Wouldn't regular people show up at the Convention Center with a few groceries and extra bottles and diapers? Or was it the crowd that expected the government was going to take care of them. Sounds like a CRASH of the welfare system. Someone needs to review, that poor choices do have consequences. So laying out under the bridge on the Mississippi River, and going out at night to turn tricks and do crack or sucking bourbon may not be a wise way to spend a living.

A video pan of the convention center deck after the last "guest" was airlifted out showed a row along the bulwark of stuff that wasn't taken on the copters. It looked like a lot of trash, but included a lot of Coleman-type coolers, either brought there by the people or airlifted in by the same copters.
