One of the first looting stories was about the Walmart. Tuesday NO Police opened the Walmart so that people could get food and stuff. Well, once inside, the stuff turned into computers and jewelry. The police said they were "overwhelmed" and did not want to start a riot and panic by trying to stop the perps, they also said there were too many of "them".
Then the police started 'shopping' themselves. In another thread there was a picture of officers walking out of the Walmart looking over the DVDs/CDs they had just taken. Many people in the article reported seeing the cops "join in".
