Wow, amazing video on CNN. Prisoners being removed from a flooded jail near downtown New Orleans. Frightening situation.

Edit: the officials seem to have a good grip on this right now




If they had a good grip on it, the prisoners would never have been there in the 1st place.

There was a projected Cat 5 coming into NO. All of those prisoners should have been moved early. You move prisoners early because you don't want them in gridlock with the civilian population, and you move them to avoid a situation just like this. Yeah, I expect them to cope and come though. But this is not a good situation.
