FEMA Looting

We're from the government. We're here to help.

Sa-a-ay...nice gun you've got there...

Mexican Military Crosses Border

I guess we're supposed to be grateful, but do we really need foreign troops on US soil?

I'd like to see some questions answered:

• Are they armed?
• Do they have authority over Americans who don't want their help?
• Why have we placed ourselves in a position where we need their manpower?
• Why is it that an American citizen trying to bring a truck of relief supplies in will reportedly get turned away at gunpoint, but a Mexican soldier doing the same is hailed as a liberator?

Maybe they can help with the forced evacuations and weapons confiscations.

"Flood Survivors Expelled By Force"

"Police backed by troops have begun to use force to remove people from their homes in the city of New Orleans...Many are now going voluntarily - but others are being handcuffed and taken to evacuation centres, officials say."

I like the lapdog media's definition of going "voluntarily."

Let me get this straight--if you have prepared and stockpiled and made provisions for your own survival and defense, the government would rather disarm you and put you in an evacuation center.

Here's what reportedly happened when they did that last week, at the Superdome:

"We had three murders last night. We had a total of six rapes last night. We had the day before, I think, there were three or four murders. There were half-a-dozen rapes that night. We had one suicide last night. We had one military policeman shot."

Well, the school buses are flooded out--maybe the volunteer refugees could be transported in cattle cars.

Go Greyhound

And leave the driving to us.

Or not.

These are the incompetent kleptocrats who want to disarm us because we can't be trusted.
