The big failure was at the City and State level prior to the storm - nearly 1000 school buses that were left in the city could have been used for evacuating. There were more than enough resources available prior to the storm to get nearly everyone out that had the means the lack of mobilization and execution by the Mayor and Governor is perhaps the biggest failure of the democratic party placed upon it's people other than LBJ and the gun grab that took place in the after math. People should have gone to prison over that.

Why are you so ignorant?

The city didnt have the resources to execute a massive evacuation plan to utilize the school buses..

First of all they only had 24 hours notice once the storm changed its track.....

Secondly....who was going to drive the buses?

You think the city or state could get 1000 bus drivers with Class D license's to NOLA and fire up these buses that had been sitting all summer since May?

Service, oil change, check the tires, etc. in a matter of a few hours?

And what about insurance???

Tell me what insurance company was going to cover 1000 school buses with 100 people on each bus?


Use your fricking head
