My only question is where the hell is the NOPD during all this?

1. NOPD is and has long been the most corrupt, underfunded and poorly managed PD of any major city in the U.S.

2. NOPD lost a lot of officers during Katrina (some abandoned, some were fired or suspended for various causes), and I doubt they have been able to replenish.

3. NO doesn't look like its "out of control", it looks like there was a big multiple-homicide that Nagin and others are using as an excuse to get more forces and more attention to their plight. Which, honestly, I don't blame them for (in this case).

4. NO was previously one of the highest crime cities anyway, so this sort of thing should not be a huge shock to anyone.

With a force only capable of handling a city 1/4 size of NO

NO is about 1/4 of its former size now...

Your right I should have said that the police force is only capable of handing a 1/4 of what it needs to.
