Fredericksburg.com - Packing pills, pistols: "NEW ORLEANS--Randy Gros, pharmacist at Dekle Drugs, goes to work prepared. He carries a 9 mm pistol in a black holster at his side.
'Well, it's just better to exhibit force and to be prepared,' he said. Gros, 48, a druggist since 1989 in this usually laid-back city, doesn't want any trouble, but knows that some people are desperate.
The day after Hurricane Katrina struck the small hamlet of Marrero on the western end of the city where he's lived all his life, his was one of the few pharmacies--much less businesses--that was open, even if it was for only a couple hours.
Gros and his wife, Nancy, who also occasionally packs a smaller pistol in her shorts to guard the back door, have been so effective in getting out what's needed that the Federal Emergency Management Agency set up a drug-distribution center under tents in their parking lot off U.S. 90."
