Looting? What looting?

While the media overplayed a lot of the Katrina problems and death toll, IMO some FReepers are in denial about how bad it was.

Just ask any Houstonian how crime went up when they got 100k refugees.

Yeah, like Houston was such a crime free city, pre-Katrina. Hello! Houston has been crime-ridden for at least 40 years now.

Didn't the media say...looting was OK...the people were hungry and thirsty. Nike tennis...is that food...or bottles of liquor...or clothes...radios, tv's, stereos, cars, DVD ..... etc etc etc........

Now exactly what does the inability of Houston to exercise law and order have to do with what the MSM said about New Orleans?
