One of the more odious consequences of Governess Blanco and Mayor Nagin and their utter failures may be the near repeal of the Posse Comitatus Laws. Everybody better be up for this one: Do we want the military used as a police force with all their deadly capabilities when scumbags like Blanco and Nagin have reared their ugly heads? Do we want Strykers cruising down the streets shooting at looters with their enormous firepower because local Law Enforcement is corrupt? Wake up everyone because this will be proposed. A good overview of both the law and its deterioration over time is here.
