Washington Post Blames Gangland Shooting on Second Amendment
Gun control advocates hijack incident in America’s crime capital to demonize law-abiding gun owners

May 13, 2013Despite the fact that the FBI described the shooting at a New Orleans Mother’s Day parade as “a flare-up of street violence” and not a targeted attack, the Washington Post cited the incident as another reason to push through draconian gun control measures.
19 people were injured yesterday as the parade passed through the 7th Ward neighborhood near the French Quarter in New Orleans. Suspects were witnessed running from the scene after they fired the shots but no one has been apprehended.
In addition to the FBI describing the incident as “a flare-up of street violence,” CNN reported that, “One of the suspects was described as an African-American male, approximately 18 to 22 years old, wearing a white T-shirt and blue jean shorts.”
New Orleans is plagued by gang violence and has been referred to as “the deadliest city in America”. In 2010, the city’s homicide rate was 10 times the national average.
Shootings during parades in poorer areas of New Orleans such as the one embroiled in the incident yesterday have become commonplace. Earlier this year, four people were shot after an argument during the last weekend of partying before Mardi Gras.
Despite the fact that the Mother’s Day parade shooting was almost certainly gang-related and probably carried out by drug dealers, in addition to taking place in one of America’s crime capitals, the Washington Post cited the incident as another reason for increasing gun control measures against law-abiding Americans across the country.
In a diatribe calling for increased background checks, opinion writer E.J. Dionne Jr. remarked, “As of May 8, according to Slate magazine, there had been at least 3,947 gun deaths since Newtown. Sunday saw yet another mass shooting, at a Mother’s Day parade in New Orleans.”
Perennial gun control advocate Piers Morgan, who proudly displays a picture of himself with gun criminal Snoop Dogg, also eagerly tweeted news about the shootings as soon as it broke.
Numerous people also took to Twitter to demand Americans be disarmed and only criminals such as the ones most likely involved in yesterday’s shooting be able to have access to guns.
“Praying for new orleans until the next shooting won’t really help anything. We need gun control. Now,” remarked one user.
Enough is enough: 19 New Orleans shooting victims included 2 kids – #GunControl #Now,” added another.
Quite how making it harder for Billy Bob in North Dakota to purchase a rifle at a gun show will prevent criminal gangs in New Orleans from obtaining firearms is not explained by the Washington Post, Piers Morgan, or any other of the gun control advocates who have once again hijacked an unrelated incident to hype their political agenda.

Infowars: Door-to-door Search in New Orleans After Shooting
Infowars.com
May 12, 2013Police are conducting a door-to-door search following a shoot-out during a Mother’s Day parade in New Orleans today.
According to WWLTV in New Orleans, 12 people were shot and EMS took nine people to University Hospital. Three victims are in critical condition.
Three suspects were involved and seen fleeing from the scene.
No word if the door-to-door search is comparable to the one last month in Watertown after the Boston bombing.
Infowars.com will report on this story when more information is available.
New Orleans Police Chief Says Curfew Enforcement Isn’t Racially Biased
New Orleans Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas says his city’s curfew policies are put in place because children “are less likely to get hurt or hurt someone else” if they are at home during the nighttime. But youth advocates are arguing curfew enforcement disproportionately targets poor, African-American youth.
Serpas denies his officers engage in profiling youths when they enforce curfew laws but data analyzed by The Times-Picayune found that in 2011, 93 percent of youths detained at the city’s curfew center were black.
A 2000 study of New Orleans’ curfew law concluded that it did not deter crime. The Times-Picayune summarizes the report:
[The study called] “Do Juvenile Curfew Laws Work? A Time-Series Analysis of the New Orleans Law” found that the city’s ordinance was ineffective because it didn’t cover older adolescents and young adults, who often perpetrate crime; and it excluded what are called the “afterschool hours,” when minors are most likely to commit offenses.
Government to Enforce No Fly Zone Over Super Bowl
Pilots warned they could be shot down by missiles

