Clinton got pounded after Andrew. The looting was massive and if you don't remember the houses that weren't blown down were burned down by their owners.

Miami was much worse then NO and I remember at Homestead AFB the military looted the BX and Shoppette because it took 30 days for help from the outside to arrive.

Never ceases to amaze me the ability of people to mis-remember stuff when they really want to.

If Clinton was pounded after Andrew, then I'll eat my computer monitor. George HW Bush was President during Hurricane Andrew (August 1992).

I was there within five days and saw no looting or fires. Because everyone was armed. Hell, we were shooting escaped baboons from Yerkes.

Clinton got pounded after Andrew. Why was that? He wasn't the President. The looting was massive and if you don't remember the houses that weren't blown down were burned down by their owners. Actually, I don't remember that. I remember a lot of people helping each other and some sporadic looting. But no gangs of looters like we're seeing in Narlins. Do you have some links to those stories? Miami was much worse then NO How many thousands were killed at Homestead? And how deep was the water the following week? and I remember at Homestead AFB the military looted the BX and Shoppette because it took 30 days for help from the outside to arrive.
