I think the way the government has failed them (by not providing public transportation to get out of NO to those who had no other means, by not making sure the city of NO could withstand a hurriccane that was over due, by allowing the airports to be closed while it was still safe to fly out, by not being prepared with national guard/marines to combat looting, etc) that these people acted in an expectable manner. What would you do if there was no law and the streets were empty? It's terrible to think of the murders and rapes that were going on, but the looting, come one.. black/white/asian/latino there's people in every communitty who would love to go ape shit in a mall given the chance.

Don't blame them, blame the huge difference between the "haves " and "have nots"
