I think rescue workers wanted to get in there and ...rescue. The authorities, and their parent organizations stopped them. You're going into a disaster zone...it's not going to be safe. It's not going to be secure.
It's not a matter of preferential treatment. The fears were racially motivated, by people who thought these stories were realistic. Most of the reports defy logic, and if they happened, we should expect details. We have photos of everything, including the looting... but I don't see footage of people dragging out TV's ...and I don't see footage of "crunked out shootouts". I think it's very unlikely it happened on a level that will ever justify "securing the city" as a priority. On the contrary, I see a "rerengade bus driver" who should be a hero. I see a family being stopped in a stolen vehicle, and the Father handcuffed. I heard the mayor saying he was putting 1500 police officers on the ground just to fight crime, not rescue. In the USA, people that were supposed to be rescued and provided for were under military lockdown instead. Why? Because they're Black, and there were rumors of chaos....which in turn created chaos.
