I have mixed feelings about his outburst. I do appreciate how he manages to convey his frustration and anger for the people of his city. I wonder somewhat if there wasn't something that could have been done on his part prior to the hurricane. I heard predictions that it was going to hit their city before people were trapped there. Yet I am surprised that the people were bussed to a facility where no one had planned to provide food and water. It's a sad situation all around.
Personally I have one question (not intended to threadjack) - Why would people choose to live in a city that has such a tenuous hold on land that they need multiple levees to hold back the ocean. I understand the necessity for some countries but here in the United States there are much cheaper places to live than in New Orleans and much safer places to live. Why do people do it?
