How about the crippled people who cant drive, walk, talk, wipe their own asses, wanna prop them up on the side of I-10 so they can "thumb it" out of town?

It's not as easy as just hitching a ride out of town, as much as you might like to think it is, it's not. And 80% of 1.6M SAFELY evacuated is pretty fucking impressive. A lot of people helped you out when you needed it and didn't tell you to "thumb it"

show some fucking compassion
I got no love for people who turn into animals looting & shooting after 2 days.

And my heart pours out for the elderly, sick & mentally handicapped who couldn't make it out. Trust me on that.
