[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 183483, member: 324"] Finger pointing and blame-laying is already in full-swing. Was listening to a radio show last night, and the "reporter" (I use that term very loosely) was TRYING to pin blame on a judge who did not order immediate evacuation. The judge (I am sure that most judges are intelligent) was calmly making his case, and the reporter was really trying hard, to paint him into a corner. Questions like "If more people show up at the emergency shelters, will there be enough food and beds for them?". What a candy-ass question.. What an open-ended question, for which there can be no real answer. These "reporters" and the epidemic of fake news, are really stirring up more sentiment and emotion and anger, than I can believe. This jackass was doing his level-best to take an already tough situation, and fan the flames, pointing the finger (after the fact) at a man who was doing his best in a difficult situation. The judge pointed out, as people on this site have, that evacuation 5 or 6 or 7 million people would have been a nightmare, and more people would have died stuck in traffic, than will die in the flood. And yet this reporter pretty much wanted guarantees to open-ended questions. "Do you think it will be alright?". What a turd... [/QUOTE]
