Were There Any Injuries, Heart Attacks Or Deaths Related To The False Alarm Alert In Hawaii?.....

[global1]

I see clips of people running. I've heard accounts as to how people dealt with the alert. I was thinking in the chaos - that some people sustained injuries; had heart attacks or maybe even died.

I'm sitting here in the Chicago Area and if we had a similar alert - where does one go or take shelter from a nuclear attack? Anybody know? Seriously - (aside from the wise guy answers of putting your head between your legs and kissing your ass goodbye)

Really - with the alert they received in Hawaii - what did they expect people to do?

1. Not to mention all those things that people said or did...

...on the assumption that the world was ending that day.

Ooops.

2. Imagine having your family members in different places when the notice came out.

Having to pick/choose which family members to run to has to be excruciating.

In my case, I could only go to the center of my basement and hope for some kind of miracle. I would have plenty of food to live on for weeks, but would you want to? What would be facing us outside? What would the future bring?

I'd probably die of a stroke or heart attack knowing that two assholes caused all this misery with their mouths and neither was close enough to strangle.

3. Some of us are old enough to remember when there were actual "fallout shelters"...

in major US cities, but they gave up on that idea for the general population.

As to Chicago:

4. Wonder if fall out shelters would even save anyone in the event of a direct strike.

Even if they did, I would not want to live in post apocalyptic America.

5. Surprised no one commtted suicide ...

... rather than die in a nuclear attack.
