So there are gangs of armed men roaming New Orleans looting...
 

I'm glad they'll be getting the food and clothes they need to survive. :1orglaugh

How long before the national guard shows up to start picking these idiots off?

Redefining the term "organized crime".

I'd be looting too. Only a jerk would deny the basic human instinct to get as much stuff as possible for free.

Oh, and on another note:

Let's hope that while they are eating the raw meat they steal from gorcery stores, they get eaten by sharks and gators. Not to mention snakes.

Gee, you take a bunch of really poor people who all the sudden have no food, shelter, water or chance of getting much of it any time soon, and you wonder why they're looting?

If the fed would get some troops into the area to manage the situation, it would clear up in a heart beat.

Funny you mentioned that! Because of the shooting already done, it's a very, very, very bad idea to get blood in that water. There are predators from the salt water and fresh water habitats already loose and once they smell blood it's fuck all crazy.

What's the best way to prepare Nike's? Fried or grilled?

No man, those guys with the Nike's are gonna trade them for food. (As stated in another thread) :1orglaugh

It's like a virus, once they start looting for things they need, then they get all caught up in the thrill of it and start looting for whatever they can get...

If I was a cop there, and I saw people taking things they need to survive (food, clothing, water) I'd leave them be.

the ones taking the other shit, fuck em... great time for target practice

Until they shoot you in the face. The cops there now have a very bad situation on their hands. They are not equipped for this shit. If they go around shooting looters it will cause problems that are a lot worse. They are waiting on reinforcements and focusing on saving as many people as they can for the time being.

I agree - These people must be just about giving up hope I would think. What should they do? They are fucked.

They see a Rolex in a shop window and think that is enough to get them out of the nightmare, it may even save thier life.

At least if the Guard turn up it may give them some hope that someone is doing something and they dont have to do this just to survive.

If you think that's what they have on their mind you are sadly mistaken.

When will the leo dicaprio movie the gangs of New Orleans be comming out?

they dont have any!! they are all over in the sand fighting people that dont need us there.

haha they're all in iraq :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

This police officer is stealing DVDs so his children have movies to watch while the local rental stores are closed over the next couple weeks. I wish my father was that thoughtful.

Interesting

Maybe it's a random 2257 inspection. That obviously takes priority over this silly flooding stuff.

ignorant bastard

it was the best town in the south before the flood

and always will be

I hope looters have stocked enough supply before full police force comes.

Yeah. Looting sucks. I also think these people should have been smart and left the area. Know there either dead or stranded. Fucking idiots.

I can't agree or disagree, I haven't been to enough other towns down south - but from my experience, Canal Street is a hole. Bourbon Street is the height of tackiness and if you walk 2 streets either side of it you'll feel like you're in Compton.

I was staying in a hotel on Canal during the SEO conference a few months back. Everyone complained at how terrible it was. They won't be back (at least not that hotel).

But, to the point, I had a wonderful view of an abandoned office building across the street (it was for sale - do I hear $50 epass?) and beside that another lower building was being demolished. The street is full of stores and was in bad need of a cleaning.

On top of that everyone warned us not to walk back to the hotel late at night. We did anyway and it wasn't a big deal - but if this is the main tourist area and supposed to be the "face" of the city, it's not very promising.

All the troops are in Iraq.

Did these people fail to evacuate? Was the evacuation order mandated by law? Did they break the law early on by not evacuating?

Now, they are breaking the law again by looting?

What amount of personal responsibility do you think these people should bear?

When they disregard the law by refusing to evacuate, do they assume ANY responsibility for subsequent events?
