who do you hold responsible?

I dunno. If finding someone to blame will make you feel better, try blaming all of the downed trees and power lines for hundreds of miles that are holding up the rescue people trying to get in. They have to clear the road before they can help.

Try blaming the looters and armed gangs for making people who are otherwise okay (at least alive and dry in their homes) so frightened to stay in their homes that they abandon them and cause more bottlenecks of people at the evacuation staging areas.

Try blaming the fuckheads shooting at the helicopters that are trying to get people out of there for evacuation efforts not going more quickly.

Try blaming the people that stayed even though they were told again and again to get out while they still could, days upon days in advance.

I've got an idea. How about not assigning blame at all? It's too futile. Instead, look at what we can do to keep it from happening again.
