They Should Be Shot

That's what one does with looters

GREENSBURG, Kansas (AP) -- Four soldiers and a reserve police officer were arrested Sunday on suspicion of looting cigarettes and alcohol from a store in this tornado-ravaged town, state officials said.

Bastards.

This is my home town, and I agree with your assessment. However, the people they arrested were "supposedly" rescue workers. I have been told by family members who were in the area that the individuals who were arrested may have been wearing the uniforms as a ruse to get into town, as only rescue workers were allowed inside the city limits when this occurred.

It makes me ill.

I live in Ohio now, but this type of news travels fast.

I hope all your relations are ok, Joni, and I'm awfully sorry how everything is just...gone. My Bride is from Kansas, as well.

It does really make one ill.

It's a simple rule:

All looters will be shot. Surviving looters will be shot again.

Joni:

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your hometown. I sincerely hope none of your family came to harm.

I'm glad the whoever-they-were are safely confined to jail cells.

Joni, I'm sorry about your town, and I also extend my best wishes for the safety of your family and friends.
