This article depresses me. WTF is wrong with people? I can understand "looting" for supplies...food, water, clothing. You're in a desparate situation and you've got nothing coming to you so you have to fend for yourself. But TVs and guns?? WTF do you need them for? And then shooting at military helicopters that are trying to -HELP- you? This isn't the time to go around stealing things and shoot at random people/objects. You're contributing to the problem, not helping! It's like these people think that since they're in a disaster zone, that's grounds for them to run amok and disregard any civility, laws and common sense. It's not... This would be a time to hold even firmer to them, to uphold the ideals of cooperation and altruism because that's what's going to end up getting everyone thru it.
I'm waiting to hear stories about charity scams...*sigh* Just wait, it'll happen.
