The spiritual journeys of others are often hard to understand. I wonder what the looters will do with their TV's? They are living in their own hell. Living without love and compassion for others and giving away your soul for a TV is punishment enough.

I thought the same thing. Okay, the food, etc. would have gone bad anyway so it's no real loss to the stores. (TV's on the 2nd floor is a different stroy I guess).

But - how about taking the food and water and moving it up to the second floor to save it. And then getting together and distributing it to folks who need it? Trying to figure out other ways to help people instead of taking advantage of the situation?

One thing I would say is that I wouldn't lump someone who "loots" food in the same category with someone who loots home electronics. I'm not faulting anyone who's after the basics of life under these circumstances - particularly if those goods are otherwise going to find their way to the landfill.
