"Unfortunately, the civilized rule of "Women and children first" seems to have gone down with the Titanic."

That's what I was wondering about. I thought the best way was to go down the lines, pick out the women, children, sick, and elderly and load them on the buses first. Why are there still babies and children around? In the wartime, the British parents gave up their children to be taken by trains to safety in the countryside. Always get the women, children, sick, and elderly out first. When did this rule disappear for disaster scenarios???

Did you see where they were saying women and children only and some guy put on a wig and grabbed a baby and tried to get on a bus? The cop knew he was a guy and ripped the wig off and gave the baby back to it's mother.
