Not what you expect from a chaotic dictatorship in decline

Via Say Uncle, there is this story, where the remains of the government is applauding the use of "illegal weapons" and civilian/neighborhood militias to keep law and order.

Contrast this with the US, and especially New Orleans/Louisiana National Guard and LEO post Katrina.

Yet we think that those folks in Egypt are uncivilized.

Seems that they are doing a decent job enforcing local law and order if left alone. But the left thinks that we, in the US, cant and won't be able to do the same.
