Obviously the disaster is beyond words in New Orleans, but the looting is inexecusable. While generally opposed to the death penalty on grounds too many mistakes are made, I fear that if I were in charge in LA right now, I would bring back public hangings. (indeed, it might be worth it to put dead bodies on a rope to persuade others to stop the lunacy.)
New Orleans streets awash with danger - Yahoo! News: "a 62-year-old intensive care nurse at Tulane Medical Center, said that on Tuesday night, National Guard had to stop evacuating patients away from New Orleans because people on the streets were shooting at the helicopters being used.
'When they were shooting they were taking out babies. What kind of people would shoot at a medevac,' said the nurse."
It is scary how fast lawlessness can bubble up.
