Rumors of looting

[MarkP]

What is the "normal", background level of theft? If the claims are that nothing is happening now then you know that must be inacurate since why would crooks stop their normal activity? Tented houses sometimes get broken into.

Didn't they do something like that during and just after Iselle? How well did that work out?

Seeking knowledge Tom or just 'spouting' off ?

I was asking questions. Seems after a short period of civility you're now reverting to your old behavior and back to being ignored.

I think it worked out well.

It's one of those unquantifiable actions.
Does the average thief say, "better not, it's a felony now." Probably not. The below average thief? Definitely not.

If and when they do get caught though, a few people might feel better that they're charged with a felony.
