What I see are a bunch of people out in chest high water barely able to move who might have a box of milk or something.
The place (New Orleans city) is flooded!
you must have missed the pics from the walmart where people were pulling up with extended bed pickup trucks, pulling trailers and loading them 10 feet high with loot.

When thugs loot a nursing home, threaten hospitals and begin carjackings it is go time. Time to knock some heads and show them who their daddy is.
You haven't seen film from INSIDE Winn-Dixie, etc - BTW they're dry - of people w/2 shopping carts of stuff, and taking entire RACKS filled w/things? Never mind the giant orange floating platic bins - big enough for 3 curbside trash cans? (BTW, what's the deal w/those giant orange things? Why are there so many - where did they come from?)
That is greedy stealing. Indeed, it may be taking food out of the mouths of other people who haven't gotten there yet, or who themselves wouldn't selfishly HOARD everything they can stuff in stolen carts and racks.
The sad thing is TV will never show the innocent people who really suffer cuz of others' plain-English selfish greed.
Take a close look at: or something.
Looters taking advantage of Katrina devastation
Looters were grabbing whatever they could, carrying big garbage cans full of clothing, jewelry and other goods as they waded through hip-deep water down Canal Street -- the main thoroughfare in the city's business district.
In some cases the looting took place in full view of overwhelmed police officers and National Guard troops.
