Why would tourists still be there?

Very few people rent cars when they fly to New Orleans. They take a cab from the airport. If they could not get out by Saturday (That was FIVE DAYS AGO) they have been stuck there, likely in their hotel rooms, raiding the mini bar and the gift shop, scooping water out of the ice maker to drink.

This isn't Blackhawk Down. These stories are becoming more and more like the movie "28 days later."

It's sad. The tourists are told to go to the convention center and not knowing better, they go there. The stories will eventually come out. Especially it the foreigners that weren't killed at the convention center talk to the media in their home countries.

Yup. I've been referring to the looters/animals/scum as "the infected" for the last 3 days.
