I have a friend who lives high and dry on the bank down there who builds custom Harleys. He had to post 24 hr armed guard to protect his shop. Food? Water? He builds fuckin' choppers! What would someone trying to drag a 121" S&S motor out of his shop have to do with survival? He had to shoot a fucker in the ass for that. Cops came and wanted take him inwhen he called forthem to come pick his bleeding ass up. A county deputy came over and deputized him sohe could legally protect his business. Or a flat screen TV? A guy got in trouble for shooting a looter (who shot at him first) trying to haul his electronics shop away. I don't know of anyone who could eat any of those things, anyone here who can? I could understand getting some food or water where you could, but stealing peoples business and personal belongings that won't have any value until the lights come back on? That was the biggest load of bullshit ever foisted on a nation.
I know a lady who lived down in the 9th ward. For months any building material you took down to fix your house dissappeared. You would put in a window, come back the next day its been taken out, a toilet for God's sake. They went back and not only the toilet, but all of the pipes too. You don't think 'ol Pres Bush was scavenging around down there at night to build his house after he lost the election do you?
They abandoned it and moved to Baton Rouge.
Now if we started building that lid...
