someone said they had no means to get out, all I can say is whatever !!!!! GOD gave them two feet right, as far as handicapped ppl, what do you think the odds are that they DIDNT know anyone that didnt have a car ?? pretty slim I would have to say. It was there choice to stay behind , I feel very sad about the destruction for there homes, but as far as ppl dying, that was pretty senseless. 2 feet ppl 2 feet.
ignorant. you have no idea what you're talking about. it's easy to say those things when you're sitting in your house watching this on video and not experiencing it. yes, it seems simple but most things are not as simple as the seem. and the fact that you can watch this and not only think but post something so negative and judgmental rather than be compassionate speaks volumes for your character.
@mindiree well the goverment sent BUSES for people and they chose to say so NO it does not make me ignorant it makes me think were the hell did there common sense go thats what i want to know...

"Day wount prepare fo nuthin'"
Did you have any preparation? How can anyone not be prepared at all for what MIGHT happen? Nobody knew it would be this bad but how can someone live in this region and not be prepared in any way shape or form?
Evacuated to Hammond , prepared , food Ice, Generator, etc. Most people who stayed also had prepared. and suffered just a little wind damage untill Levees broke water rose so fast all they could save was their lives. I Was NW of NOLA had to clear streets of trees with Chainsaws to get out, drove150 miles for Gas & Ice, etc. Power out for as long as it was and complete destruction of all services for miles around thats hard to prepare for.
Hamilton's documentary is well filmed, crisp and full of details. Filmed from a survivor's perspective, this is an artfully balanced blend of news reporting and neighborly compassion.
I liked the film maker's choice of background music.
Hamilton's view of Katrina is loaded with small details. The film helps put you there. People were clearly in shock, tired, cold, hungry, scared and overwhelmed by the sheer mountain of trash which were once entire homes and communities.

Alot of people had no means to be prepared - etc no vechicles,no money to leave,no place to stay outside the city,no contacts .......
bottom line all they could do was ride out the hurricane.
