Looting In New Orleans

[LAW]

How do you think the looting situation should be handled? I think it is just horriable that these people take this opportunity to empty out the stores of hard working people and take what ever they want. I heard Wall Mart was completely emptied. It looks like the cops have no control over it.

[SwoleCat]

I think they should be shot when they are caught doing it.

That's scandalous to the 9999999999999th degree.

~SC~

[mass junkie]

Kind of surprised that they havent declared martial law down there yet...


Im positive it'll happen though..

[needmorestrength]

Pretty disgusting when you think about it!

[majorpecs]

Def doesn't make me proud to be an American when i see shit like that..omg, some people are JACKED in the head!!! Martial law is def going to be declared, it's rampant right now and needs to be controlled.

[IBdmfkr]

If people are freely looting, who's to stop someone from laying a smack down on there asses? Kinda hard to get caught for taking a few out when there are hundreds dead already. Sad.

[Zapp]

Those people are scuz, scum, bottom of the freakin barrel maggets. It's people like that (want something for nothing) that is bringing this country down. They ought to shoot everyone of 'em.

[SwoleCat]

Martial Law has been declared.

Kind of sad.

If they are taking food and such let em be but if they are running down the street with a tv beat the hell outta of em and make em an example.

[LAW]

SC that's the horriable thing. Martial Law was declared and these people still get away with stealing sneakers, TV's and shit not necessary for survival. I would understand if they were desperately hungry. Horriable!

[IBdmfkr]

I'd be lookin for pharmacies and a steak house.

[BlInDsIdE]

absolutely horrible whats going on down there, really makes you ashamed of how some of our fellow americans are acting during this disaster

Oh no! How will walmart survive? Looks like they may go under now.
I know, it's the little people that get hurt, with the small bussinesses.
But I could care less about walmart though. Cry me a river, justin timberlake.
Still, it makes me sick too.

[juicy_brucy]

I'd hit up the vet clinic.

good call

[Jdawg50]

Two words.... Scum Bags

Sorry I totally disagree.... Find another way, there are other ways to get things they need than stealing it from other people. The red cross is down there, the national guard, and the marines. Its only been 2 days.... They should have maybe thought about the fact that they would need a few days worth of food to survive... its not like they wernt told. They need to find one of the various places distributing this stuff. All the looters should be put in jail.

[1819]

i also think its funny that the people with no flood insurance are torching their homes. i know they've tried that before and the insurance co. rules the fire is flood related so in the end they get nothing.

[IBdmfkr]

wonder if 24hr fitness is still open.

[c_ville]

I would be all over the diamond district ... and then I would hit the graveyard.

[gymnutt]

It's a shame when people need most to pull together as a community some choose to infuse fear and mistrust in their own backyards. I hope the rescue efforts are successful. From what I have seen and heard things do not look good.

[WildCh1ld]

God bless the good people and let the bad ones get what they deserve.

THey have but it's kinda hard to stop them when you have the cops themselfs doing it. The reporters even have the cops on tape looting walmarts.

Now if ppl are doing it for food and water I don't see a problem but taking tv's and vcr's is just downright wrong.

[Gorgoroth_]

Insurance will cover the crap stolen from wal-mart ... and looters are suppose to be shot on sight during any hurricane... thats just standard practice, however, you never hear about that happening because no cop in his right mind is going to be patrolling a city during a hurricane .... and I am pretty sure if you lost everything you owned.. and you saw a free way to get some stuff back.. you'd take the opportunity.

[majorpecs]

Now that is FUKED up!

yea i saw the looters on tv and i agree...i mean most of these people lost everything they had..i saw a woman with just a cart full of childrens clothes and diapers and such and it honestly broke my heart and i can totally relate...

but those people who are out there just taking luxury items for the hell of it is f*cking rediculous and sad

[Duck of Death]

......OK, now I wanna hear from the grasseaters on the board who bleat that there is no earthly reason for private citizens to own firearms.
Is there another way for small business owners and homeowners who are in danger of being looted/robbed to defend that which they worked for and those they love??
During the famous L.A./Rodney King riots, the only small business owners who were not looted were the Koreans, who sat on the rooftops of their stores with high-powered rifles. Looks like they understand the importance of the second amendment!

i agree with having firearms 100%. i myself carry. not in this situation though. everything down there is a total loss. there is nothing to defend. people do not need to be shooting eachother cause someone stole a t.v.

[IBdmfkr]

Stealing is stealing, they must be punished!

[1819]

to an extent you are correct. much more important things to worry about. they dont even know where to put people. where would they even put a criminal? no jail. its under water.

[IBdmfkr]

They could put them in the mississipi.

[1819]

They could put them in the mississipi.

they should arrest the saints. they're the real crime in new orleans.

[Heracles74]

Now that's funny.

[BUBBA74]

We'll last year when we were hit with three storms back to back people went crazy. We didnt have no where near the damage they have over in LA right now and we had people fighting over ice, gas, water and everything else. We were without power for days at a time and you should have seen how crazy it made people. People stealing generators became and big problem and we chained ours to a rail on the back pourch. Another thing that was getting ripped off a bunch was plywood people would just go out and tear it off someone else's house. Situations like that really bring out the every man for himself mentality.

[CRUISECONTROL]

I've heard one cop got shot in the head by a looter

These people are stupid what are they going to do with the stuff they are stealing.......

Fukers!!!!!!

i always thought looting would be fun. something i've been wanting to do for a long time since i was watching la riots on tv, but i couldn't actually do it because of the guilt factor. i have a feeling if i did i would be found pass out in a liquor store and then taken to jail drunk and that would be no fun.

[Lifter2005]

Not trying to sound racist but.......................
Ive been watching the news footage about the looting non stop for 4-5 hours and I have not seen ONE caucasian male or female looting. All the lootlers are blacks of all ages. Hmmmm

[IBdmfkr]

haha, I noticed that too, but then again it might just be the media, they seem to like to depict certain people.
