Everyone was NOT under mandatory evacuations. Up and down Bolivar Peninsula, to High Island didn't have mandatory evacuations. And, it takes 36 hrs. to evacuate Galveston. 36hrs. was Wed. when we thought the storm was going to hit 150 miles north of here! And, many areas in the Gulf Coast have to wait until Galveston evacuates, so that we don't have another Rita! So before you get on your fucking high horse, read the fucking facts first. This storm was huge! And, not everyone was told to evacuate, and now there is devastation everywhere! From Houston to Galveston! Even in those places they said NOT to evacuate!

i know she is normally a dick head, but i think she has a bloody good point!!!!
It makes me slightly sad to say so, but sometimes i think you americans just never fucking learn!!! Let me explain….
I live in England, where EVERY house is built of stone and has at least EIGHT feet foundations holding it to the earth, and we dont even have exotic weather like hurricanes!!! Yet every year there is at least one massive hurricane in america, and every year the news covers the devistation of whole towns been blown away… how many times does your crappy wooden house have to get completly destroyed before you learn to build better houses more suited to your weather patterns?????????????
On the extreme rare occasions england has been battered by hurricane winds, no ones house fell down!!! The roof may have slipped, but not one single house actually blew away. This just goes to show, if wooden houses continue to blow away, USE STONE YOU COCKS! If the weather people say your all gonna die if you dont evacuate, well then, just fucking evacuate!!!!

Seriously? Seriously?? Why are we even being forced to pay attention to her. I pretty much live in Houston and I don't recall EVER hearing the NWS issue a "Certain Death Warning" in the 9,089 hours of news I watched leading to and following this damn hurricane. Yep…they were dumb for not leaving. Shut up though.

well people need to remember what happened when Texas evacuated for i think it was hurricane rita..there were more deaths on the evacuation route than from the actual storm..these texans didn't forget that..they seen first hand the horrors of evacuating..maybe florida does something different in how they evacuate that all other states could learn from but as of now that isn't the case. Evacuating is not as easy as just jump in a car and drive. In one hour we had only drove 3 miles when we evacuated for Gustav..and also had not even drove a mile in 45 min..EVACUATING is NOT an easy thing..many people fear being trapped on the road for the storm.

Re: blondie1979 –
Even if they said you don't need to evactuate and that your in a safe place anyone with some common sense would've left regardless. People don't know how mother nature is going to turn out so why take the risk.. you are in the same state that is going to be hit by Ike so get out.

Re: antboy –
Oh really?? .. I can only assume that people in Texas and probably yourself don't own a television? For some odd reason myself (in Florida) and I'm sure thousands of other people including Texas happen to know Ike was heading towards Texas at the end of the week. Isn't it odd though that half of Texas manage to evacuate in a timely manner. So, tell me how were you not warned again? Keep in mind it was on the news for weeks.

I hate Adriene but I agree with her fully! I live in Florida and if I was given fair warning days before hand that this hurricane would be huge you bet I had a plan to get the fudge out! I stayed in a small tropical storm which even that small scared the hell out of me enough for me to learn to leave next time. I do however, think that if hurricane came out of the blue then that's a different story. I'm sure all these people were warn unless they don't own a tv, radio or can't read a newspaper.

She's an ignorant bitch. She's obviously never had to evacuate from anywhere. Re: lick – And just because people don't evacuate like they are told to means they don't deserve to be rescued? You're ignorant to.

I want to know the $ amount that gets spent on bullshit b/c of all these celebrities..i bet it's WAY more than what is spent on the rescue efforts in natural disasters..come on people we are funding this useless war..but ya'll are going to bitch about people in our own country being helped…WTF????

I live in southern louisiana, and i did evacuate my family for hurricane Gustav..all at my own expense. A 3 hr ride took 12 hrs. They would not let us exit the interstate..if you ran out of gas or broke down you were just stranded..this is the reason soo many don't evacuate..not everyone can withstand that type of ride. If you needed a restroom you were out of luck all u could do was pull off on the median and use it on the side of the road. Imagine the elderly in this type of situation. No one should judge these people that stayed..we don't know their situations..if you want to be treated with compasion in hard times then that is how you should treat others.
