“Premiere” Republican Online Community on “Shooting to Kill”
These are some responses from Freepers, over at FreeRepublic.com, the “premiere” forum for Republican/Conservative grassroots supporters:
Iraq-tested soldiers in New Orleans with shoot to kill orders Agence France-Presse ^ | September 1, 2005

A detachment of 300 Arkansas National Guard troops landed in anarchic New Orleans on Thursday, with the authorization to shoot and kill “hoodlums” Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco said.
“Three hundred of the Arkansas National Guard have landed in the city of New Orleans,” said Blanco.
“These troops are fresh back from Iraq, well trained, experienced, battle tested and under my orders to restore order in the streets,” Blanco said.
“They have M-16s and they are locked and loaded.
“These troops know how to shoot and kill and they are more than willing to do so if necessary and I expect they will,” said Blanco.

I am going to be so pissed if any Guardsmen die at the hands of the Democratic base.

Sounds like Blanco just switched to the Republican party.
I think this RAT bitch knows that in the end, it will be her and Mayor Nagin who will have the blame pinned on them for the open door given to the thugs.
I hope all the RATs see what their 40 years of law and order neglect has brought to this nation.

To: inquest I hope they don’t rotate duty too much. There’s a downside to having too many soldiers get too comfortable with the idea of shooting at civilians, even if it is a necessary evil at this time.
I don’t see it. Their aim is precise, and they are a last resort.
The trash that’s left are not going to leave, so they may as well join the rest of the floaters in the water.

That’s enough… you get the idea. And, remember, this is the premiere site for the Republican grassroots movement… Shit, I can’t belive these assholes are beating our asses in the national political arena.
