Really feel for the children because they had no choice on evacuation -- they depended on their parents.
Honestly believe some folks stayed because they had looting planned all along but believe they are in the distinct minority of folks needing help. Looters of guns, etc., can drown for all I care.
Elderly, children, and a lot of folks that thought this was a false alarm since so many hurricanes had passed by need help now. Whether poor or well off, they are in the same boat now with no home to return to in the city.
Give an new meaning to "left behind"...I guess if I were left behind the first thing I'd want was a gun....to protect myself, family etc. It is a basic tool of survival. And since I don't own one....couldn't buy one under the circumstance....I'd have to loot it.
