how dare you refer to anyone as a “looter”?

they are merely seizing what belongs to them as “the people”

[sarcasm, but someone actually wrote nearly those exact words on Twitter last night -— then expressed deep shame for America that anyone here could call anyone at all a “looter”]

Those shirts probably ended up at the Goodwill, because nobody wanted to buy them.

They next thing they and Obama will be looting is your retirement plan. They are already talking about a form of an American annuity because it will be much safer.

Argentina did this last year. They stole all the private pension fo rthe ‘good of the country.”

Shame on you! First off, there’s no indication he’s looting. Second, how can you possibly look at those pictures and be most moved by someone’s T-shirt. You’ve disgraced FR.

Here is the caption to the picture

No dedicated Obama supporter is willing to let good crisis go to waste.

I might point out that the so called ‘looter’ guy doesn’t seem to be standing inside a store looting anything.

Besides, what else are these people supposed to do to survive?

Are there any grocery stores still standing? Where one can ‘check out’ and pay properly for food?

It is easier to criticize, than it is to walk a mile in their shoes.

(and I’m not directing that at you, Jet)

I agree with you. No sign whatsoever that person is looting.

guess you have trouble with reading comprehension, because the LA Times photo caption asserted that the people in the photo were looting a store......

you’ll have to take it up with the photographer or whoever supplied that caption for the LA Times
