The amazing thing about the attached news report is that the police officers don't even try to hide their shopping trip from the news camera. Of course, maybe they were getting supplies for those in need.

As one that believes stealing is never right, I'd have a hard time taking something that didn't belong to me. At the same time, I'd have a hard time watching my child go without water or food for days. I'm understanding of those that took essentials for life, since the stores weren't open to sell and the aid couldn't get there in a timely fashion. Those that took electronics and other playthings, I'll not shed a single tear if they wind up drowned or shot. There's NO excuse or reason for that kind of behavior.
