Stores are closed, there is a major disaster and they need to feed themselves and their family, what are they to do? Fish for their food?
Let me clear this up–we were w/police who had discovered a dead body & mentioned we saw ppl w/faces covered going into a supermarket nearbypic.twitter.com/bfM5WCCO1e

That is no reason to steal did they leave money behind for what they took?
-
I agree Joseph rider, watching the news I've seen all kinds of shelters and store houses passing food out.
-
Again stop trying to justify your blindness to the desperation caused by a disaster. If it was that easy it wouldn't be called a disaster.
-
I'm not blind, far from it. I'm so glad you are a disaster expert. Perhaps they will come and steal from your home.
-
I feel horrible for all of these people, but I cannot and will not agree with stealing.
-
Sorry 140 chars, I meant to say because they are overwhelmed, stuck and cannot reach you in time.
-
It's called being prepared, you have ASSumed I've never been in a disaster, you were wrong...

Kinda funny that people cant distinguish between "informed" and "called." I'm guessing the cops didn't really give a rip.
-
To be fair, it is an ambiguous term. Inform can mean to notify. You call someone to notify. It's not an impossible mistake.
-
Not really that ambiguous. You walk up (as a reporter on the ground) to someone to inform or notify someone.
-
Holly, I'm not the enemy here. If I'm in my office and tell someone I informed security that someone is smashing my desk, it could mean that
-
I called security to let them know. Or, as you pointed out, that security came and then I informed them.
