Fed response to disasters is always the last to arrive. Why the NOLA
officials don't have an effective mechanism in place and channel of

the Feds know where they were telling people to gather!

It's a horrible situation but ultimately those who decided to stay, for
whatever reason, must bear some responsibility for their own outcome. I
realize you feel the Feds should be there at our beck and call, but anyone
who is realistic will know better.

It's easy to micromanage the situation from your perspective in front of
your TV screen but armchair observations are of little help--even if they do
sell papers and boost TV ratings.
Vaj you have a very good perspective, intellectual, not emotional perspective of the situation. NOLA and LA. are supposed to plans ready for these kinds of events and the Feds aid those plans. There is a terrible lack of communication on everybody's part which makes the whole thing even more frustrating. The feds have given the governor everything she has asked for and more. Obviously it's the feds that are having to come in and clean up the lack of preparedness of the local governments. things could have been further along had the Governor grown some balls and declared martial law with a shoot to kill policy a couple of days ago.
