Seeing what happened before and acting on it might have saved a lot more.

I do know that leadership isn't easy but that's what leadership is.

They did everything except go door to door with a gun forcing people out of their homes. If they would have parked the school buses on the corner to take people out of town very few people would have gotten on.

What would you have done if your choice was to leave your house and with 100% certainty have it looted by the gang banger thugs next door or take you chances like you had in the 15 or 20 previous evacuations?

BTW-The New Orleans area evacuated 900,000 to a 1,000,000 people in less than 48 hours.

Can you please provide evidence to me where another American City with only two viable roads heading out was as successful.

I am willing to bet you cannot find one example.
