former-republican (994 posts) Looting happening after the storm , peoples business are being looted by low life scumhttp://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 http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203880704578089310413107632.html

If the Kenyan had a son, he'd look just like those looters.

Obama voters taking advantage of Hurricane Sales.
The Korean store owner in LA with the AK47 during those riots had the right idea.
