24 elderly dead in bus fire

evacuating the texan megalopoli by merely advising people leave strikes me as a bit small minded.
even tiny minded people in other countries watching the screen can see a traffic jam on one side of the hiway and nothing going the other way.
has nobody ever visited the golden gate bridge?
when traffic must flow, they use the other side.
So when evacuating a populous these republican mental juggernauts feel it is more than adequate to make announcements and then perform no management at all of the arteries they have told the corpuscles to flow on. Send in more army maybe and externalize all responsibility, after all it is nature - these storms, not a problem of humanity like bin laden or drugs etc...
I am astonished at how a people can be so cruelly ignored by it's president - repeatedly - shockingly - and idiotically, and still he is not impeached.

i think we are smart enough now so that we can have evacuation schedules...everyone knows exactly when they should leave and what route to take...and even what gas station to go to.
it doesn't seem like it would be hard to plan something like that and send out letters to an entire city. yeah not everyone would read the letter or follow the plan...but some kind of organization like that would help.

they are only using 1/2 of the highways as if everything is normal, but it is the hugest evacuation ever planned. southbound is clear and unused, and north bound lanes clogged hello, what is wrong with this picture???? traffic is going 3 miles in 10 hours buses and cars are overheating this bus blew up because of overheating. now they are blaming the lowest eschelon of service persons for their errors, and nature for the rest, as if global warming were not a human folly too.

Very simple really. This is what people want.

My computer chose to play Pink Floyd - On the Turning Away after reading your post...thought that was appropriate. Just a fucking momentary lapse of reason.

I think what we need to face here is the fact that America land of the free is not headed in that direction at this time. We have been becomming less free for awhile. Now basic humanity is motivated by fear and love. Fear is driving the majority and few can even comprehend what is going on. Like sheep they will crowd as far into the middle as they can seeking relief from there fears. And that's about it for the majority. GB plays to their fears and they follow without question, even when he leads them to the killing floor. You can see it every day.

It was senior citizens, and after the bus caught on fire, their oxygen tanks started exploding.
If it was young people, I wonder if anyone would've died, but senior citizens are not as fit for escape from such drastic situations.

This is not a time for common sense. This is a time to blame the political party/god that you oppose and milk it for all its worth.
What is 24 lives compared to you pwning someone in a political debate about your views on society?
edit: this is sarcasm
