The "infrastracture" has to stay on focus. Those police in the car had a mission. And in the midst of chaos, they'd best stay on focus. Hard choices are exactly what disasters are about.

I just saw it on TV; saw another woman blaming cops or firefighters for something else.

It is particularly dangerous for rescue people to STOP TO HELP in the midst of a very stressed out crowd like this -- they'd be swamped and overwhelmed within minutes. Hysteria rules people in situations like this, not always, but fairly consistently.

Their mission is to serve and protect. They did neither.
