They need to get Hysterical if it gets these folks out.

Why bother? The warnings have been many. You can't force ignorant, stupid people to practice safety. If that were the case, auto collisions would be reduced dramatically.

They just reported people are wandering all over Bourbon St, and the bars are packed. If they are this stupid, there is little that can be done about it. So be it.

Fox news just said lots of tourists are stranded. Can't get a plane or bus out. If the hotel they are staying at is going to remain open and management is confident it will survive the hurricane, why not go out to Bourbon St.? What else are they going to do?

It's too bad all the bus stations and air ports are closed. It would be easier to evacuate everyone now then it will be after the city is destroyed and flooded.
