Having National Guard units familiar with the lay of the land, able to supplement the police, might have been nice.

If you live in a place like central Texas or Oklahoma or Kansas where things are flat, square and even, maybe it's hard to conceptually adjust to extreme terrains like swamps or mountains?

Similarly, Louisiana National Guard might be less than useful in Minnesota in the winter.

There's always something to be said for the home town advantage.

Lousiana boys (and girls) are born with webs between their toes (like ducks), at least that's what we say.

Lousiana boys and girls go out in the rain without an umbrella.

Louisiana boys and girls don't need mosquito repellant. We just let them bite. (Before West Nile, anyway.)

We understand Louisiana dialects, too.
