Governor says entire city needs to be evacuated

[Dreamweaver]

Wow, I don't understand why people loot electronics and other luxuries! Where do they plan on bringing them to hock/sell? I doubt the evacuation trucks will let them bring 10 DVD players and stereo equipment with them....

I can understand looting for food and necessities when stores aren't open. St. Michael, please pray for all policemen and soliders in their rescue efforts.

[quote] "We know there is a significant number of dead bodies in the water," and other people dead in attics, Mayor Ray Nagin said. Asked how many, he said: "Minimum, hundreds. Most likely, thousands."

There will be a "total evacuation of the city. We have to."

Nagin estimated 50,000 to 100,000 people remained in New Orleans. He said 14,000 to 15,000 a day could be evacuated.

The Pentagon, meanwhile, began mounting one of the largest search-and- rescue operations in U.S. history...[/quote]

[quote name='Lounge Daddy' date='Aug 31 2005, 10:58 AM']A man just called into Glenn Beck (of the Glenn Beck Show, duh) –
this man says he got a call at 12:30am from his daughter in New Orleans… the “dad, I just wanted to tell you I love you” call
She is a police officer – and was describing pure insanity, and she REALLY doesn’t believe she will get out alive.
The area she and her fellow officers are in has jewelry stores that are being looted, and the thugs have snipers on the rooftops that are shooting anyone in the area wearing a uniform. They wanna keep law enforcement away as they loot – how nice.


The police are just trying to save lives – they can’t stop looters anyway, so this is just dumb madness. Even if they did arrest, where will they put these criminals?  All the jails are under water!

The army should be sent in and start taking the shooters out!

Shoot and kill whoever is shooting at police officers.

Arrest? How about a bullet in the head that should solve the jail problem.

It will also spare us a debate on the death penalty!

Well, I finally got hold of my cousin last night. His daughter is still up here but will be going back to Louisiana next week and be based out of Baton Rouge.

I'm just going to have to pray that that area doesn't descend into chaos as well.
