Police Are Looters Too

Sad but true. The only good thing about this (if you can say that) is what it shows us about the true nature of so many people.

The idiots at crooks and liars consistently piss me off. Virtually every single commenter has said, "they're not looting, they're just disadvantaged and taking needed supplies!" (like TVs?) And there have already been a dozen "I hate Wal-Mart! They deserve it!" comments...

When you have already stripped a city of its morality, can you really be surprised when the city is under duress that the full ugliness that immorality and corruption is, is brought to the surface. Immorality breeds evil, good and plentiful times are effective at masking that fact, but put that immoral person or society in a pinch and all the ugliness is revealed. Just a thought.

I wonder what the msnbc reporter took after the cameras were turned off.

I read all of the stories of the displaced people and wonder "what would I do in this situation?" Would I be an individual who is running into stores and taking things that do not belong to me and the answer is, if it ment feeding and clothing my kid's ABSOLUTELY. I was on a website last night looking for a missing loved one and came across a comment posted that really upset me. On a website where people had posted comments desperately looking for loved ones there was a posting from a woman who questioned the motives of individuals who stayed in the area not taking in consideration that some may have stayed because of illness,lack of funds, or whatever reason they may have had. Whatever the decision it was theirs to make.She proceeded to make racist comments that were just not appropriate. I am a white woman who grew up in a place were I saw enough racism for a lifetime, and I was deeply offended and hurt that in this day and age during such a disaster as this,RACISM is still present in our life. The website was nola.com and the woman who was so opinionated is nowhere near the devastation. It's just sad. God bless everyone there. Be safe and respectful and just know that people do want to help and support those who need it.

I was just thinking to myself about Bush being a "man of God", is he thinking that Katrina is payback from God for "shock and awe"-ing Baghdad? Just think, Iraq was probably the same as New Orleans when we bombed it right?
