The NBC affiliate broke in on a show to announce that two sheriff's deputies
were shot in Metairie - one in the arm, the other in the bullet proof vest, that
fortunately worked.
That's the NOLA I remember pre-Katrina.

Glad things are getting back to normal?
I'm surprised it's taken this long. The thugs were only chased out
by the military, are are taking their turf back over, sadly enough.
There seems to be a new kind of crime wave as well. People are getting building materials and shiny new appliances delivered to their rebuilt or being-rebuilt & still unoccupied homes, and thieves are stealing them overnight. Bring back the Guard or be ready for some vigilante justice.
You tell me it's the institution. Well, you know, you'd better free your mind instead.

From what I've heard about pre-Katrina NOLA, if we hear the cops were actually participating in a drug deal gone bad, then we will know they're REALLY back to normal. Hey slickdawg, do you think the city will be ready if threatened again this summer? How do you think the people will react?
They'll loot it again, and then try to burn it down. Then they'll realize it's tough to light a city on fire when it's soggy wet.Originally Posted by GhostOfJAS
... that's not food.
On a brighter note, Reggie Bush just shelled out a gob of money to rebuild City Park's Tad Gormley Stadium, the major HS football stadium in the city.
groovy

The people will get the hell out for a threat, no doubt.
The levee system is repaired to is "pre katrina" status, but I believe that
the entire system suffered significant structural degredation during the
event, and as a whole, will not hold for a category 2 now.
At least one Bush will be well thought of.
An Education is what you get when you Read the Instructions,
Experience is what you get if you don't...
Reggie is the "other" Bush that GHWB doesn't like talking about.
"Not gonna do it, Not gonna do it... Wouldn't be prudent for this juncture."
The hard cores messed up and are in Texas jails now...We're waiting on Blanco to ask for them back...
Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.
Blanco is dumb enough to do that.
