Uh-oh -- Apples-and-Oranges Alert!.
If all of Manhattan and parts of New Jersey had sunk into the bay, and if FEMA hadn't already been in place in NYC for a disaster exercise...I suppose you'd have had a boatload of AWOL police and firefighters on 9/11, too.
Rudy had a cakewalk compared to NOLA -- localized damage (almost negligible as a percentage of land area) and uninterrupted access to the virtually-intact emergency resources and infrastructure of America's wealthiest city...not to mention a whole bunch of nearby, unaffected, well-equipped and not-at-all-poor states.
Sorry. This is like comparing WWII with the invasion of Grenada. Interesting, but pointless.

RW you are full of it. Several hundreds of policeman and firefighters went into the towers well aware of the dangers. They risked their life and in many cases lost their life to save others. Their first concern was to do the job they were hired to do regardless of personal peril and they died doing it. Your flimsy argument gives the NOLA cops way more credit than due and cheapens the heroism of the FDNY and PD.
who said anything about Rudy G?
