Reminds me of the scene in IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE, during the Bank run. People are lined up and Bailey Savings and Loan and George asks what will they need to get through until the Banks open again. One guy wants ALL his money and the older woman asks for a small amount to get through.

Among the freebie society members, there won’t be any sharing during the bad time.

The pictures and article are a pathetic sight.

It's always amazing to me the varied reactions of folks in a panic or in stressful situations. It brings out the best and the worst in people. Kind of like separating the wheat from the chaff. ;)

Much depends upon the circumstance itself and the kind of people that you find yourself around at the time. There are always a few who act stupid while others are saints. It depends a lot on how grounded they are, their upbringing and beliefs.

I think more of The Twilight Zone episode, called "The Shelter."
