Compare the mindset of government dependents with a "you owe me mentality with the honorable non-looting response of the Japanese.

Well, the Japanese have a culture heavy in self respect and shame.

And, I’m sure, no blaming.

I have heard some nuclear power officials taking blame, but that is hardly the same thing.

Maybe the Japanese don't have quality imported beers that are worth looting?

japan doesn’t have a bunch of dems/progressives running their country promoting criminal behavior every day

the highest/most severe crime is always in dem/progressive held locations.

progressives are people with no moral fiber

No televisions. Just the essentials.

The only people optimistic about America in 2011 have never visited even a moderately sized city.

I must be part Japanese. That video of the Katrina looting made me ashamed just watching it.

LOL. You gotta love the way Keif Uberschmuck tries to minimize the lawlessness.

The differences in culture are pretty striking. There’s just no equivalent of Lootie and the Beerfish in Japan. Even their organized criminals (yakuza, etc.) are weirdly different.

You’re doing quite an injustice to the United States using New Orleans as our representing city to compare to Japan or any nation. LOL! I think even Honduras (on a good day) would be offended by that comparison.

That looks like survival to me. No beer in the picture. No electronics. My God! They are “stealing” FOOD! I don’t even want to think about what they have witnessed hours before that photo was taken.

And, of course, lest we forget -- the starving, oppressed people of South Central L.A. grasping for the "essentials" during the riots of 1992.

We are also being far to critical of ourselves here. The activities in a deadbeat freeloader city like NOLA were far different from the other cities and states hit by the same storm. Everyone focuses on the N O chaos, but things were orderly in the other areas. Also most of the intelligent people left N O for safety leaving the rabble behind.

I am sure if we dug around Japan, we would find some criminality somewhere.
