It isn't hard to judge those people, or anyone for that matter. You do it everyday. "Those" people didn't do what they were supposed to do, which was EVACUATE! If I heard there was a CATAGORY 5 hurricane headed in my direction, and I knew I lived BELOW SEA LEVEL, I'd be on my way out of town before they gave the order. I've lived through some pretty nasty hurricanes because we did the right thing. I've even been through tidal waves, and we didn't head for the beach to watch it when the sirens sounded. I'm feel sad for them that they gambled and lost, but they need to take PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, and they aren't.

I'm also angry that they put not only their life but the life of someone else in jeapordy, and then have the balls to complain about it. Then they have the nerve to play the race card! Please!

I don't care if they take food, water, clothing, board games, small toys for the kids, but not jewelry or high end electronics like TVs and DVDs. Wonder if any of them will go back to those stores with offers to help pay or rebuild.

Something like that did happen, I've been told. Some cops came across some kids stealing a vehicle. They told them to use the vehicle to help evacuate the aged and infirm. So they did.
