So what happens if a real disaster/crisis shows up?
RE: So what happens if a real disaster/crisis shows up?

First, I in no way intend to defend Limbaugh's assinine behavior, speech, or general position. It is entirely possible (though unlikely) that there could be prosecution for whatever combination of legalese that could be brought to bear.

Second, I'm no lawyer, so apart from a few Google search results that in general support it being theoretically an offense (depending on the state's position of mandatory evacuation), my opinion is that there would be little chance of him being prosecuted by a state or municipal court (just as I'd be happy to hear he is). It's probably marginally more likely for civil suits to be brought, but even those would be tenuous. Just a guess.
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle
"Being told to be 'open minded' about something is usually a code for 'you're not going to like this, but I want to subject you to it anyway'. Conversely, being told that you are 'closed-minded' is generally a means of asserting that 'I don't like the fact that you're proving me wrong, so I will pretend that your failure to agree with my argument is a philosophical deficiency'." - RationalWiki
