Police are shooting Army Corps of Engineers employees?

[Tyranny_R_US]

I heard a report of this on WWL of this happening, is this related to the 8 armed "looters" shot earlier today?

1. That is what they are

saying on CBS right now. NO Police shot at Army Corp of Engineers in a case of mistaken idenity...thought they were looters. Sounds like it is the same 8"looters"

6. They need to get Blackwater security out of there!

I have no doubt in my mind these are the people running around in black masks. We don't need $1000.00 a day mercs implementing their form of law and order in NO.

12. Oh yeah, you're just so sure it was Blackwater

and how do you know that? Black masks? Are you insinuating they are black people - might as well be - Blackwater is coming, Blackwater is coming. bullshit.

13. You don't know they're NOT Blackwater!

14. Actually I do

"Deputy Police Chief W.J. Riley says the shootings took place on the Danziger Bridge"

8. Nothing like uniforms to identify someone as a "friendly"... but shoot

to kill??? For taking some frigging STUFF? I'll be damned.

2. It looks that way...

I'm not sure who to blame for the hysteria, the press or the administration.

7. Things are seriously f*cked in New Orleans.

I would not normally ever say that word, but things are just so FREAKING BAD in New Orleans that no other word fits.

CNN now reporting that NO police have killed Army Corps of Engineers guys.
