HOLY SHIT

I'm not talking about repairs, I'm talking about clear leadership with a clear plan of evacuation, along with the immediate fate of their rescue. Until this morning, people were standing out on highways, blocked in with armed checkpoints so they couldn't walk to safety or away from where they ended up. When they recused people off rooftops, they dropped them on the highway that leads to the Convention Center, and left them without provisions for days. There is no defense for the Mayor, or ANYONE involved in the rescue planning. Millions watched Monday morning, and using common sense, we all knew the situation was dire. How many of us watched this go down and could tell there was going to be a situation the second they said go to a Sports Stadium if you're stuck in the city, without providing people a method to even get there!

The Silverdome isn't a shelter. The convention center is not a shelter. They did not use any of the traditional locations citys use as designated temporary shelters. They didn't stock them with enough water, medecine, and food. They created situations where officials, media, and first responders feared for their own saftey, and evacuated the place designated as a safety zone. That is inexcusable. If you're the mayor of a city, it's your job to make sure your city is outfitted with proper shelters. I blame ALL the authorities. You have to be outraged and angry by what you're seeing, and I can't imagine how anyone can realistically say this was all a circumstance of a natural disaster. I'm angry, I'm sure you're angry too... I can't tell you exactly what could have been done better, but I don't think it's much of an argument about what should have been done differently.
