Well, one of the CNN commentators said something today about what they did with the people in the jails as Katrina bore down on New Orleans, they RELEASED THEM

Um, did anybody check what they were jailed for in the first place before letting any serial rapists or ax murderers walk? Suggested that they go to the Convention Center or the Dome for refuge, I guess. Along with 15-20,000 unarmed women and children and sick people and Geraldo. And apparently less than 10 policemen. There was also at least one prison which was flooded but they didn't say if or how they evacuated any of the inmates. The law enforcement there admits they have no idea what happened to the thousand and thousands of registered sex offenders and have no means or priority to check on them right now. The Police Chief (an African-American) also admitted that nobody was searched or checked in any way before being admitted to the refuges. Gangs entered freely, bringing drugs and weapons, with tragically predictable results.

I hope nobody is still trying to tell the media "We had no idea it would happen like this/be this bad/get out of control." How did we ever get so many stupid people in one place and one time like this?
