The thing that disturbs me the most is pictures on one side of people trapped in their homes and stuck in various parts of New Orleans because they couldn't get out, and on the other side pictures of hundreds of school buses and city buses mid window deep in water, never moved to the service of these people.

In a city with a huge population of low income people who likely don't have transportation to get out of the city, I think the city (mayor and others) made a major mistake by not getting these busses on the roads and out picking people up.

Even at 50 people per bus, thousands of people could have been moved to higher ground before this turned to shit.

It's the little things that piss me off - because a collection of little things could have changed everything.
