National Guard in midnight mass evictions / detention of Katrina survivors from NO hotels a careful reader 2006-02-11 9:56 PM
I spoke with one of these Louisiana National Guard troops (who has requested anonymity until he separates from service) on the phone two nights ago, and I've been seething ever since. The National Guard is now being empolyed to assist the extremely sketchy New Orleans Police with these hotel evictions; and some of the troops don't like it a bit. Said this distressed young man on the telephone, "This is f***ing unbelievable. We were given an operations order to herd our fellow New Orleanians onto buses like cattle or convicts in the middle of the night. They weren't even allowed to pcik up their belongings. We [the National Guard] were responsible to inventory their stuff and bag it up." There is a really big New Orleans round-up scheduled, he advised me, on Monday night, February 13th. Happy Valentine's Day. The reason, according to this source, that these operations are being conducted at night is to evade press coverage and public outrage. (text/plain + 2 comments)
