You would prefer that they are left to drown?
They are taking the most serious patients out by air to Lafayette. The less serious are being moved by boat. I suspect that they're going to start evacuating the SuperDome inhabitants out as soon as they have somewhere else to put them and the means to transport them.
Anyone know if LCACs are being sent?
Sorry, I'm just flaggergasted at the abject incompetence of the disaster planning done by city and state officials. They knew this was coming for years. And they accepted planning that left 100,000 people behind. Now instead of driving them out on roads on Sunday, they have to get them out through water if they don't hurry.
