Katrina

[Elcoholic]

Well one its hard to evacuate people that don't want to go or can't go. If people don't follow the evacuation orders then its no ones fault but themselves. Also people staying behind to help those that need help too. etc etc.. you got alot of reasons.

Also do you really know how much it takes to do a mass military movement? you think it can be done in 2 hours? you can't do that shit instantly. Military has to go through proper channels get special orders and authorizations and then even that they have to accomidate transportation and such. Even so regular times you are expected to be ready to go if called and be gone in 2 days.

Also the hurricane didn't hardly do damage to NO. its all the levey's that broke that has done all the damage.

What the hurricane did destory was Gulport/Biloxi Mississippi which i was there for 4 months at this same time of year last year. Everything on the coast was destroyed from the high winds.

I hear alot of people who are stuck there saying they had no means of evacuating.

They knew the storm was coming like a week or even more before didn't they? I'm sure the army could have prepared an operation in a week.

And I'm from a country that's larglely under the sea. If our levey's and dams break 50% of my country could be flooded. We know when a big storm comes that those are the weak points. I just doubt that it never crossed their minds that they would break. Maybe if they predicted it and spread the news more people would have been evacuated.

And I'm sorry Ka-Ta but you go ahead and turn a blind eye. I know many people are doing their best to help but they can't magically let blankets apear or botled water or armed police men for protection or busses for transportation. The people giving help must be the most frustrated of all people there. Critisism is needed so next time (lets hope there won't be one) things get handled better.

Luckily the situation has become a little better now with most of the city evacuated. They say it could take up to 80 days to drain the sewage systems.
