Looting happening after the storm , peoples business are being looted by low life scum

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2225192/Hurricane-Sandy-Man-arrested-looting-Philadelphia-rescued-collapsed-building.html?ito=feeds-newsxml




Eddie Liu arrived at his ocean-facing laundromat, American Suds, in Coney Island on Tuesday morning to find its front blasted open and filled with people.

"There were a bunch of people, like a market," Mr. Liu said.

The crowd was apparently indifferent to the area's big police presence, Mr. Lui said. They dispersed upon his arrival, but not before burglarizing his business, shattering glass displays, swiping soap and pilfering cash from the till, he said.

Witnesses said the police appeared temporarily overwhelmed by the looters. "When I came out at about 8:30 this morning, there were people coming out of all these stores, guys carrying Hefty bags," said Roger McKinon, 40 years old, who lives in the nearby O'Dwyer Garden Houses. "The crazy thing was, there were cops around but all they were saying is get out of here, go home."

By late afternoon, vans full of officers were patrolling and stopped to order small gatherings of people to disperse—triggering shouting and shoving.

Along with the damage from the storm, the prospect of vandalism and looting had some business owners uneasy and unsure of what to do.

Ali Khalid, 56, the owner of 99 Cent Express on Mermaid Avenue, said his store was looted between 7:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. when he left to pick up a worker.

"I asked the police what I should do. They said they didn't know," he said. "I can't close the door and I'm not staying here tonight. It's scary here now

2. Sad to hear...

but not surprising. We live in a country where they hang our President in effigy...I can't take it.

It was shameful that your side hung President Bush in effigy.

Someone should take a poll on the looters' party identification.

Doing their "Obama Thang"........just on a smaller scale than Obama.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

And which way does 'freesomspeech' think those looters are likely to lean voting wise. Sick indeed. As are we dear dumbass as are we. You would think they would get a human nature 101 lesson from this and understand how someone who loots  a store isnt likely to have a lot of ethics when it comes to bennies from the federal gov. Either but let me not digress further.

Yes, it is.  It is why so many of those "poor black folk" decided to hang around New Orleans after being ordered to leave.  It was the oppurtunity of a lifetime to them.  The oppurtunity to steal all of the stuff they normally couldn't.  I can look the other way a little if somebody is walking out of a store with a ten pound bag of rice, but when they have a TV or a bag full of Ipods, they aren't trying to stay alive.

Big difference between "need" and "want".

Not to mention looting costs store owners money, their employees money, distributors, etc.

The Korean store owner in LA with the AK47 during those riots had the right idea.

8. Not seeing much on the news about this.

It's probably right wing propaganda.

don't those states have strict gun laws?  so in essence there is no protecting your property from low life scum.

The rioters burned down their own neighborhoods and businesses then wondered why they no longer had places to shop.
