Personally, in Normal Circumstances

…I think Wayne LaPierre is a complete jack-ass. But boy, oh boy, whatever it takes to shut this bullsh$t down, I’m with him.

The police superintendent’s comments were echoed by the city’s Deputy Police Chief Warren Riley, who told ABC News: “No one will be able to be armed. We are going to take all the weapons.“

Yes, that’s the second in command of New Orleans’ finest. The same finest who should be around protecting folks?

“Things are worse at night, and people say their gun is the only source of comfort they have, the one thing they can depend on to save themselves and their families,” Mr. LaPierre said, noting that a “third of the New Orleans Police Department walked off their jobs” during the Katrina emergency.

Oh yeah. That’s them. When they’re not at Wal-Mart.

    You’re far too kind to the thugs of the New Orleans Police department. The only difference between the criminals and the cops in that town is that the cops carry a badge.

    And dress better, until they strip their uniforms off to scurry away unnoticed.
