Dude.. they had a week to prepare for it. They knew a CAT 3+ was headed their way.. and Louisana did NOTHING about it. There were people still in the last hour in the French Quarter drinking hurricanes because they did not think they were going to get hit. That is the LOCAL AUTHORITIES FAULT.
If people couldnt afford to leave town... then they had a LAST RESORT shelter called the Superdome.. so thats no excuse.

i kind of agree with this. they made it clear that they werent going to be able to send ambulances or send help at a certain point, if people chose to stay in their homes. so if they couldnt afford to get out of the city, why DIDNT they go to the superdome, where they knew there would be food and concrete walls around them, and medical help standing by? there are a lot of people who DIDNT listen to the warnings. who signed consents that they were CHOOSING to stay in the city, in their homes. i just dont understand how that is the governemnt's fault. people ignored a mandatory evac.
