‘No driving west to Houston on River Road’.

Why not? Is that a major route?

Walking 60 miles in a day for four days in a row?

Are you serious?

“Latoya? Got to be a Dem. She’s as “stuck on stupid” as the mayor during Katrina.”

That would be “Chocolate City’s” Ray Nagin.

That’s an average pace of a fast walking pace for 12 hours. A hurricane’s coming, hoof it!

Hey, the last time they didn’t evacuate, they got free LVs and lap dances. They’re not going anywhere until that little lagniappe is repeated.

So, all those Houses that were built after Katrina using Billions in Taxpayer Money in areas below Sea Level will be wiped out.

Common Sense takes another holiday.

I remember doing the March for Hunger back in the 70’s when I was a teen and in very good condition.

It was a 20 mile hike and by the end of that, I was shot.

And that was in Buffalo, not known for it’s hot climate.

Twelve hours of 5 mph walking might be doable if you trained for it, but outside of that, it’s completely unrealistic.

People are going to need to stop and eat, take bathroom breaks, take care of sore feet, get enough water, etc.

If you find someone who can walk 240 miles in four days, let me know.

Are you in the New Orleans area or some other part of the state?

Electricity, water, natural gas, food supplies, etc will be a main concern
for a few days until they get organized. People will be standing by
but
it takes time to get it all there.

Yes, we are! Been working on this awhile. We thought Melbourne, but it turned out Panama City.
