Hey, just like in Japan. Oh, wait ...
"Looters carry off goods from stores along Canal St. in New Orleans, La.,
in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2005."

Low criminals that would steal from these people who lost family mambers and homes should be shot on sight...
Rubberneckers make me want to vomit...a woman was killed by a weak F-1 tornado here in New Hampshire a few years ago, and I was astounded by the number of people lining the main highway to gawk at the houses that had been destroyed.
Did you have any damage Nana?
Looters should be shot on sight. That’s the way it used to be. The country is too “civilized” for that now. Of course, this type of “civilized” just encourages looters, so it is actually very uncivilized...
Stories like this make me ill. A large segment of our society has either lost or never had the gift of compassion for another person. It is not like that everywhere. Remember how shocked the American media were to find no looting going on in Japan after those tragedies?
I pray for the Gentrys and all of my fellow Americans devastated by these storms.
No not a branch was bent
Next to me juge trees were uprooted
Thje first one hit near me about 9 AM Wednesday and I lost my power...
I spent Wednesday night in town at my daughters house they lost power during the big on at 7 PM
then there were 3 or 4 more...little sleep all night..
My daughters house wasnt damaged but big trees and branches fell into the yard..
I didnt know what to expect when I went back to my own house Thursday morning...
Trees were half blocking the road out of town
It was sureal to walked through my property after passing damagedf homes and not find even a twig on the ground or bent in the trees...
Until an hour or so ago I still didnt have power...
but now I have...
Im using my own computer again now ...
Thursday and Friday nights I camped out here in my own house...
Several of my neighbors have not come home at night so for about 6-8 haouses around me only my house was occupied...
some of them are my age and went into town to children or other family members for Wednesday night and stayed
We knew for hours prior that some big ones were coming...
Now that we have power on again they should be back...
Bout time he showed up...
I was about to get up on my roof and paint
HELP, OBAMA !!!
some typical looters
He's in the second wave...
People want to see. We live in such an artificial world, I think it’s good sometimes for people to see reality.
Rubbernecking in a way that causes distress or danger (for instance, people slowing down to look at an accident) is a different matter.
I cannot describe the disgust and loathing I felt for those people.
After the Xenia Tornado in 1974, I slept in my wrecked house with a shotgun beside me for over a week.
Looters are the scum of the earth and should be shot on sight.
I also find it interesting that after the Japanese earthquake there were no reports of looting. Now after this looting is widespread.
“We’re just looking Looting,” the woman replied.
The difference between cultures teaching their kids "you don't touch what you don't own"....and those who encourage a society with an entitlement mentality....
Goddamn Amish, will they stop at nothing?
Those pesky “Rogue Amish”, no doubt.
