Well, reporting from an overpass w/hundreds of stranded, and some now dying! refugees, w/officials within eyeshot, but inexplicably ignoring them, just may do that to a person, IMO.

In human terms, it's known as frustration and desperation.

Why can't military helicopters fly food/water to those people?

Last night, Shep was trying to ask a police officer questions...the police officer wouldn't answer him...he just kept walking away.....and that's in front of a camera....

Imagine what people are being treated like with no cameras? (Not saying there's any abuse...)

Maybe Shep/Fox figured this is the only way to get help brought down to the people there...the people who are asking for direction/help, water/food....and being, literally, ignored about what to do.

It’s weird!
The whole thing is very strange.

The Salvation Army is saying they went as far as they would let them go with the food?

You don’t see the all-out effort to help that you would expect.

I know there is shooting now, but there wasn’t an all-out effort before that started.

It took days to get food and water to people standing on the overpass a short distance from the Dome.
