[RC] We Lost New Orleans - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Karen Nelson knelson4299@xxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

Joe Long- the TV coverage from downtown New Orleans didn't show me much 
indication that "people were taking what they needed for survival".  TV sets 
and other things were being LOOTED.  Plain and simple.  Good thing it wasn't my 
store. That's why I am best friends with Mr Remington, Mr Smith and Mr Wesson. 
There is no electricity and won't be for possible weeks, so what TV set do you 
ascribe to "survival"?????  LOOTING, just plain LOOTING.  Shades of the Watts 
riots years ago.  I was there, worked at northern boundary.  I saw it waaaay 
too close.
