Police Chief of Gretna on MSBNC right now blowing it.

[MSgt213]

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. what's he doing?

Denying the fact that his cops kept people from crossing the bridge?

[MSgt213]

3. Nope he is admitting they did it. And he said it wasn't a mistake to do

it. Because of some bogus bullshit about a boat ramming another boat.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

6. How does a boat ramming another boat

affect people crossing a bridge on foot?

[MSgt213]

9. He claims the boat spilled fuel or some shit and threaten to break

the leeve on their side which might have let water into Gretna which never flooded. It was bullshit in my opinion because for one thing the leeve didn't break on the Gretna side and that it from what he was describing it seems like it would have been easy to determine that it was not going to flood on the Gretna side.

2. spill.....give us more, please?

[DesEtoiles]

5. I called his office and the person I spoke to also denied it

[slor]

4. How so? n/t

[LandOLincoln]

He admits that he prevented people from crossing into Gretna.

Says it was for their own good--that they were better off on high ground because Jeff Parish was flooded too.

Denying that he took their food and water. Says he'd like to talk to them about that; says it's likely a case of mistaken identity.

On edit: likely, not like

[medeak]

7. was the right decision he says...blah blah

[Garbo 2004]

8. I missed whether they addressed the allegation that people in cars were

allowed to pass while they stopped those on foot. And why on earth confisgate their food and water?

[Stinky The Clown]

10. He looked totally evil and at the end was totally cooked

That guy did himself no good whatsoever .... unless scoring points with the white hood crowd counts .......

..... fucking stoopit racist.

[SharonRB]

11. Even in hindsight he thought it was the right decision

What a moran!

[aquart]

12. Reporter never asked him if he was bothered

that the decision sent people to their deaths, did he?

I so hope he hangs.
