If you have to steal something for reasons of survival, that is certainly one of life's classic moral dilemmas, but it certainly isn't about "standing your ground against capitalism"

The good part about communism is that no one breaks into the stores because they know there's nothing in there. So they've got that going for them, which is nice

Good grief, well I am sure they are leaving a list of what they took and an IOU, right? Planning to go back and pay later...

Society would be better if some were simply cut loose...

yeah i agree

also, as was discussed in excruciating details during katrina, stealing food/water is nothing like stealing electronics or luxury goods

I'd be interested in knowing how she'd fill in the blank...

"If someone's home is boarded up and you need what's inside to survive, it isn't looting. It's standing your ground against ________"

I would be more interested in her filling in this blank:

"If you break into a boarded up store during a disaster and get shot in the process, it isn't murder. It's standing your ground against _________________________."

This is complete different than stealing a TV, stereo, or other consumer goods.

I would certainly agree. When I made my post, I didn't think we were talking about anything other than basic necessities for survival.

Seldom is food being looted...it's always things like tennis shoes, shirts, and games and such...

I have no issue with stealing only supplies such as food, water, etc during a disaster. Businesses have insurance they’ll get reimbursed anyways.
