The police have no communications, no working patrol cars, not enough boats. They can't function either. You think they even give a fuck about a bunch of looters when they have probably lost everything too and have families to worry about. I bet half the cops just said fuck this and split town.

This is like a nuclear attack. There is nothing you can do. The entire civil infrastructure has collasped. There is no government when shit like this happens. You are on your own. Its called Anarchy.
