I thought about this for a bit, mostly after the uproar over the "whites find/blacks loot" controversy...

Think about what is happening down there... People are homeless, lots of devastation, no business or commerce is in sight. What can you possibly do? Leave a dollar on the counter when you take something?

Take what you need... now here's where the rub starts:

Food and water and some other necessities should be legal to take IN FAIR AMOUNTS! No excessive stockpiling, that's not necessary, it's piggish! These things are going to rot or be unusable anyway... The stores should be covered by insurance, so thier loss will not be softened by being able to clean up some cans of string beans. PS, this "finding" must only be restricted to the hardest hit areas. A guy in New Jersey can't use this argument...

Stereos, DVD's, TV's, cars and things like this? You take them you will be shot! It's a done deal, these things are not necessary to you living, especially the electric stuff, what are you gonna plug it into? This is stealing and you should be eradicated...

Some other random thoughts:

Hospitals should be very alert, break-ins for drugs may become a problem...

Prisoners in jails are going to try to escape

Republicans did not cause the hurricane...

God did not bring justice down on the immoral, there is no god...

Jews did not cause the hurricane...

Don't blame the army corp of engineers for not making the levee category 5 proof, it was not soley thier decision, and as always it's a game of odds. Why didn't these people leave at the first raindrop? Why didn't they have more insurance? Why didn't they buy a motor home? Why didn't they keep a boat in the garage? and supplies? Everything is a game of odds, remember that, you can not place blame because NOTHING is infallible...

These things will always happen, we cannot stop them...
