Who were the idiots that turned the boat brigade back at LaPlace?


I can't answer that, brah - lots of people were acting on their own authority - I don't want to second guess them, but there wasn't a lot of coordination or proactive measures being taken for a few days.

We (the Guard) were literally in reactive mode until sometime Wednesday afternoon - really Thursday, before we could become proactive again.

Other National Guard assets from other states had to wait for the Govenor to request assistance, it's illegal for say the Govenor of New York to deploy asstets to LA until the request is made, takes time.
