CMV: If someone's residence is under a mandatory evacuation and they have children, don't evacuate, and eventually need to be rescued, they should be charged with child endangerment. If the child dies, charge them with manslaughter.

If the government calls for a mandatory evacuation and you want to risk your own life to ride out a storm, that's your business. But when you make children ride it out with you because they are children and unable to make such decisions on their own, and their lives then become so endangered that you need to call for help, that is in incredibly dangerous situation that could and should have been avoided. 

If you stay and are fine and safe enough to not need rescue, it's not worth resources tracking you down. But when you call 911 for he!p and make it known your risked the lives of your children to stay for whatever reason, that's incredibly reckless and selfish.

The key point is ignoring a *mandatory* evacuation order with children and then turning around and needing help because you did not evacuate as told and are now in grave danger. Not talking about voluntary or recommended evacuations (or no comment from government at all).

That could very well be the case. A mandatory evacuation order is a lawful order that must be obeyed. 

*However*, no emergency personnel are going to risk their lives to drag people from their homes. 

If someone in the household dies, it's unlikely the authorities will choose to prosecute those people. 

The biggest problem with your complaint is that it assumes there's a place to go when the order comes in. That's not always true. Poor people can't just go to a hotel in the next state until the thing blows over. They might not even have a car with which to evacuate. 

In the event that the worst does happen, you want to add to that family's suffering by starting criminal proceedings? 

Mandatory evacuation orders are a CYA law. No one can say they didn't know the danger was bad when they are being forced to evacuate. They aren't in place just so we can punish people for their decisions. Mandatory evacuations imply there will be no help for them when the time comes anyway. No one is calling 911 in Texas right now, there's no point.
