OK, my two cents - I've been around long enough to see (and learn) that looting one's own neighborhood is one of the stupidest things anyone can do. I don't wanna hear that it's a mindset of a socially and economically deprived class and there are reasons for it to happen. Just sitting by and making believe the reasons for looting are valid is not productive and quite frankly it is just as harmful as the looting itself.
