Bussing was offered. No one wanted to go. Hmmm. Wonder why??
"Bussing was offered. No one wanted to go. Hmmm. Wonder why??"
I am missing your implication, "why?"
Refusal was not reported at the time. It was reported that those with no transportation means were told to get to the Superdome. 10,000 evacuated to the Superdome. Are you claiming that they would not have agreed to another shelter? I'd be most interested if you have any other information on that. Further if evacuation is mandatory no choice is offered.
It seems to me that the same buses that are taking people out of the area now should have been used before the hurricane. The whole Superdome shelter idea was irresponsible, ill conceived, and unprepared. Now they can't get them out, or very slowly and with great difficulty and expense. There is tremendous disease risk as sanitation and supplies are non-existant. This was all capable of being anticipated.
FOX is reporting and showing that their are elderly, sick and in wheelchairs who have no way and no where to go. Are you suggesting that those people refused to leave?
These people are dying, now, after the flood for lack of care.
