Where are the thread police when you need them? Could you stop CARPING on this issue?
And perhaps the Spelling Police should be called in as well.

What about the guns & ammo they stole from a sporting goods store? Cleaned them out I tell you.
"Thou shalt not steal" (NO EXCEPTTIONS placed before or after that rule.)
Biblical commandments notwithstanding, in a survival situation my family comes first, me close behind because they need me, and the rules last.
I would not kill another person to take his assets, but I would take anything I found unguarded that would keep me and mine alive, and then deliver myself to law enforcement only after I was sure they were safe.
I wouldn't steal weapons or ammunition, because I would not be caught in a situation where additional quantities were necessary.
These are concious decisions on my part, but in New Orleans and the surrouding areas, you see and will continue to see this type of decision beig made as a simple exhibition of human nature.
Condemn this if you must, but do not expect it to change, not this century anyway.
