I just saw the news, and a couple black chick cops were looting too, pushing around a shopping cart with a whole bunch of shit in it, talking, pointing deciding what to take. Protect and serve, but they dont say who foo!
So yeah, fuck people. Bloody pop tarts are about as honest as a reusable maxi pad.
But wait...Id loot, cause I mean no way my house painting business would be running...all my tools would be washed away in my van and all that. So I would probably need anyhting I could get my hands on, I say honestly, I would loot, being a business owner there is no welfare/unemployment, so I would need to steal to get new tools to work again.
These people are FUCKED. I mean anyone who lives as an adult out there knows that without a few weeks of work, mayb e months no small business can run, people get hungry, mortgages catch up with you. Everything adds up.
So yes I would steal, I owe to much to to many to just let my business die in a swamp and say "well I tried".
thank you my thoughts exactely.. these people may have had a life that none of us can imagine and they finally found a way to make their family happy although wrong ,........ thats all they got man.... PEaceQuote:

BEYOND F*CKED UP-
Unless you've been living in a cave for the last week or so, I'm sure most of you know about Hurricane Katrina and the damage its caused in New Orleans and 3 other states. If you have read about it than I'm sure there's at least a small chance that you know about the looting thats been going on as well.
I have a question for you; if your town is about to be hit by a class five hurricane (the hightest possible class of hurricane), what do you loot? Is it food and water? Maybe an inflatable raft to use when the floods come? Be honest, maybe its that 40" tv you've always wanted.
Guess what the looters went for first...it wasn't any of those things.
Guns and drugs.
No, I'm not kidding. Gun stores and pharmacies were hit harder by looting than any other business. Thats scary. Thats VERY scary. Does anyone else get why thats scary? Could somebody please explain how anyone could possibly think "Oh, no! A hurricane! My entire family's survival is at stake! I better get some guns and some viagra!" It doesn't make sense to me.
I'd loot survival gear or food and water before I'd ever loot guns. Hell, I'd loot tobacco stores and I DON'T EVEN SMOKE! Think about it, C5 hurricanes are accompanied by winds that are strong enough to drive straw through a plank of wood six inches thick! You and I are a lot softer than a six inch plank of wood, whats to stop that straw from going right through your skull? What if its not straw at all but a train car blowing your way?! IS A GUN GOING TO COME IN HANDY THEN, YOU MORONS?! What are you going to do, idiot? Shoot the wind?! And are drugs really that much better?! It'll take a lot of tylenol to make you whole again after your house caves in on you!
Maybe no one else understands why this freaks me out, I don't care. These people need to get their priorities straight, can't anyone else smell a scary and paranoid climate here?! I know its not every single person there, but the fact that such a massive amount of people consider guns and drugs their top priority is BEYOND f*cked up. Its scary.
I'd loot drugs and guns. Guns for protection from other looters and drugs to kill the pain when i get shot in the ass.
Actually, I'd prolly just uhh get out of dodge, but if i was stuck there... Drugs, guns, a boat, and food+water sound about right.
Who's to say what's who's now? What I mean is that with the homeless situation as it is, and this idiotic policy of "Shoot to KILL", how on Earth are these people going to have stability in the forseeable future?
Homes Wiped Out!, Businesses Ruined!, Lives Surrendered and the only hope is that Aid is on it's way!..The bare essentials....Food and Water!
What is the solution?, When will they see improvements?, How long will the suffering continue?
The State of New Orleans, if I'm not mistaken, is larger than Britain!...Imagine that fellow Brits, Everything From Lands End to John O'Groats, Leeds to Manchester, London to Cardiff....Wiped off the map, Economy in tatters, along with all your LIFES WORK!
Please give a moment of your thoughts/condolences to the people mixed up in this melay! I'm not usually one to get stuck in, But Drastic Times call for Drastic Measures!
Peace ;)
I can't watch the news anymore. I know it's reality but it seemed so much better when you didn't see it, but seen it on a movie instead. Now that it's the real deal, the goverment didn't know how to react to it. Thank god for those who helped out.
The good people who comforted people when they had nothing else.As for the looting, I don't blame them anymore, their being fucked over by the goverment when Americans should be helped, but oh hey our troops are fighting in iraq.Go figure.
