Southern Hero Who Saved Thousands Gets Sickening News From The Government According to recent reports, the government is attempting to regulate the Cajun Navy after their attempts to rescue countless people from the Louisiana flooding. Instead of rewarding the group for their efforts or showing any form of gratitude, one lawmaker (and a Republican, no less) has decided that the group needs to be controlled. For the most part, these people are not going to wait for assistance, Cajun member Dustin Clouatre of St. Amant said of the groups efforts. Theyre doers. But reports indicate that Republican State Sen. Jonathan Perry told WWL-TV he is working on a bill that would require training, certificates, and a permit fee to allow the Cajun Navy to get past law enforcement in flooded areas. At the end of the day, there are going to be two things that are going to be the hurdle when you approach it from the states standpoint, Sen. Perry said. Liability is going to be number one for them. They dont want the liability of someone going out to rescue someone and then not being able to find them, and secondly, theres a cost. Perry said that with a signed waiver and regulation, liability would no longer be an issue.