January 29, 2013In another illustration of how law enforcement in America is becoming increasingly militarized, the government plans to enforce a no fly zone over the Mercedes-Benz Superdome for this Sunday’s Super Bowl.
Pilots have even been warned that if they enter the restricted area over New Orleans their aircraft could be targeted by missiles.
“The United States Government may use deadly force against the airborne aircraft, if it is determined that the aircraft poses an imminent security threat,” states the FAA in an advisory.
The “notice to airmen” also details how no aircraft will be allowed within a 10 mile radius of the stadium from the ground to 18,000 feet up in the hours before and after the game.
Only military, air ambulance, law enforcement and scheduled commercial airlines flights will be allowed in the airspace during this time.
The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) will also hold an air defense exercise today over New Orleans to drill for potential incursions by unauthorized aircraft during the big game.
“The Falcon Virgo exercise is a series of training flights in coordination with the FAA, FBI, Customs and Border Protection, Civil Air Patrol, the 601st Air and Space Operations Center, and the Continental U.S. NORAD Region’s Western Air Defense Sector. These agencies are part of America’s team for defense of the air space around the nation, including events like the Super Bowl,” states a NORAD press release.
The Super Bowl has been designated a National Special Security Event (NSSE) since 2002, meaning it is seen as a likely target for terrorists. The designation allows the Secret Service to take over security for the event, with the FBI in charge of intelligence.
Before last year’s Super Bowl, the TSA trained thousands of fast food sellers and other vendors to spot terrorists under the “First Observer” program, an issue that attracted ridicule after the story was picked up by the Drudge Report and went viral as a result.
There is little indication that the TSA will have any involvement in this year’s Super Bowl. No information about the event appears on the federal agency’s website and there have been no news reports about TSA agents being involved in security at sites in and around the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
In a related story, GSN reports that, “A team of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies began maritime safety and security operations on the lower Mississippi River,” before Sunday’s game.

A New Orleans police sergeant kept quiet about a post-Katrina shooting. The officer, who is married to a police lieutenant, was promoted shortly after the shooting to the Public Integrity Bureau, which investigates police misconduct
NEW ORLEANS, May 22 (UPI) — A document that shows a New Orleans police sergeant only talked about a post-Katrina police shooting in 2010 raises questions about the department’s response.
Sgt. Lesia Mims discussed the killing of Henry Glover when she was interviewed by the FBI, The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune reported. She said five years after the fact she had known about problems with the shooting since shortly after it happened, the newspaper said, citing an FBI document.
Three officers were convicted of shooting Glover or covering it up, although one later won an appeal. Glover, 31, was found in a burned-out car, his body burned.
Last year, the New Orleans Police Department closed its internal investigations into police misconduct after the 2005 hurricane and attempts to cover up wrongful shootings. A number of officers who failed to report misconduct were fired or retired.
The Times-Picayune said it had not been able to determine if the FBI gave the department information about Mims.
Mims, who has been with the department 23 years, is married to a police lieutenant. She was promoted to the Public Integrity Bureau, which investigates police misconduct, after the Glover shooting.

Title:
Liberals Go Ballistic Over Anti-Obama Signs In New Orleans…
Source:
Uploaded by xxxxxxxpimptaddyone on Sep 29, 2011
There are several political signs attracting all kinds of attention in one Uptown neighborhood.
On Wednesday, crowds gathered at the corner of Calhoun and Coralie streets, looking at several signs depicting President Barack Obama as either a dunce, a puppet or a crying baby in a diaper.
“It disrespects the nation — and President Barack Obama represents our nation,” said Skip Alexander, as he looked at one of the signs. “He represents everybody, not some people.”
Dozens of protesters came by the house in the 1500 block of Calhoun throughout the day, demanding the sign come down.
“He wouldn’t do that to [President] Bush, I’m sure. It’s just insulting. It’s insulting,” said C.C. Campbell-Rock. “He’s going to have to take them down.”
“This is nothing put pure racism,” said Raymond Rock. “This is a disgrace.”
The home is owned by Timothy Reily, who declined to be interviewed about the signs. Former Mayor Ray Nagin showed up at the house and went inside to speak with Reily. He emerged later and would not comment on what they discussed.
Some neighbors tell Eyewitness News that Reily has been putting the signs up for months. Some of the protesters learned about the signs through a local radio station on Wednesday morning.
“He can put up a sign if he wants to. It doesn’t bother me,” said Harold Gagnet, a neighbor.
“I think it’s fine. It’s on his property,” said Katherine deMontluzin. “He can say whatever he wants.”
The signs have created such a firestorm of controversy, though, that police came to the scene— called in by City Council Member Susan Guidry. She represents the district where the home is located. Guidry said she was concerned about public safety and was trying to figure out if the sign was even legal. She also said she spoke to Reily, but didn’t get far.
“We have to determine that there is a zoning law that prohibits perhaps the size of the sign, perhaps the way that it’s erected, that it is leaning over onto public property,” Guidry said. “Whatever we can use, we will, but of course, we do have to balance that with First Amendment rights.”
Yet, the signs remain in place, fanning the flames of a free speech debate on both sides of the fence.

US police on trial over Katrina killings
Uploaded by AlJazeeraEnglish on Jun 27, 2011
Five police officers in the US city of New Orleans accused of killing civilians in the days following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 are set to go on trial.
The police, whose trial begins on Monday, originally contended they had come under fire from someone on a bridge and were defending themselves.
Yet no guns were ever found, and the only person charged with attacking the police was cleared of all charges.
After a local judge dismissed the charges against six others, the US Justice Department stepped in and is bringing the officers to trial in a federal court.
But beyond this case, federal authorities say the police department is riddled with deep-rooted flaws.
New Orleans, a city with the highest murder rate in the US, is now struggling to build confidence in the police department it depends on for protection.
