F*CK...They aren't looting TV's
the are looting FOOD.....get over it. At a time like this, it should one for all and all for one
quote......
As Sen. Mary Landrieu (news, bio, voting record) flew over the area by helicopter, a group of people smashed a window at a convenience store and jumped in.

At a drug store in the French Quarter, people were running out with grocery baskets and coolers full of soft drinks, chips and diapers. One looter shot and wounded a fellow looter, who was taken to a hospital and survived.

end quote......

5. Incidents like that will make the rest of the country
less willing to help out with donations, volunteering.

Prayers to the cop.

6. Well if the local, state and federal governments were prepared looting
would not only not be necessary it wouldn't happen at all. Every thing being done here is being done after the fact.

8. The looting is a moot point now. Most of those
people will be dead soon.
