Re: Katrina- Aftermath

I agree with Staggers America knew the hurricane was coming and ordered the people of New Orleans to leave. Why then did they not provide transport for the hospitals & poor who had no transport of there own so they too could leave? As has been said the bowl they were told to shelter in was not safe. Those with money could leave those who had none were left to fend for themselves. I think it's disgusting that a country as rich as America should leave it's sick and poor to suffer & in many cases die in this way
As for the looters they are only committing a crime if they are taking anything other than food, fluids or medical supplies after all they are just trying to survive
