That seems inappropriate. People die evacuating. People die because of bad evacuation decisions made by politicians in election years. The coasts of the Carolinas have some of the poorest people in the country inhabiting the land. Do you know this? I do, very well. A mandatory evacuation is a huge deal for them. It's not a big deal for rich vacationing northerner invading the OBX or whatever for a week, but for those living in poverty, evacuation orders are a really big deal. And when they are this widespead, early, and wrong, it's an even bigger deal. Also to the board "queen?", i never referred to this storm as a bust. Reading is fundamental.

Had Sandy not struck the most populated (and expensive) region in the US, the damages would've been moderate at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rita. 111 deaths DURING the evacuation. There wasn't enough time. Now, public officials that you elect make the call for a mandatory evac so why are you here spewing about it? This is a weather site.

I don't think you realize that in these cases "mandatory" does not mean what you think it means. No one is drug out of their homes. No one has police officers at their door saying "get out or you are under arrest". If someone cannot physically evacuate, they wont. stop being so naive...
