OMFG!!! Looting!!!

[IndianStig]

What the hell, there has just been a huge disaster and these motherfuckers are looting. I was fucking stupid yesterday for just readintg the picture captions. It says that these asshats actually shot an officer in the head. I just read the whole article and this is fucking unbelievable. Disasters really do bring out the worst and best of people. I mean what the hell? You would think, ahh to much anger, need to find someone with a punching bag..... . I was ignorant yesterday but I guess they were telling the truth, they aren't just finding the Pepsi, they're taking nursing home vans then jacking guns, stereos, tv's and so on!!!!! :jerkit: <to the looters.


What will happen when the refugees, if you will go, to the Astrodome?
We should house them in the Congress Center.

[Brett]

With the Astro Dome situation, and not to sound cold, cause I care about this situation alot, But they woul dnever use our dome for this, because football season is about to start, and people here will go about thier lives, the Astro Dome hasnt been used for a major sport event in over 3 years, so that makes a great spot to keep people sheltered right now. The Congress Center is used for conventions, etc.. again, life doesnt stop here for wat is going on there, and Atlanta needs people coming here to use the dome and convention center, source of income for the city.

But looters need to get stiffer fines, and be found guilty as a felony count and spend MANy years in prison, make them fear looting and they wont do it.

[AznTraitor]

they just said that Houston agreed to let NO use the Astrodome for a evacuation center......


and I swear to god, when I get to slidell and catch any looters come within 20yds of my cousins house, I'm firing at them.

[Brett]

^^ Shoot to kill

They are using 475 bus's to move the people tonight

Didnt they declare martial law in N.O?

[malfeas99]

Didnt they declare martial law in N.O?

Because Louisiana is governed by Napoleonic Law, there is no such provision for 'martial law'. However, a state of emergency was declared, which confers some similar powers to the state.

It is my opinion that anyone caught in the act of looting should be shot on sight. Period.

[IndianStig]

My History teacher maybe going down there the way he speaks. First thing this morning he's like," we should let the guard shoot them in the head, those bastards"

[Julio]

Is hard to talk when we are in good shape right now..

Once again, put yourself in there situation. At this point this peeps need to do what they have to do to survive. Sorry just the truth. Can't stand around and wait for the help to get there.

I understand scavenging for FOOD, DRY CLOTHES, and MEDICINES, WATER...


BUT! DVD PLAYERS, TV'S, DVD's, XBOX's,JEWELERY and PS2 arent needed? what are they gonna plug them into to?

[Brett]

^^ Thats when they need to be shot, I can see them looting for food, water ONLY, thats either find food and water or die, but stealing ANYTHING outide of what is needed to live till help arrives is not acceptable.

Your right. But remember, when they finally someway somehow get the hell out of the mess.. They need to come up with some $$$ quick.

I don't know, is a tough situation. Don't think any of us can't really say or criticize them. I honestly think is a hard situation.
These people are getting desperate.. I mean, if you think about it.. Why would you want to steal a TV or something of that size? Im sure after walking a few minutes shit will get heavy. But when you are desperate, sometimes we don't think.

Dont know man.. is hard to really say..

[AznTraitor]

well, I just get irratated when I hear about looters shooting at police to keep them back while their homies get what they can at electronic stores and jewelry stores, and one officer was even shot in the head, granted he will survive....he doesnt want to be there, none of them do, they are just trying to control the chaos and get everyone out...

when the first video of people looting as soon as the weather let up, it doesnt tell me that they were looting to survive, they were looting because they were thieves and are greedy as fuck.

[NzProjeKt]

NO DOUBT... I WOULD BE LOOTIN AND SCHEMING LIKE A THERE IS NO TOMMAROW...
CAUSE LITERALLY THERE MIGHT NOT BE A TOMMAROW FOR THEM IF THEY DONT SURVIVE..

Indeed, i would be looting my ass off for food. either that or just starve to death..

Exactly what I was thinking yesterday man. I was wrong as hell though. Alot of them sound like they are just lootin, who the hell needs a fucking stereo when the power is down. (understatement of the century)

[RISKYB]

this isnt a disaster, its a temporary setback and looters are scred ignorant people for the most part

[ahmonrah]

in situations like the one in N.O. survival isnt the only emotion to kick in, it's usually followed or preceeded by greed and/or revenge.

[technoteg97]

One Police officer got shot in the head by a looter..I wouldnt hurt anyone..Id take some free shit..I mean without food and water..your gunna of course die..so go take it..and eat..fuck..

[b18hb]

stealing is stealing, no matter how you cut the cake. just because a natural disaster happened does not put you above the law. sorry you're in bad shape, so are thousands more, and they're not looting and taking things. i can't justify theft, even if it is food and water.

well we know were u would be in that situation, balled up the corner hungry ass hell...waiting

[b18hb]

no, i have enough sense to live in a town thats not below sea level on the coast. and i even if i decided that i wanted to live there, i have enough sense, taking that into consideration, to get out of the area before the storm hits. i also keep my money in a bank, so i wouldn't be hurting for food, water, and shelter while i'm away from home.

again... theft is theft, and if you don't have the ability to prepare for something like this, knowing full well that if it were to happen, it'd be exactly the way it is now, then you get what's coming to you. i accept responsibility for my stupid behavior, and as sad as the situation is, i don't have an overwhelming desire to make excuses for illegal behavior because of the circumstances.

[ahmonrah]

no there is no justification for stealing something that is'nt of paramount importance....food water....but just like i said. whenever chaos occurs theft, greed and revenge and even murder will try to surface. i mean really what sense does itt make to steal electronics that are 9 x's outta 10 water damaged and your dumb ass dont have electricity anyway ?? none. but opprotunists(sp) are everywhere.

[AtifSajid]

I dont know if anyone of you all has been to NO. But that city is completely surrounded by Ghettos. Majority of the city is full with black low income housing. What else are you gonna expect - I knew that looting was going to come into play as soon as the chance was given.

Its fucked up...

[IndianStig]

If I were there I would be taking some bread and dasani, hell maybe some gatorade and immodium to with these conditions. But motherfucking PS2, imma go take that PS2 from them, bet them over the head with it, then show them the water damage.
