Apparently the NO police told people that they could no longer go to the convention centre or the SuperDome and they must now exit NO and cross a rather large bridge where they would be buses waiting to take the people to safe locations. When they crossed the bridge the police from the neighbouring town, another jurisdiction, said there were no buses and the people should go back to NO, shooting off their rifles in the air and forcing the evacuee's back into the storm. People had to camp out on the bridge during the storm. Once the worst part of the storm was over, the police came by and took their food and water to force them off the bridge and back to the flooded areas of NO.
It's nice to know we aren't as fuked up as this s**t has turned into.
