Looting

          Looting anytime is wrong and disrespectful, but especially after a natural disaster. According to New York Daily News, "People were running in and out of Rent-A-Center carrying these big flat screens." After something like Hurricane Sandy happens, you would expect your town and community to come together and help each other out, but that wasn't the case here. People cannot go around doing this type of thing with no consequence. "They destroyed everything. They stole anything they could get their hands on. Someone even ran off with the cash register," said employee Fernando Mendoza. If you steal money and items from a store like that, you are destroying that store's business. When everything is cleaned up and gets back to normal, those businesses might not be able to come back and make money because of all the items and money stolen. If you can't respect your town enough to help them when they need help, then I guess you need to be locked up.
