Nothing short of looting under color of authority. I'll bet they laid waste the donut section in the first hour. The food will go off anyway, so what does it matter if people take food? Not your choice, though. It's "stolen" until it gets "donated" - and the only one who can decide when that happens is the legal owner. Wal-Mart has the legal right to let it all rot if that's what they want to do. Not that I'm advocating hoarding, which is what that would be, but legally they have the right to keep what they own. And I'll bet that the only "discipline" those cops get is for letting the public get wind of their looting. They'll probably be told - unofficially and it never happened, of course - that they should have shot the TV crew and some civilian and claimed that the "looter" shot the crew. |

You have an overly legalistic definition of what's right if you think it's OK to let people starve because your goddamned cash registers can't ring up sales. Were you ever given the opportunity to play Charles Laughton's role in Les Miserables? It seems it would be a natural part for you -- no acting required.
