um, did you read the article? The building in question is the
superdome. It's surrounded by about six feet of contaminated water. I
think that in a situation where 20,000 people are trapped without food
or water in a place containing dead bodies on a floor awash in sewage
it's a bit specious to sit back in a comfortable chair and talk about
self-discipline.

Maybe snipers are the problem with evacuation but that is not a
problem that is solvable by the people trapped inside.
