This is a little complected, so hopefully i can express my thoughts in a coherent manner for a change. If not, I'm sure there some here who can help me.
I didn't want to hijack a thread but a really good off topic was brought up.
the difference between looters and robbers and how to deal with each. I know how i would deal with either but thats just me.
i think it may be a mental state of mind, wheres Volwest when you need him.
And in trying to understand that difference. The thread starter said "i think a looter would just run through a house quickly grabbing stuff and not see the details" (to paraphrase). I can understand his prospective but i will partially disagree. a common man forced to loot for the first time would be freaked out, jacked up on adrenaline and miss the details but by the 10th house, without a problem? He may be emboldened.
Are you the first house the looter encounters or the 10th?
And I think the first wave of looters wouldn't be the common Joe but rather the criminal element, such as people who have broken into homes before and use the disaster as an excuse to take from others
Such people May have been in others homes stealing before and can be very non-chalont about it. Even stop to make a sandwich from the fridge.
Not saying i have known such people in the past or engaged in such activity or have any idea where to find lunch meat in other peoples homes or business's.:innocent:
I would just like to here the thoughts of others on this,
Thank You
