Not to make lite of the suffering and hardship...but ahh, when isn't New Orleans and surrounding low-lying areas not in distress during any storm?

And yet people are always seen doing stupid stuff and treating the storms lightly... :o
There would be less rescues...if people were not stupid.
The clips speak for themselves...that last one...a lithium loaded vehicle...in a habitual flood zone...
As Bill Engvall would say..."Here's your sign!"

I recall years ago there was a proposal to pay every resident of New Orleans (or parts of it?) $40K to leave rather than rebuild.
Not enough graft possible so it was killed.
