Default Re: What is wrong with people? (hurricane-related)

I was on the road out of Houston because I lived in a mandatory evac. zone on the edge of Galveston county. In my 26 hour trip out of Houston to Plano, I didn't see looting per se. What I did see in grocery stores and convenient stores on the way out was alot of just straight up shoplifting, by taking advantage of the mass amounts of people in the store at the same time.

I wouldn't be suprised if people are looting in the south part of Houston right now since its a ghost town in most of the towns out there.

Thanks Hurricane Rita for the worst road trip of my life.

There was one redeeming quality on the trip was to be one of the first 10 people to drive 45S northbound, do upwards of 100mph pass cops and laugh. Good times.
