Even a cop joins in the looting

And bankers too...

from http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050831/ap_on_re_us/katrina_new_orleans

Sean Jeffries of New Orleans had already been evacuated from one French Quarter hotel when he was ordered out of a second hotel Tuesday because of rising water. The 37-year-old banker — who admitted to looting some food from a nearby supermarket — said the hotel guests were told they were being taken to a convention center, but from there, they didn't know. "We're in the middle of a national tragedy," he said as he popped purloined grapes in his mouth. "But I know this city. We will be back. It may take awhile. But we will be back."

Time to start shooting them as a deterrent...

Not the bankers!!!!

What a mess. My neightbor was in New Orleans till Sunday and he said there was absolutely no panic in the French Quarter about the hurricane. He could not believe how lightly people were taking the evacuation.
