How Low Can People Be

You are right in calling them low lives @RubyHawk because that is what they are. They are the type that would steal from their own mothers.

@RubyHawk It is really unbelievable. I don't know how people can live like that.

@ramapo17 They don't know the meaning of shame or honesty.

@TheHorse Yes it is horrible and now tourists go there to take selfies with the collapsed bridge. Humans are crazy.

@LadyDuck Wow. Talk about bad taste.

So sad.

@ramapo17

It is really sad and pathetic.

I guess so.

Interesting point.

Some people only think of themselves @TheHorse.

@RasmaSandra Thanks. Pretty horrible.

Because people loot stores and shops when there is a disaster because they are easier to steal from during those times. Just like when there are riots people will do the same. Very sad.

I'll have to look up whether looting is even considered a felony. My hunch is that very few looters actually "do time."

@MissNikki Ah, thanks for the info. That one lady looked like she had a lot of light stuff--Pampers? I dunno.

@TheHorse Looting by burglary can be a misdemeanor or a felony in the USA. Here in Canada it is the same thing as "theft" so depends on how much the items were worth monetarily - over $5000 has stiffer penalties.

Right. Some sick people just wait for disasters to happen so they can do these things.

@ramapo17 What a pity if they did get picked up they just might stop doing things like that.l The irony of having your shop damaged by natural things and the others taking everything they can find.

@lovinangelsinstead21 You are exactly right. I understand that they did not even get caught as the officials were to busy with all the rains and down trees. Looks like they knew what they were doing.

I didn't read anywhere that they were arrested. They probably knew that the police were to busy with all the other things going on.

Some people have no morals.

@BearArtistLady I can understand you totally. My sister is very evil and nasty. My mother always asked where she came from and how two girls could be so different. I have always been happy that I am the good one. My sister and I do not speak any longer. I bit my tongue as long as I could when my dad was still alive as I didn't want him upset. After he passed and we sold the house I have never seen her again and I don't plan on it either.

@ramapo17 It makes me wonder about the morals of the people's parents. Part of parenting is teaching your children about right and wrong and that you reach out and help your fellow man rather than stealing from them during a disaster like the storm. My parents tried to teach my brother those morals. It didn't take hold. He was an awful person from day one and it never changed. He would steal from the neighbors and my friends homes. He was cruel to animals, he was brutal to me...the best day of my life was the day that he moved out of the house permanently. I, at times, wished that I had the courage and ability to be as awful as he was and turn on him and beat the living daylights out of him. It never happened, I'm too soft hearted to beat the daylights out of someone. I also am the kind of person that would step in and try to stop the looting rather than stand back and watch it happen.

@ramapo17 That's because everyone is afraid of getting sued these days.

@moffittjc It is so bad but that is true. People sue each other for every little thing. How was I 95 by you during the hurricane? I hear some of it is still closed in NC. We are going up to NJ next week to see my grandson before he ships out to the middle east. I haven't seen him in almost 2 years and I really hate it. He was always "my baby". Hahaha. Of course he is 6'3" and the real baby is 6"4". I am really going to be short next to them.

You are right @moffittjc. The problem is no one wants to take that responsibility.

@just4him Don't you think this is all a sign from the powers above. This country has so many issues lately and it is so upsetting as I grew up never seeing bad things in people. I keep saying the end is coming soon.

@ramapo17 The kind of attitude we're seeing in people was prophesied about by Peter in one of his letters.

I don't know how people can do things like that and live like they did nothing wrong.

@ramapo17 Its really bad that people are okay doing such things

@aureliah Yes it is. I wonder how they live with themselves and what other things they have done.

@Shivram59 wow, that is awful when the police do it to.

Isn't that awful @Shivram59? The people are going through enough and to have these low life people doing such a thing. Luckily there were not any others that I saw but I am sure there were some.

@ramapo17 That's what I intend to say.They are everywhere -in the US, in India and in every country.I am told even some policemen were involved in looting the hapless passengers.

I totally agree with you.

@ramapo17 It's a crime here. But usually they don't get caught.

It is sickening.

@ramapo17 my gosh, tsk tsk tsk

Yes they are and it was filmed by someone. It was on tv.

Me to, it is a shame people do things like this and still get away with it. They most likely know that the police are busy with more important things.

Oh yes @freelancermariagrace I totally agree with you.
