"Serious Looting" Underway in Ottawa, Canada
Fox News ^ | August 14, 2003

Subscript only at Fox.

I usually don't post such, but this one was to good to pass up, IMO. Plus Chretien thrice-changed explanation for the blackout.

Yeah, but they have diversity. So there! /sarcasm

And they have a certain "Moral Superiority" compared to us as well! /sarcasm

Well, at least it wasn't the "Goofy, Slap-stick Looting" I've heard so much about...

Very good! *chuckle*

call me a naive but I think NYC has been spared this because 9-11 knocked the wind out of the opportunists sails a bit....hopefully it will last the nite.

G-d forbid it was LA.

Still...I'm sure more sophisticated robbers are doing some serious RECON right now.

I bet 47th st is locked up tight as a drum with reams of security.

9/11 gave NYers a better perspective on life, compared to others.

I enjoyed watching them on all the networks failing to take the bait from reporters to act hysterical.

I'm quite proud, in fact, big time proud so far of the citizens in the blackout area.

I am finding very few reports of unrest.

If this holds, it only tells me that the american people are prepared to confront anything thrown at them, be it terrorism or natural event.

What a strong Country we have, I only hope our politicians don't squander that strength.

Cars sliding all over the ice vs running thru intersections without lights? At least we know where the signals are and we stop anyway.

Concentrated pockets huh? That would be along MLK Blvd. in most American cities.

Bull hog!! If you are even trying to drive on ice...you "ain't from here"!
You park it and wait. You don't drive on ice, ice drives you...into something "fixed".

On the other hand, I strive to see how much snow I can "plow through" in a good snow. :)
