"Who cares if snipers put you in danger, your priority has to be risking your life to save lives. "

I gotta say I agree with that. I'm glad as hell that I'm not in that chopper, but turning away from a hospital full of people? If there were no armed national guard on the chopper shouldn't they have come right back with some people to return fire and try to get an evacuation going?

I don't know, all this is second guessing, but all across the board, concidering people have been planning for this type of event, and it turns out, this speciffic event, one would think this wouldn't have turned out to be such a huge disaster. PART of the scenario FEMA game played was only partial response to a manditory evacuation.

And where is homeland security on all of this? Are they saying "Well, you know, if terrorists had blown up the levees, we'd be all over this like flies on shit, but sadly we are not aloowed to help here."
