LOL!

One thing that doesn't make sense to me: wouldn't a "magnet" be *good* because they wanted to get the people out of their houses and out of the city, and the locations where the Red Cross would set up would be likely staging areas to then evacuate people?

I can appreciate that there might be crowd control issues. And maybe Blanco lacked sufficient NG force to quell disorder. But to blame relief shortage on somebody else is despicable.
