I think that the "refugees" are (for the most part) WIC, AFDC, etc, dependent persons who now get to rely upon more gubmint handouts....a permanent underclass maintained by the govt.

And to think some people despise illegals who put their children on the school bus to get an education while they work their a??es off all day.
These 'citizens' had an opportunity to board busses headed out of the city for safety and didn't take it. They could have at least gotten their children out.

The entitlement class raised on the teat of gov't maintained by Dimocratic policies. People who will never grow up and take responsibility because they have never needed to.

Isn't it amazing what "lack of ambition" results in.

I agree, Pondman! This is evidence of LBJ's Great Society Legacy being played out for all to see on national television. I am sure all of the dem/lib/socialists are proud! (Of course, they will all say it is Bush's fault, not theirs.)

Believe whatever makes you feel better. Many or most people in there do not fit that description, and none of them deserve to be going through this. There was NO public transportation to get people out, no buses, no guarantee of shelter. People without cars or without money or relatives for shelter couldn't get out. Sick people couldn't travel. To outrun the storm, you had to leave early, and many people thought they'd be safer riding it out in their homes then walking anywhere and getting nowhere.

The rush to blame these people, who are suffering beyond most people's capacity to understand, is revolting. Sometimes bad things happen to people who don't deserve it.

True, if on welfare, free housing, free medical and on food stamps? Then, WTH do they have to go back to?
