Probably because the reality is that human beings have evolved to be
cooperative with each other, and there have been very little instances
of mob actions after a major disaster. It's the people who think they
have to defend themselves from everyone else who are out of touch with
reality. The rest of us pitch in and lend a hand, instead of curling
up in fear hugging a gun.
