Analysts and observers said China's ability to move hundreds of thousands of people out of harm's way speaks to the country's exceptional ability to mobilize resources and people to deal with disasters.

Because they don't ask you to leave, they order you to leave at gunpoint. Dictatorships are always more efficient than sloppy old democracies.

"tens of thousands of soldiers and local police are deployed throughout cities to enforce evacuations and maintain order."
I apologize to you for Katrina because I oppose martial law under most situations. Perhaps under Hillary...

Guns and bayonets will quickly move an unarmed populus. If you have a lot of time I can tell you all about the Chinese communists. :mad:

So FEMA should buy bayonetts for the hurricane season.

Well, why wait for Hillary? It is already in vogue in the US. Were you insuniating that Hillary will be the first president to use it? You can see forced evacuations were carried out while under herr bush's rule.

Thousands of New Orleanians were evacuated at gun point even from unflooded areas AFTER Katrina flooded the city.

"New Orleans police say that just about everyone who is willing to leave the city has done so. And now, getting ready to carry out forced evacuations. The police superintendent says the officers will use the minimum amount of force necessary."

Make a note at some point to make worthy a note of all the lives living under tyranny there as well.

How fitting you ask "how come these guys do it right?" as a naive child in the backseat of a car would ask, only worse. You bring it up in a feeble attempt to point yet another accusatory finger. Your prejudice has become vile.

We did not have enough military stateside to effectively enforse martial law. They are all in Iraq. Maybe Hillary will get our military and national guard back to bossing around Americans like they used to.

You may want to reread your own quoted articles. President Bush had nothing to do with the evacuations in New Orleans.

As a twist on an old quote..."It was the police stupid"

It was in reference to Kenwood's plug about Hillary...

However, as much I hate the cops using force to evacuate, during those circumstances it perhaps was the right thing to do. Atleast, during those chaotic hours I felt that way.

Interesting example 46…

I suppose this approach in China was also "effective" with crowd control if you want to get technical…

Action was only reserved to how they dealt with a weather disaster: by cooperation.

This is the typical 'ends justifying the means' response.

[Tom]

Cooperation is the key. Too bad the local and state democrats failed to do that when bush told them to evacuate several days before it hit. Had School-Bus Ray Nagin put the welfare of the people ahead of keeping the casinos open, and the governor had not been drunk or asleep, many more would have gotten out of there. A crying shame.

Wow you admire these lunatics and you think our army misguides young minds.

Go visit the Chinese army and give us a report on whether THEY do it right.

Cooperation. Cooperation.....How many times does one have to repeat that aspect regarding this situation before all six brain cells comprehend it?

[Tom]

Like the Jews cooperated with Hitler, huh?

How about Katrina - what cooperaation was needed - they knew a big storm was coming, the chose to ignore it until too late, and to be totally unprepared. Where does the Federal gov't fit into that? The roads out of town were all that was needed. And leadership, something Chocolate town has never had. People who did not leave get no sympathy from me - ignorance is what did them in, not a hurricane. Those who wanted to leave and were let donw by School Bus Naygin and the happy governor should be suing them in court.

Katrina is not a national problem, never was, and it certainly was never, nor is now, any problem for me, or even any concern of mine.
