Anyone watch Nightline last night? Koppel was talking to the Chief of Police, the Director of New Orleans Homeland Security, and the army General in charge of the troops. He asked them about Nagin's statement that the city was now under martial law. They all had different definitions of "martial law" and different opinions of whether it was in effect or not.
It's pretty frightening to see that there is still nobody in charge down there. Koppel asked the Director of NOLA Homeland Security about all the outside cops who have come to give NOLA cops a break, and who oversees them. The guy just shrugged and said, "we're still trying to get our hands around that."
