The mainstream media/government should keep their opinions to themselves then...Let people make their own choices… they chose to live thereThe weather channel and the federal and state and local officials were quick to cover their asses and tell everyone to get on the road and head north but it's likely that the politicians and the weather people had helicopters standing by. What happens to families in overheated cars or when they have flat tires and when they are stuck in twelve hour traffic jams? What happens to a family with an infant and dirty diapers and hungry kids who have to piss in bottles in front of each other on the road to nowhere? Will anybody apologize to them if it was all for naught?
As opposed to not issuing an evacuation order, having Irma hit Miami directly, and dozens of those same people ending up homeless or dead?
After what just happened in Texas, and with the power of this hurricane, of course the government is going to be cautious. It's an understandable desire to both keep people safe and cover their asses.
Was anyone forcibly removed from Miami? I'm not sure of the law in Florida and Miami regarding evacuation orders, but it seems to me that there are always people who stay in their homes and ignore such orders.
Now the media shouldn't report on severe weather, and government shouldn't inform the public of possible danger? Is this just a troll thread?![]()
Yep. OP is so desperate for attention he wants to repopulate Miami.
And I think he should do just that, and find out exactly how "unaffected" he is in a day or two.
