What you advocate may not be relevant, but the issue is. If drugs would be legalized, the number of addicts without stuff would be MUCH higher in case of disaster (and also without disaster!). But that flies in the face of "keeping ordinary people as safe as possible". > I don't think it's a case of test running martial law. There are crazy > people with guns around. People are in danger. If protection of people was the goal, they would have invested in civil protection, and the whole mess wouldn't have happened. OTOH, if the goal is what even the WSJ reported, they would have acted exactly the way they did. Now they can expel all poor natives at gunpoint, bulldoze the whole place and build a big Gated Community for the select few. The Israelization of NOLA, so to speak.
