Give me an honest estimate, in your mind, of how many people trapped in New Orleans circa 3 days post-hurricane were mentally unstable due to lack of medication, versus those who were looting non-essential items.

My first guess puts the number in the former category firmly in the range of "tiny amount compared to the whole", while the latter sits firmly in the "fewer than we saw, but substantially more than any other group save those looting for survival," which has significant impact on the points you're trying to make, it would seem.
