By turning left at the dairy section?

There was an article in the San Francisco Chronicle a day or so ago that interviewed a woman who was seeking refuge in the Ritz Carlton. In the article, the woman mentioned that the hotel staff urged the guests to loot the neighboring stores as they ran out of resources.

The problem is, of course, if those people look at TV and see people who look like them committing the crimes, it becomes a bit more difficult to remain detached from the events. They'll have to start caring if they start seeing pale looters on their televisions.
