The result of this 'Would you shoot the looters dead' - poll does not seem to go the looters way..

What is really scary about the looters and the general anarchy is that basically the 'looters' are not different from me or anyone else. They are human beings that subjected to certain environment and perhaps in some cases genes, will perform the most hideous acts. The world has witnessed this happened many times before in a civilized /restricted society. Former Yugoslavia comes to mind. Friendly neighbors for decades starts raping, murdering, generally behaving like animals (oh and looting), when the general conditions change.

Perhaps not a parallel comparison, but my point is that the egocentric, reptile animal are within us all giving the right/wrong circumstances.

The looters say: We have been poor, bashed around and lost hope for years. Its not more than right we get a bit of a refund from those who have.
Some of you say: They steel our property. Not more than right they are shot dead.

Donīt get me wrong - I do not condone looting. I am just horrified what Homo sapiens is capable of.
