The most difficult of times - New Orleans PD

A news broadcast just came through on ABC that has everything to do with Katrina, everything to do with animals, everything to do with the state of affairs.

24 police officers have resigned from the New Orleans Police Department and 2 have committed suicide.

The situation is so grave, the bodies, the destruction, the chaos... they can't deal with it any longer. They are only human and have hit their limits.

Another ABC news clip was with George Stefanolpolitz and a senator from LA doing a helicopter tour of the city and giving a bird's eye view of the catastrophic damage. The senator was in tears during most of the helicopter flight and the interview. She said she has met the President on Friday, looked him eye to eye, and begged for troops, equipment, help - it the US has it - the regions need it, and they need it now.

"Mr. President, please stop doing photo ops, and help the people in this region survive and recover."
