In times of disaster,thieves should be shot.


Even if it was your neighbor stealing an unused generator to keep your
mother alive on a respirator?

Knock on my doodr and ask to use my generator if it is that important.
Otherwise thieves will be fired upon.

Again, this is not possible if you are not home. As I said, thee are
certain limited scenarios.

I think you're both off base a bit. It is *never* justifiable to steal
emergency supplies from an individuals home or an emergency facility
like a shelter, hospital, nursing home, etc. - period - shoot the
*******s.

What could be justifiable is to steal emergency supplies from a closed,
abandoned store (not just closed overnight) during a severe and extended
emergency, preferably for use to aid a group of people.
