Police in New Orleans will be issuing a stark warning to residents who fail to flee the onrush of Hurricane Gustav: Get out now or you are on your own.
Police with bullhorns plan to go from street to street to tell citizens that there will be no shelter of last resort and the doors to the Superdome will be locked.

I'm not sure how to feel about this one.
I can understand that there comes to a point where you are putting others at risk if you do not evacuate like you have been asked, but where do you draw the line?
What if there are people who genuinely have'nt heard the warnings or did not realise they were as bad as predicted? Do you just leave them for being ignorant?
Emergency services have to respond to anyone who needs help. Many of those times are for people who really do not deserve it, whether because of thier own stupidity or other reasons, however they still have to be rescued.

They have legs, don't they? And those that can't due to disability I am sure will be taken care of.
