Did you ever stop to think that the officer was taking DVDs back to Walmart that someone else had looted? The audacity that some people show regarding their comments to the police chills me to my core.
I'm in Baton Rouge. I've had many New Orleans refugees come through my house on their way to Houston because many of my friends have family members from the area working on hospitals. They owe their lives to the fire department and police.
They've been ordered to take all weapons, ammunition, food, fuel, boats, and other rescue supplies they need. In particular, they are coming behind the looters and getting what guns and ammunition they can off of the streets. Don't believe everything you hear on the internet. The police DO NOT HAVE TIME to do what you and others accuse them of. They are so stretched thin that it is hard for any of us outside of NO to imagine.
