Lets see, the National guard had assests in use.  The problem was that 
the Govenor did not see fit to call up enough members of her own Guard 
to help nor did she request guard members from other states.  I imagine 
that the equipment state idle until it was called for which takes time 
to get into place.  Also several commanders of guard units told the 
govenor to go to hell unless she would authorize the use of force to 
enforce martial law.  This come straight from a Guard member in Baton Rouge.

As for the active duty troops, they could not help as they are 
constrained by law until the Govenor requests that the Feds take over. 
It is not taking precedence over american lives it is about following 
the law.
