Same lame apologetics.
They fired "warning" shots over the heads of those people -- who were just trying to walk away from a flooded city. The people weren't waiting for the government to save them, and the government steps in, blocks their way, and threatens to shoot them.
Sounds pretty Stasi to me.

That was an unsurpising decision from a Totalitarian Nation that wipes it's ass on it's own people. |

True grand jury can't be 'appealed', but new gj's can be empanelled over |

I remember that, too! It was a keen reminder we're never actually free of racists, what a damnable, |

I'd welcome a "hung" jury, in this case. Post facto. Assholes. n/t |
