in the event of emergency evacuations. Otherwise, how could I avoid being sentenced for evacuating and taking some elderly with me. I am taking about the case of the elderly that drowned in the Nursing Home.

Say I worked in a Nursing home as a Nurse and say I and several of the aids each took several of those elderly with us when the water was rising and no one was coming to help us...we would be guilty of kidnapping these folks because we tryed to take them to safety, but if we left them in the home to drown, we would be following the law and wouldn't be sue.....

Yeah, right. I still think the law needs to be revisited and revised.
