from CBS news :
A desperate citizenry combined with an absence of police forces has led to increased looting in Port-au-Prince in the wake of a massive earthquake that is estimated to have killed tens of thousands.



As Jackson Browne would say....."someones gonna have to explain it to moe, i'm not sure i understand"

so the president acted swiftly, promising aid to Haiti, sending in the US Navy IMMEDIATELY , pledging billions in food, medical services and financial aid, there were no reports of US troops dynamiting hospitals or levees or wanting to use a crisis to takeover a country for natural resources.......and yet there is looting in the streets....obviously this must be the lingering effects of resentment towards the previous administration.....oR...dare I ask, is nature running it's course?
Good to see there was no sign of the Haitian Police who no doubt took an oath to serve at all times....not just sunny days....similar to New Orleans, where those who are paid to protect the citizenry , up and ran out of town....May God be their Judge when they burn down in hell.


Video footage from the city showed bands of Haitian youths armed with machetes wandering the streets looting, as the local police were largely invisible.
