arresting people that is.

What Nwalins needs is conservative law and order...and 'chocolate city' boy needs to be put out to pasture....\

........barring that I think the next time the hurricanes blow and fill up the spaces between the levies, we let it stay that way......

In New Orleans today, there was a rare sight: A predominately white crowd in the predominately black city, marching in what organizers called a "war protest."

White people protesting black crime? Why that's outrageous!

/sarc off

Just like we can't enforce democracy on Iraq, we cannot force law and order on Nwalens.

At least Nwalens has the government they wanted. /sarc

yes indeed...we need to evaluate why they hate us so much. We need multi-lateral talks...the police need to cut and run and let these poor innocents run their own city.
