Ramius Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Not everyone can be cool and have an m24 sniper rifle like me. 423967[/snapback] My 12 gauge will the trick quite nicely. Granted i'll hafta be a bit closer than you will
KD in CA Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Look at them they're the dreggs of society anyways.........Shoot them dead. They act like wild animals. 423959[/snapback] Exactly. Any looter should be shot on sight, period.
Reuben Gant Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Exactly. Any looter should be shot on sight, period. 423983[/snapback] Is breaking into a store to get food and water looting? If so, if I was stuck there you bet I would be looting for bottled water, non-perishable food, batteries, floatation devices, etc.

buckeyemike Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 If it is true, it's despicable. And, considering all we're hearing, it may or may not be. But help needs to be given to these people...the Red Cross is doing all it can. Some are desperate. Many are taking advantage. There's a big difference between shooting a looter with a loaf of bread and shooting a looter with a plasma TV. I shudder to say this, but we've effectively lost a major American city. That hasn't happened since the San Francisco Fire in 1906, nearly one hundred years ago. Some insurance companies will go bankrupt because of Katrina...up to $29 billion in insurable losses is what I've heard. And, should you choose to donate to a charity, stick with the Red Cross. Some fly-by-night charites may pop up, and take people's money for their own gain. THOSE are the people who should be shot on sight. Mike
sweet baboo Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Its an out of control situation where press reports seem fairly unreliable, even official comments. 423718[/snapback] there have been reports that all the guns have been looted from walmart...have groups of people running around armed to the teeth
Reuben Gant Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 How many emergency supplies are in Foot Locker? 423997[/snapback] not disputing that.

Mike 424000[/snapback] maybe we should donate to "The Black Panthers"
Thailog80 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 not disputing that. 424004[/snapback] I saw looters circling FootLocker on TV in NO today like Sharks around a distressed fish. It was appauling. Thugs looking for a new pair of "Melo's" during others absolute worst time.
BB2004 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 http://www.nola.com/newslogs/breakingtp/in...es/2005_08.html 423697[/snapback] It's about survival for a lot of these people. I've heard of worse. It's incredibly unfortunate situation. To break into hospitals, the only thing I can think of is that it is above sea-level. Other than that maybe extra food. If it anything else, that is really sad.

Those people are already f***ed. I wouldn't be surprised if you had a death toll in one month in the thousands.

nobody Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 I saw one video where they were looting a hair product store.
nobody Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 hey it WOULD be effective crowd control. Hell, why not just throw a plugged-in toaster into the water at their feet? 423949[/snapback] Just make sure you put on your hip waders first.
sweet baboo Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 The giant new Wal-Mart in the Lower Garden District was looted, after a limited distribution of supplies broke down in chaos. The entire gun collection was taken. "There are gangs of armed men in the city moving around the city," Ebbert said. http://www.nola.com/hurricane/t-p/katrina....underwater.html
Thailog80 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 I saw one video where they were looting a hair product store. 424042[/snapback] In 145mph winds Jeri-Curl is a necessity.
Tux of Borg Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 My 12 gauge will the trick quite nicely. Granted i'll hafta be a bit closer than you will 423981[/snapback] My AK-47 isn't accurate for sh--. But it will shoot cleanly though a 1/2 inch steal plate from about 20 meters.

Thugs looking for a new pair of "Melo's" during others absolute worst time. 424011[/snapback] I understand your anger and disgust and it is very apalling. What else do some people know?... I am not justifying it and I try not to let MY stereotypes get in the way. People are out there everyday, killing one another for the most seemly petty things. The sad part is that is all they know. There most be a lot of dispear and a sense of abandonment. You are talking about a huge underclass where dispear and abandonment has already invaded them to begin with. Communication loss and the wait has got to be fueling the paranoia. Instrumental leaders take charge in times like this.
