Lawmakers in Louisiana are calling for National Guard troops to patrol the streets of New Orleans after a toddler was killed in a drive-by shooting. The last time troops were involved in domestic law enforcement in the state, they were used to confiscate legally owned firearms in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Keira Holmes Gordon was caught in the crossfire of two separate groups of men in cars who were targeting another man stood near a B. W. Cooper Housing development on Sunday. The toddler, four days shy of her second birthday, was pronounced dead at the scene. Citing soaring crime levels, state lawmaker Austin Badon Jr. told CNN he “wants the government to step and help control the violence,” by sending troops to patrol troubled areas, although he admitted that just “a select few people” were responsible for the crimes. The CNN host makes clear that Badon is just one of several officials calling for National Guard troops. “I have called on the Governor to bring in the National Guard,” said Badon, asserting that residents were “more comfortable” after seeing the Guard patrol the streets in 2005 during Hurricane Katrina. “We are at war and when you’re at war, you have to bring in soldiers,” said Badon, describing the situation as “urban warfare,” and complaining about people who own guns. A spokesman for Governor Bobby Jindal’s office said no request had been made from the mayor to send National Guard troops to patrol the streets. Concern about military involvement in domestic law enforcement, which is a violation of Posse Comitatus, has surged in recent weeks as a result of a provision in the National Defense Authorization Act which allows Americans to be arrested and held in a detention camp without trial. Presidential frontrunner Ron Paul has also repeatedly warned that martial law and gun confiscations could become widespread in the aftermath of a civil emergency. “The call for military reinforcements is reminiscent of the city’s post-Katrina era, when thousands of National Guard and U.S. Army troops were mobilized and sent to New Orleans after reports of widespread violence in the days after the storm,” states the CNN report. Indeed, Hurricane Katrina was hastily exploited by the federal government and local officials to conduct unconstitutional gun grabs, with National Guard troops going to door to door and confiscating the firearms of citizens who lived in high and dry areas and were largely unaffected by the hurricane. Watch the video below, produced by the NRA, which documents how local authorities hijacked the state of emergency and sent armed troops to seize the firearms of law-abiding citizens at gunpoint, a shocking abuse of power that has never been properly accounted for.

The thousands of illegal alien gangbangers Bush brought in to "rebuild" NOLA, are now fighting with the black gangbangers. Deport the illegal alien invaders, and the problem is half solved.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Are you nuts? I say "circle the town with armed troops,and then drop in weapons and ammo so they can kill each other off. MAYBE let the last two left standing leave so they can pass the world to their pals back home on what to expect in the future. That way you would solve the whole problem.

Neither Congress nor the President has the authority to nullify the US Constitution,which strictly forbids such things.

The blacks and hispanics pretty much hate each other for some reason..... When I was in Texas the north side of town was pretty much all blacks and hispanics... They hated each other so much that they spent much of their time just trying to "whack" each other and left everyone else alone for the most part....(crime on the south side of town was pretty much non-existent).... There was one street that was the boundary between them, almost all of the houses sat empty and had very few windows and many bullet holes in them....
"CHANGE" you can step in.....
