Do you mean the blocking of the Mississippi River Bridge by the Gretna cops? That story has gotten a lot of press, for good reason, but to me, relative to the overall picture here, before and after the flood, the reality was so much worse than that bridge blocking that I think it is not one of the events that will add or detract much from a pretty impressive list of hard feelings felt for various reasons by the oppressed in this area, over the years. And a good few in the "bridge mob" were tourists.
