A story tonight claimed the wealthy in NO hired
their own security guards. Was that done locally, or is that where Blackwater, ther mercenaries, came into play?

3. No, the locals with mansions have hired the
high dollar security teams, after they returned from their safety from the hurricane.

4. They should be disarmed.
I read an article where the police said citizens were not allowed to have weapons, but they would not disarm private security. That was 2 or 3 days ago.
