Mayor of Houston did not order a mandatory evacuation, so many people thought that they were safe.
Army Corp of Engineers is releasing water to protect dams. That water will wipe out new developments around Houston. With communications out, the people living there do not know it is coming.
Many on FR were defending the mayor yesterday.
Of course, Trump will be blamed by the MSM for all this by mid-week.
Is the mayor a dem?

Did the Demonut Mayor leave ?
Everyone knew it would be bad. Those who stayed knew they were taking a risk and were willing to do it.
Damage may match Katrina...
There is a difference between telling people they MUST evacuate and telling them they should STAY. As I heard it, this mayor told people to ignore the Governor-trust him instead-and NOT leave. Of course no one was prevented from evacuating, but hearing a Mayor say NOT to would tend to make trusting sorts feel safe. I think he’s criminally liable and would make a good companion for Ray-Ray Nagin in jail.
