Quote These "citizens" of New Orleans include a very high percentage of people who stayed behind specifically to loot jewelry stores and get rich quick, no different than the phoney contractors who will be showing up next month to do the same.
Total BS. A VERY high percentage? Come on. Back that up with some real facts. You are just spouting off. LARGE numbers of people did not stay behind to loot. A HANDFULL of people are doing all of this. Thousands of people are NOT looting. You could prob count them more like DOZENS of people are looting.
If you are going to make statements like that then you need to have something to back up the comments.
People can post anything they want...pure opinion on your part.
I agree, the majority without means went to the dome. The had no nefarious plans.
I will bet you the family farm that the amount of looters numbers far more than your "dozens". I say it will be in the hundreds, possibly thousands, before this is over.
I can also tell you that there are huge numbers of phoney contractors who have been waiting around all over the country since the hurricane season of last year in Florida to jump on the next natural disaster.
And, I can tell you that as the hurricane approached New Orleans, many future looters went into planning mode about how to avoid the evacuation and how to be set up to loot jewelry stores once the hurricane hit.
This is an awful side of life today, but this is the truth.
