Did anyone find the picture from todays Boston Globe?
It is connected to todays headline story.I've tried to find it on line but cannot. It is a Globe staff photo of 4 soldiers pointing huge guns on 2 men lying on the floor. They were "searched and told to evacuate". If they were not arrested, then they must not have committed any punishable crime. Why the "War Machines" aimed at them at close range? The picture is chilling. Amerika?

2. This is scary enough but no where as bad as the one I am looking for.
The photo is a close up of 4 soldiers holding the big AK47's or some such gun right on the two men lying on the floor. They are 3 to 4 feet away from the poor guys.

4. Todays Globe, connected to headline story but on Page A10
photo credit: Globe Staff/Dina Rudick. Accompanies very long headline story "FEMA chief relieved of aid role ". I looked on the Globe site and could not find it either. There are 3 photos in the article but only one shows on their site. The one I want is really chilling. You'd think we were at war with the citizens of NO. Its a SWAT team, for goodness sake!

5. I can't find it on line either.
It is a horrendous scene. Two African American men' on the floor, with 4 jack-booted thugs standing over them, at least two of whom are holding enormous machine guns. ...I went to the story on line, but it isn't there. Just the "lets play nice" photo from the front page. The pic you mean is on page A10 in the paper version, but the online version has obviously been cleaned up.
