Police State

Eight years after Hurricane Katrina, judge dismisses libel cases against the feds, specifically the Army Corp of Engineers.
"U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval Jr. has dismissed the cases. The move comes more than a year after a federal appeals court overturned his ruling that held the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers liable for flooding caused by lax maintenance of a shipping channel."
"More than 500,000 residents, businesses and governments filed claims against the Corps. People in southern Louisiana have long taken for granted that the flooding in the wake of the 2005 storm was a man-made disaster — one caused specifically by the corps — and they have wanted the agency to pay up for lost homes and property."
No justice for these people.
