In retrospect this is no surprise. This is the first state I am aware of to ever let an emergency, that was foreknown, get to the point that such a request was deemed necessary. If LA wants it, then I'm fine with that; I don't!!

Just one more nibble by the Feds to take greater control of your life; NO THANK YOU! :mad:

I may have missed it here, but IMNSHO, there's a tremendous difference in "letting someone die", and "making someone die"! By "making", you are playing God by your deciding "the right time" By "letting" you are just trying to make comfortable, but letting God decide the time.

Anybody remember the libs calling a "slippery slope" just a bunch of hot air?

Dangerous precedents are being set with this, just like the 9-11 payments to survivors I've no doubt that down the road these decisions will come back to haunt us! The gov't teat is getting more & more encompasing.

Been thinking that I needed new specs!! :D

Roosevelt almost destroyed this country through price controls prior to WWII. Another ten years and the Japanese could have just marched right over us with no problem. Admiral Yamamoto (I believe it was) said after Pearl that "we have awakened a sleeping giant." Had he waited that ten or so...

And one of the key factors that is contributing to the demise of this once great & proud nation.

True, but this is also true! Can't help but think from BOTH the disaster AND spiritual perspectives; "There but for the grace of God, go I!"

I'm afraid that if I were one of the guardsmen on this assignment, and my superiors did not see fit to allow me arms AND ammunition, I'd have to be court-marshalled for failure to obey a direct order! As to "rules of engagement", they ought to be "shoot to kill" any looter if ONE (1) warning...

The stupidity of the Gaza pullout is the same rationale that the Brady Bunch uses when claiming that the removal of guns from private citizens will stop crime! Ain't worked yet, and never will!!!! For some inexplicable reason, some folks think that criminals & terrorists feel bound by their...

Perhaps, but not before the MSM & liberals had praised his insight, and began defending his "free speech" rights! :rolleyes: (Especially if his target had been Pres. Bush!!)
