You are getting close. Had the buses been deployed (536 buses, each holding 50 people), and driven out of NO, there would not have been all those people stuck in the Superdome. There were 5 people who died in the Superdome. Hundreds, maybe thousands more are dead in nursing homes, attics, their beds. Would you have rather been at the Superdome alive, or dead in your bed? Give me your best and last response, please.

The superdome fiasco slowed the rest of the response by days. The problem wasn't the people who died at the superdome but the diversion of resources to the superdome that let many more others die.
Second big mistake was not blowing up "bayou savage" to let the lake drain much faster.

BTW, newbie, who are you to tell me when my last response will be?

If the state and city followed the emergency plan, and evacuated for 72 instead of 24 hours, more people would have been saved.
