    it's true. you argue about one thing and people assume something entirely different about you. it's kinda funny.

    anyway, back to topic, the police of NO are not responding quite as well as the NYPD, but it IS a different situation. NYC was ATTACKED. it's easier to stand against a human enemy, so much harder to be strong in the face of chaos and human hysteria:

    We should dump some nuclear waste on a family of seals. That'd show mother nature who's boss.

    I think you going to the toilet has inflicted a detrimental biohazard on the U.S habitat... Nuclear waste would probably HELP nature rather than cause any harm..
