So .. Fyre Festival?
At least in this situation, they should be able to turn around and drive home. That is, if the last gas stations to that location don't run out. FEMA should already have tankers ready to head out there. More than food; having fuel to make it back to populated areas is probably more important.
- rocqua 7y agoIf I were FEMA I'd have fuel and water trucks lined up. Moreover, I'd keep that fact quiet so as not to encourage anyone.
- kenneth 7y agoWhy is it FEMA's responsibility to help idiots who are doing things they've been warned not to do that'll probably kill them?
- oh_sigh 7y agoProbably because the government thinks you don't deserve to die even if you're stupid. Just like people who get helped even though they stay in the path of hurricanes despite evac orders
- hutzlibu 7y agoVery noble view of the government .. another view is, the government wants order, and desperate people tend to do drastic things, which disturbs order. And with evac orders ... there is also the assumption that not everybody got the order clearly (or understood it) and you would have upset citiciens who complain the government let elder people die ..
