1. Yes, it's on CNN NOW! Said FEMA is officially standing down
rescue operations until they can find a way to safeguard the rescuers!

6. Stopping rescue or evacuations? either is bad. Now they can blame
FEMA's failure on the few looters instead of their own incompetence and failure to plan.

9. Is this our "Zappa moment?"
"The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way, and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theatre." (1977)

10. The death toll will now rise exponentially.
I ain't a prayin' man, but this is taxing my ability to believe in humanity.

14. I think it's all rescue ops too. The reason given is that the situation
is too dangerous and they have stopped all rescue ops until they can figure out a way to safeguard the rescuers.
