I REALLY want to see them respond to a "security" issue.


Somehow, I dont picture them being yelled at for much after volunteering what is usually a very expensive service... plus they have less red tape to begin with.


Rock n' roll boys.

It would be interesting to see the response if some thugs fire on that helicopter.

Mmmm...  I hope the quote found on DU is true and if so, WAY cool.  Not calling BS but I do think it's at least time to get the cops a LOT of leeway and issue the NG plenty of ammo ------ for zombies of course.

I hope that's true! We need law-enforcement that isn't limited by "Liberal" laws.

Quoted:
NO could easily offset the cost of sending in Blackwater by contracting out for a "Blackwater in New Orleans" TV show. While it might not be a long running show the first 45 minutes should be very exciting...



Yeah.  45 min or so. Could maybe be compressed to 30 if commercials were cut short but no way stretching it to an hour would work - not enough elapsed time between contact and end of action.

Hell with all commercials, the city should sponsor it un-cut and commercial free like the season opener of 24!
