Pretty stereotypical dont you think? Despite all of the chaos, everyone just wants to focus just on a few people looting out stores. From all of the coverage ive seen, people have been trying to get the hell out of NO any way they can.

What channel are you watching that youve just seen a replay of the LA riots?

"From all of the coverage ive seen, people have been trying to get the hell out of NO any way they can."

Odd. The TV coverage that I've seen shows able-bodied adult men who refuse to walk or swim (it's the Deep South in Summer, that water won't freeze you) or boat out...but are either whining for government to come save them or are shooting at government agents and volunteers coming to save them.

What channel are you watching?

Some truth there... but when is the last time you've seen uniformed police officers looting...and the rioting in L.A. was confined..I will agree but this is just anothr case of entitlement rage... desperate people hell bent on survival don't fill up on clothing and jewelry when drinking water and food are needed.

You yourself implied that these people were "sitting at home waiting on the government to come rescue" them. There you have it - - Democrat liberalism in a nutshell.

Let me tell you something. I remember very well the riots and burning done after RFK and MLK's deaths. DC was a disaster. My husband went there and was warned not to go into certain areas due to the risk. What was their excuse?
