Regardless of what those of us here at our computers think about the appropriateness of shooting looters, they are going to get shot. Surely we haven't all forgotten the pictures of gun-toting Floridians in the aftermath of Andrew. Louisiana/Mississippi have a similar attitude to Florida on this subject. There is going to be lots and lots of VIOLENCE until/unless governmental authority is re-established in the devestated areas. I am reassured somehwat by the footage of Coast Guard helos rescuing people. That demonstrates a Federal response. But I hope a lot more is happening that we can't yet see. As I said, I think the Navy is there or about to arrive as well.
