Today, all of the locals are talking about the lack of looting during our three storms and how neighbors helped each other out.

Same thing during the NYC blackout 2 years ago. Looting after dark was a major concern of officials. Fearing the worst, everyone walked miles to get out of the city and make their way home before nightfall. Thankfully the looting never happened and people helped co-workers and neighbors get through it all. I'm just focusing on the looting aspect -- there is, of course, no comparison between the blackout and the hell the people of the Gulf coast are suffering through right now.

I hate to bring this into this discussion but the FOX guy was talking about 500,00 displaced persons.

The biggest argument I hear in favor of legalilizing the illegals is they will do the job no one else will.

Many citizens will need those jobs.
