But there was looting in Japan - Chicago Sun-Times

Looting Rears Its Head in Japan - WSJ.com

Japan earthquake: Looting reported by desperate survivors - Telegraph

There are good people everywhere and there are bad people everywhere....

And one of the reasons why there wasn't massive looting everywhere is because the tsunami washed away a lot of the towns and there wasn't much to loot. There were reports of people going into the exclusion zone and entering people's houses at will, since there wasn't much of a police presence in areas no one was supposed to be....

edit: Change "the reason" to "one of the reasons"

Oh, ok. I didn't know about those reports.
But I don't agree there wasn't much looting just because of the tsunami..

1. I'd love to see BobbyCooper's face at his point being disproved
2. I thought there was no looting, so thanks for these report links
3. I have a severe mistrust in newspapers. Anyone can print what they like & pass it as news. I shall believe this however, as they've sourced it. Sounds like the author of the Chicago one has a slight dislike of Japan with their tone, however

There were almost none! You could probably count them on one hand. But there are people out there who point them out, just to come up with their regular nonsense like "their are bad and good people everywhere".

They are seriously trying to compare them just because "there was some looting in Japan".

It's remarkable and shows you in what kind of a world we live in.

Well.. ofcourse there are good and bad people everywhere and bad things do happen.
But I know what you mean. It seems that some people are just waiting for something bad to happen and then say; AHAH! see? I told you!

(I'm not accusing anyone here)

I'm glad you do!

Almost everyone in this Forum refuses to accept the truth even if it's right in front of them. Most likely because it would hurt their feelings to accept this simple fact, that Japan is a much more peaceful and loving culture then any other land in the Western world.

The remarkable thing, that these people really have the guts to post those links above and say.. look we are all the same, is beyond disrespectful to these people.

How in the World can you even compare this?? It's too much for me..

Posting an article with the title.."But there was looting in Japan".. just WOW!!

Tells me everything I need to know.

JohnBraden 08-21-2011 05:58 PM

I didn't title the article and it was on the first page of my search to someone else's query. And I'm done here....

So what does that tell you about yourself, to post something like this??

doesn't that make you feel bad? Is there no sense of shame to post something like this??

I just don't get it!!
