The same way they cut Kanye off after his statement. Don't be fooled.
People won't shoot unless you give them a reason to. In this case it may be self defense or a method of survival. Maybe someone is taking that "big assed plasma TV" to exchange for food, with someone who actually think they can plug the thing in somewhere, so they can feed their children. We don't know, because we're not there. We sit in the comfort of our homes watching on tv what the media wants us to see.

Did you watch O'Reilly factor the other night?
The dude on there used the same excuse you just did about "using a big screen t.v. to bargain for food" what kind of idiot thinks a t.v. will do them any good in the city with no electricity? It's a damn cop out. That dude is a looter, pure& simple, I don't care if he's black, white, asian, purple, blue or whatever, he is a criminal.
Is it ok for people to steal jewlery& cars?
No, it's not. I totally understand food, water, clothing [in moderate amounts] but not t.v.'s, stereo equipment, jewlery, other electronics, that is theft& I have no sympathy for people like that. People keep defending the looters like they didn't do anything wrong& that's the problem, they did & they need to accept responsibility for their actions.
