This NO Body Found 9/10! They Just Revovered it Yesterday? *graphic*

Why are they not collecting them sooner? This is so horrible... :cry:

1. Frankly, my dear, they don't give a damn!!!

2. I think it is taking them a lot of time to go to house to house to

assess the situation. But I agree, it is heartbreaking and they should have started sooner and with a larger workforce. :(

3. That stroller makes me want to know if the little kid who belongs in

it made it?

:(

4. I think they were just tagging houses and moving on because they were

still looking for survivors (and looters, I suppose). Frankly, although it's gruesome and probably violates certain religious dictates, whether they retrieve a body immediately or days later doesn't improve that body's chances. It's dead. Timely discovery of survivors is more important.

Whether there were enough people working on search and rescue and recovery is another argument altogether -- but, assuming limited resources, I'd rather they leave the dead to find the living.

5. Considering that they were training

search and rescue professionals as PR people for days, is it any wonder we have horrific scenes like this? Who can imagine how many more cases there are?
