Agree 100%. Law enforcement was ineffectual, maybe ultimately for pc reasons. Sickening congratulations heaped on each other. You’d think it was New Jersey.
They did the same thing in NJ. They held press conferences and acted like they had stood back all of the damage. Meanwhile, people are displaced in the dead of winter without food, water or shelter.
They are so desperate to not look like the stooges during Katrina that they rush to the cameras to yell at people, “Look at us! We are here doing what you pay us for. Don’t ask for budget cuts or we may not be here next time.” They don’t even realize that they were not effective the entire time.
Sickening is all I could say watching that award ceremony last night. If they (government) had done their job in the first place, this may not have happened at all.
