        Not time for Monday morning quarterbacking. Focus on the crisis at hand, keeping people safe, warm and fed. #ActFirstReviewLater

        The Mayor of Houston could've relocated/seniors/ disabled ahead of the storm. More Nat'l guard stationed in areas quick to flood.

        The mayor made the right call on this. Anyone who remembers (or has heard the horror stories) the last evacuation knows that.

        He keeps talking about this as an all-or-nothing option. Why in the world were the elderly/vulnerable/medical patients not relocated?

        In Katrina, elderly were 15% of population, but 60% of deaths. My heart breaks thinking of elderly sitting waist-deep in water
