Anyone that was ordered to evac and didn't, and are lucky enough to be rescued, should pay for fuel, time and services of the rescue team.

leave their arses there and let them die...
takes more idiots out of the gene pool.
Dont waste time and money rescuing stupid people.....

They were told to evacuate...and if you stay....you suffer the consequences....stupid idiots.....
Do you think before you speak?

There was a coordinated plan for evacuations. They told Houston residents to stay hunkered down until this afternoon to let Galveston residents get off the island.

Strength of this storm don't matter, this is going to be a devstating tragedy.

They told us every storm that hit in Florida "If you're under a mandatory evacuation and you stay behind, you are on your own."

It is 1 mile per hour less than a cat #3 storm and could get stronger and those that stay are to write their social security number on their arm Fox is reporting.

I just saw that. It was one of the government officials. Guess they want to make the body ID easier.

Ya know, you always have stupid people doing stupid things but they've estimated that 90,000 people have decided to stay and ride it out.

FOXNews.com - Citing Faith and Fate, Some Choose to Ride Out Ike - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News

That's a LOT of stupid.

There was something about oil and gas could double or triple within the next week or two. I didn't catch exactly what they said.... anyone listening that could repeat it?

Also, they have the first death - a man was cutting down a tree preparing for the storm and it fell and hit his 10 year old boy killing him.
