To be honest, I don’t think of looting too much when I think of hurricane destruction…except of course, Katrina.
So this may be sort of a moot warning, but it’s good to hear.
just kidding
I wouldn’t be opposed to that if people are looting.

Generally speaking, two different classes of people. Florida vs. New Orleans.
There is always looting after Canes tornadoes etc.
Heck look at the looting done in briad daylight in Demx areas like Philly, SF Nyc etc
Glad to see a Gov reminding people if Second Amendment.
Just go to Cali, keep your take under $950, and you’re good.
Yes, I’m sure it happens, but it never seems to make news so must be rather low level.

Be still my heart.
In a lot of the hardest hit areas, there’s nothing left to loot.
The happy feeling I have because my state has a conservative alpha male governor . . .
When Harvey flooded our little community there were groups of people that were patrolling the area at all times.
Most of everyone was armed, especially at night.
One guy was caught going through the second floor of a flooded house.
Evidently after he was caught, he fell down the stairs multiple times and landed on his face on the driveway.
Its common sense, if you come to a place that has been affected by a catastrophic event with plans to do mischief, you should expect that the niceties of civilization will not apply if you are caught.
Given the demographics of that part of the Gulf coast, I doubt there will be much looting. However given the average age of residents, there probably will be scam artists trying to take advantage of them.
I noted the presence of “Illegals” among the victims.
Not to make fun of deaths, however my friend was almost killed when he moved his new (2022 F350) and 5 minutes later half of a tree landed where his F350 was.
I remember years ago when a hurricane went through Florida. A film crew showed some homeowners guarding their property from looters. One of the property owners had a (then legal) Striker 12 revolving shotgun. Now it is banned as a “Destructive Device”.
