    LOL. There would never be enough law enforcement for this type of disaster. The Louisiana National Guard is in Iraq. They are bringing them in from other states.

    That is the funniest thing I have read all day!


    There is no point in making this political. It's not like New Orleans is a Republican stronghold. :D

    Lousianna total Guard numbers as of 8/31/05 are 11,500.

    Deployed around the world 3748.

    Deployed in Iraq 3500. 256th Infantry Brigade including about 450 members of the 1088 Engineer Batallion.

    Remaining in Lousiana about 8000 troops. Including the 225th Engineer Group(combat) with its four organic Engineer Batallions well suited for disaster relief.

    The 225th is touted by the Lousianna Guard as being the largest engineering group in the reserve.

    The infantry, tanks, bradleys, and howitsers are in Iraq the engineers and their equipment are still in Lousianna

  8. ok these guys couldnt handle a storm that they had weeks to prepare for, imagine what could happen when something that happens totally unpredicted like a huge terriost attack. If the government cant handle a small city like new orleans, what would happen if terriosts nuke la or huston or something like that. They dont even have communications up yet. I think bush wasted the billions used to prepare for a disaster.

  9. Its amazing. Id hate to see what happens when california eventually has a major quake. Its bloody disgraceful, the rescue efforts and the people.
    But sure as shootin, if those helicopters did land, they would be overwhelmed, possibly crash and the gaurds would likely be forced to shoot people.
    Guess thats why they teach people to approach drowning people with a long stick or object, because just as likely they will drag you down with them given the chance.
    Does anyone know, what percentage of people can swim in these areas?(and dont say, a lot mre now)
    How far would people in the city or the dome have to swim/wade to get to the nearest non effected area, find some decent amenites and shelter?
    Bushs flyover might have been more meaningful if hed done it in a herc, and airdropped rubber ducky boats, the smarmy prat.

  10. its probably the nation average right about 32% of people can swim. But you have alot of sick people who are getting illnesses in the water. Its full of industrial waste, chemicals, pesticides, bodies, and human waste. And its hot so Im guessing its hell on earth right now.
