"Also, nobody from FEMA needed armed protection, because the citizens of New York remained orderly, more so than ever before." They didn't need armed protection outside of New Orleans, even assuming they needed it in New Orleans. And those areas are still sans aid. If only a few blocks in the middle of New Orleans had been damaged, it is doubtful that looting would have been a problem either. Knock the whole city out, like when the great blackout occurred, and things change.
