Praying for tidal waves

[stillsostrange]

To all of those people out there with no sympathy for the people left behind, those who are doing what they need to to survive...

I hope you all know how to fucking swim.

Mom's gonna fix it all soon.

If you haven't been watching the coverage, then I'm not sure you know what we're all talking about.

Though I am firmly in your camp on the looting issue, the above is a bit unfair. Brit made valid points and carefully qualified her statement. The quantity of media coverage she views neither validates nor negates an opinion on looting.

I'm afraid I have to disagree. She carefully qualified her statement by admitting she had not been keeping up on the situation about which she was then posting an opinion. She has a perfect right to her opinion on looting as an abstract concept. If she's going to discuss it regarding a concrete and ongoing situation, with people who are following that situation, it would behoove her to know what we're referring to when we discuss it rather than presuming Amanda was defending people stealing VCR's and jewelry.

This is the qualification to which I was referring:

I'm not talking about missing cans of food or tampons. I'm talking about expensive electronics...

But yes, I see your point that opining about a "concrete" situation requires information.
