They should have shot the old woman.  I hope she never gets her gun back.  The real question is, why aren't they doing this everywhere, especially DC, where handguns are illegal?

Wow, those cops are disgusting thugs. Giving those marks to a frail old woman?

Uh, you like the idea of heavily armed cops barging in to homes without warrants to seize things? Besides, this was just banned by 86 votes in the Senate including a majority of Democrats.

of course not.  But for Bono to post this again and give it a title like the "Untold Story"...give me a ing break.  This was HEAVILY talked about in the news.  This isn't some secret story that Bono is exposing.  It's common knowledge.

That's why the policy for "mandatory" evacuations should be - either you get out when we say you get out, or we won't come and rescue you if you call 911.  People should just get out!

I think a better solution would be to simply get the government out of disaster relief.

Umm you do realize the reason why most of the people (especially in areas like the lower 9th ward) who didn't evacuate were those who didn't have the resources and/or ability to do so.

I realize that some did not have the resources, but that many more couldn't be moved due to disability or decided they wanted to stay.

Ray Naggin had hundreds of buses that he refused to use because he was too worried about figuring out which hotel room at which hotel to put everybody instead of just loading up the buses and getting everybody out of htere.

So they should suffer for Nagin's incompetence?
