Granty, at least those looters waited till there was a hurricane. We have gangs of Sudanese looters here-usually in teen gangs-who are increasingly making a habit of just casually walking in and helping themselves to anything they want.
There's strength in numbers. That's what they know. So what they do is get in a big group of about 20, walk into a store-so far they have hit supermarkets, Officeworks, Kathmandu (sells outdoor gear & clothes, usually high end expensive). Then just pick up what they want.
In the latest attack, they just surrounded the security guard. What could he do? Nothing. Even if we were USA & a security guard had a gun, what could he do against 20, especially in a shop filled with innocent customers?
These kids have learnt the secret-that the laws only work because most people choose to respect them. But if you're in a big enough group, majority rules. Trouble is, if caught, they get a slap on the wrist, they aren't scared at all. I'd hit the families with massive fines & with a warning that for multiple serious offences by minors, the whole family may be deported with the minor.

I'd be interested to hear about the hurricane-exactly what it was like in daddyo's part of the world, did they feel worried at any stage or was it milder by the time it hit his part of Florida, what damage etc & how is the neighbourhood now.
