No. If LA had enough National Guard at home where they are supposed to be and if Bush would have sent in the military ASAP, the situation would be a lot better now. And don't tell me they can't get there that fast. They can. They can freaking drop food and paratroopers if they wanted to and I'm sure there are other ways they could have got more aid in there faster. There were "no" first responders either.
