Re: wowhappens28 #1851
You 'many options' are contradicted by both past experience and by the uncertainty of the direction of the storm. I can't do your reading for you.

Again, has the governor stated what offers of help from him have been turned down, or not? I'm waiting.

Maybe the mayor was busy doing his job. And since when are you in favor of the larger State entity overruling local gov.?

Meanwhile, give it another whirl:

Quote:
There was a lot of conversation about the direction in which hurricane Harvey was going to go,” he said at a news conference Sunday. “No one knew which direction it was going to go. So it’s kind of different to send people away from danger when you don’t know where the danger is.”

He added that trying to evacuate the city in such a short time would have been logistically “crazy,” as history has shown.

“Remember the last time we evacuated, there was a great deal of confusion, great deal of chaos,” the mayor said. “There were people that were going to Austin that were on the road 10 to 12 hours, if not longer. There were people who ran out of gas on their way — a great deal of confusion.”


Turner was referring to the city’s evacuation ahead of Hurricane Rita in 2005, a disastrous effort that resulted in dozens of deaths and widespread criticism of the authorities.
