Yeah, and how is that calling looting "honorable?" You can spare me your own blusterings, because you're just making up intentions that aren't there. I was referring to those who were saying that looting was looting and ergo wrong under every circumstance. I believe that to be a stupid and insensitive generalization, as I think looting essential supplies isn't wrong in extreme circumstances. That doesn't mean it's honorable or dishonorable, it's just a fact of survival at that point.

Hell you even denied that they were looting things other than food.

No, I said the footage I had seen on CNN at that point was all of people taking essential supplies--meaning that I didn't see the looting of luxuries as widespread. That was 4 days ago, and the more pernicious looting didn't start becoming a real problem until later. So I was right on that, too.

Care to make it 0 for 3 with another wrong claim, DD?

Only good and decent people with the best of intentions should be allowed to loot and pillage. The others are just causing trouble and giving looting a bad name.

Deja vu. Haven't I seen that picture somewhere before?

[Lonestar]

Dunno. I kinda just hopped into this.

Is it some kind of challenge to see how many times the same thing can be posted?

USA today reported some guy was using his truck to pick up people in neighbordhoods. Then some thugs carjacked it at knifepoint, presumably to use it for looting.


Id say thats a BAD thing. Can we agree?

That woman definetly looks Hispanic to me.

Of course, don't let that get in the way of your trolling.

Yeah I pointed that out earlier, and also inquired as to the role of the Chinese in all of this.

And why aren't they showing any pictures of Icelanders finding groceries.
