"They have M-16s and they're locked and loaded," Gov. Kathleen Blanco said of 300 National Guard troops who landed in New Orleans fresh from duty in Iraq. "These troops know how to shoot and kill, and they are more than willing to do so, and I expect they will."
Somehow I do not think she'll let um do alot of shooting

I'm a LA. resident I call bullshit. The only wounded thus far is a guardsman by another guardsman.

It must be surreal coming home from Iraq, to do basicly the same duty in the USA. Thats a pretty bold statement from a Gov. I guess shes pretty fed up.

Yep, the military had no problem at all firing into a crowd of American civilians. I have now doubt that they will fire enmass if fired upon.

Blanco has been totally FUCKIN ineffective as a leader. She's only saying this shit now because people have gotten fed up to the point where they want control to be restored. The NG should have been called in days ago w/ orders to shoot to kill. Hopefully this debacle will end her career.

I smell a stench from the southeast and it's not the Super(doom)dome.
it'll be easier to vote her out knowing her voting base has been severely depleted (After the marines/NG mop up in NO)

I always knew not electing Bobby Jindal was a big mistake. Never knew it would be THIS big. Hell he's a representative now and he's done more to reassure people than the governor has.

I would wager a bet N.O. district #5 I think is what put her over the top. They keep Landrieu and Jefferon in office I know I have seen and heard the numbers. These are Blancos constituents it is no wonder she does not want looters shot it will cost the Dems votes. Maybe their is a silver lining here after all. Blanco, Landrieu, and Jeffersons constituants will not vote next time, since we all know they will not vote GOP.

I don't know much about Lousiana politics, being from WA state. But what I see on tv is a lady who has no clue what is happening in her state...deer in the headlight look.
Hopefully there are some smart people with her that can get their act together and save NO.
They need M16's on every street corner....a few pill boxes on Canal St would help to.

Even though this shoot to kill order was put out by a democratic governor the DUmmies at DU are acting like GWB ordered these guardsmen in.
They are totally oblivious or just too stupid to realize he had no part in it.

Think about this, Josie:
By the time the media and apologists get finished, the "armed rampaging killer scum" will be "poor, defenseless families scavenging for food and diapers, that were murdered by Bushco and Haliburton."
Our mainstream media will capitalize on any acts of violence by government, justified or not.

I agree that is usually what would happen, but I really think it would be different this time.

Sharp cookie, that Kathleen. She gives a stern warning to the thugs via televised address.
There's just one problem, Kathy dear: The thugs may all have TV's (brand new ones, in fact), but they ain't got no place to plug 'em in.
