Kind of like the welfare state for those who are too busy working to partake. Maybe we should get first dibs before the loafing slackers. Imagine their surprise, smashing through the plate glass window and the place has already been picked clean!

This gives me an idea... What if, instead of being empty, the stores were filled with "decoy" merchandise. Like cardboard boxes printed up to look like flat screen tvs and stereo equipment? Then they could be loaded (booby-trapped) with those exploding dye packs like they do with money in banks. After the "event", cops can just go around and round up the dyed looters!

Quite possibly too true - if the looting actually happens here, and spreads from Clayton to the Best Buy on Eager or the Walmart on Hanley.

But that'd be intrapment!!

So if anyone is in the area and has a free hand, I could use a computer

INGOing on my phone has gotten kinda old

Change that to small c4 charge

Only if the boxes are loaded with bear traps...

Just sneakers fellas, these people don't touch the work boots.

I'm in the presence of greatness.
Seriously, I've not followed this thread but it seems to me if they indict this guy just to quiet the mob it might be a little tough to find qualified people willing to serve in law enforcement in the future. As long as justice is served...I'm good either way.

 

[bwframe]

I wonder why no one has thought of the concept of creating looter bounties? Police? Insurance companies? Business organizations?
Nearly everyone has a camera in their pocket now days. $50 a head for pics/video that could positively identify a looting criminal?

 

[printcraft]

is there such thing as online looting?

Yes! Just get hold of hoosierdoc's credit card and do all of your online shopping early! I hear he likes to share the wealth.

Got it. Brownells is much happier now. Sorry, you won't be able to buy anything until HD pays his bill.
