Michelle Malkin is rounding up  up all the looting reports.  Thanks to InstaPundit for tracking all these sights down for everyone.

While I have Malkin’s page up, I might as well say a few things. First, a quote:

Looters swarmed the Wal-mart on Tchoupitoulas Street, often bypassing the food and drink section to steal wide-screen TVs, jewelry, bicycles and computers. Watching the sordid display and shaking his head in disgust, one firefighter said of the scene: "It’s a f---- hurricane, what are you do with a basketball goal?"

So what’s he going to say when everyone gets back to the block, and Dude’s got a brand new, if slightly rusty, Basketball goal in his front yard?   

            “I got so bored sitting around by myself while all-y'all were hanging out in the Superdome, or drowning, sorry 'bout your daughter Joe, I bought this from the United Nations’ envoy.  They had truckloads of'em.  Basketball goals and Accordians, gotta love the U.N.”.   Or Does he , as a friend of mine suggested, live in a neighborhood where there won’t be a stigma?The latter doesn’t ring true, because even then somebody, maybe the guy’s mother, has to be thinking “dumb-ass coulda stole me some pearls, but now I got this lousy Basketball Goal messing up the front lawn.  Shithead didn’t even steal any tools to put it together, so it won’t raise past 7 feet high.”

 It too easy to say "shoot the bastards" though, and while I certainly believe people have the right to sit out front their store with a shotgun, I can't get behind some guy on a rooftop shooting the bastards as they try to run off.

  "Winged another one! that Guy shoulda stole some kevlar"

But then again, I guess the line starts to get fuzzy real fast. 

 Gonna have to think about it some more I guess, in the mean time I hope these looting-pricks drown, tangled up by the cord of  the stolen  tetherball-set they tried to run off with.
