    No on both counts and I understand that you cant just drive a lil vaccum mobile down the road. But that is my point. The state of Georgia and the city of Atlanta have no response prepared in case of something like this.It makes me wonder what else they aren't prepared for. I'm willing to bet that in the morning the streets still look the way they do in that area.

    nothing. but u are in fact a honkey, right??
    1.) That's my point the aren't doing their job.
    2.) Your right in most cases even when it comes down to traffic flow during major events when they shut off all the traffic lights and direct traffic themselves they do more harm than good. Have you ever gone down to that area to go to a major event say 2 hours before when all the lights are still on? Easy as **** to get to where you need to go and traffic is heavy. Then 30 minutes before traffic isn't as bad but cops are directing traffic and the ****s terrible
    3.) I'm white again so what?

    So to boil down your argument. We shouldn't call in clean up crews because its the middle of the night(even though its a major city there are major events going on all during the day in that area including the St. patricks day parade).The cops should be blocking off the roads yet they have deemed it safe to be on and there are people walking around inside and out around those buildings yet the APD has blocked most on ramps into the city because it's so hazordous. So what exactly should they be doing right now. Waste time money when they could be cleaning up the area to at least make it safe for cars to drive around there.

    St. Patrick Day's parade was cancelled, so was the Home Show...... they didn't clean up quick because of other rounds of storms approaching. Just because the radar shows 'clear' doesn't mean that there wasn't any weather approaching....

    Cops don't clean up areas. They are there to control the crowds, direct traffic and do cop stuff..... and they did block off several roads leading to the CNN center........i did see a bulldozer crew in the early morning though.... i've been watching the sh*t the whole night... lol
    I got free clear tails with my ride.....

    I was thinking the same thing when I watched the Live press conference at 1:30 and the Mayor said "We do not know for certain what caused the damage." While the B-roll was playing I was looking for clues like a giant footprint haha

    i was working on courtland/ralph mcgill and was standing outside when it went from rain to nothing at all...just like that, being raised in an area that had tornadoes, i looked around went back inside, then noticed signs acting crazy, then people calling and running into the lobby panicky.
