What bothers me, is why does it matter, if the remaining poor souls stuck in New Orleans loot a few stores, for food, or supplies, it is not like anyone is there to sell it to them. I think Walmart can take the strain of the looting of one store.

That's why you see images of people stealing booze, TVs, and clothes? They're not robbing a grocery store because they're hungry, they're looting because they're seeing an opportunity to steal and get away with it. It does matter. Maybe you could take the strain of loosing a few hundred dollars, should I steal it from you?

Saw a quote from a looter today - paraphrased, this is their chance to strike back at society for oppressing them.
