Thugs Don't Waste Time

They're already looting in Houston.

My brother-in-law is an HPD officer whose beat is the overnight shift in perhaps the worst neighborhood in Houston. We fear for his safety all the time as it is. Now . . . well, I don't envy his position.

Houston,

You have more class than this.

Let's hope any instances of looting are isolated events.

quaid told me to leave a note on my door saying "i will shoot you."

Sounds like there wasn't any real looting to speak of, just a few isolated incidents. Hopefully it will stay that way

I think it will. As Houston was largely spared Rita's wrath, I imagine there's not much widespread damage and power outages that are the ideal scenarios for looters.
I just thought it strange (and sad) that a few fellows wanted to get a jump on the thievery.

Ebil looters.

did you leave the note???

it totally would have worked . . .

I also think it's important to note that the looters were arrested.

We've seen few, if any, pics on TV of looters running rampant. (or running at all)
