Looters - Disgusting human beings!

[prydey]

It never ceases to amaze me the level some elements of society will stoop to.

Without fail, every time there is a disaster, natural or otherwise, with many people forced into desperate situations, you always read of this other element that go around 'looting', which is just another word for stealing.

I will never understand what goes through someones mind to think that they can just help themselves to someone else's property, at any time, let alone in these highly emotional situations like we are currently witnessing again in QLD and northern NSW.

Of course some is just petty theft, with people raiding shops for supplies etc, and while you can understand these situations, that is still someone else's stock and livelihood you are stealing from.

With everything these families are dealing with, this behaviour is just the lowest of the low.

Thankfully, these natural disasters also often bring out the very best in many people, which does tend to restore faith in the human race.
