Some windows in most of the stores, were blown out by the storm, so few people had to break into those shops. If it were me, I would want to buy the food and drink. Being unable to do so, I would take it and pay them later, rather than go days or perhaps weeks without it.

Looters taking other items like TV's, DVD's and jewelry should be SHOT.

I never said NO is one of the nicest of cities. I agreed with you that it is a cesspool. I said even if this had happened in the nicest of cities, people would still need to eat and drink.

I understand what you are saying, and I suspect you understand what I am saying. Lets leave it at that my friend. I do not think we can meet in the middle, but I know that if we meet, it will be over a cup of coffee and as friends.

Blessings!
