People have become very hardened and skeptical because of the way the media has overblown so many of these events in the past and the people there simply don't believe them. The people there also think the government agencies issuing these evacuation orders are overreacting and basing their decisions on media reporting.

Exactly WHAT people are you referring to ? Insensitivity and lack of compassion runs amok
