That was a direct quote, NN.
Again, you overlooked the context.
The context was a cause (the Ivan evacuation was a nightmare) and an effect ("people didn't evacuate for Katrina"). I would be happy to discuss the proposition, but my immediate point was that the effect we're asked to accept as true...isn't. It would be like saying "last year's Saints season was a nightmare" (an arguably true statement), "so people don't go to Saints games anymore" (demonstrably false). That's not how logic works.
Please stop acting like an argumentative and ignorant boob. If you had taken the initiative to read the comment in the prior post, you would have understood that magic word—the context. Enough already.
