Why don't we evacuate the city while we supply the city at the same time? (so the food/water scavenging can be separated from the looting type of scavenging) In a week or so, there won't be anyone left in NO to loot anything, anymore. In addition, an evacuated person cannot very well carry a plasma TV with them, so there will be no benefit or potential benefit from looting.

And more people's lives can be saved. How many rooftops have a person suffocating or overheating just underneath it?

The insistence on protecting abandoned property (not occupied property, which would be violence, not looting) at the expense of a huge, unquantifiable humanitrian crisis is sickening. Of course, it is something I have come to expect from the sociopathic piece of crap occupying the White House.
