Someone that thinks they can take the law into their own hands won't just
stop at shooting the WalMart looters, he'll also go shoot anyone else that's
suspicious. And I bet the suspicious ones are going to all be black.

Please stay on point. The discussion was of police and the military
shooting looters on sight, under orders from the governor or the
president. Nobody was "taking the law into their own hands." It was a
necessary measure to restore civil order, and the only responsible
course of action.

There were some cases of building occupants shooting people attempting
to break in. That was self-defense, an entirely different issue.
Nobody objects to killing in self-defense.

You were the one with the fantasy of gettin' your gun and heading out to
pot a few looters. The police and military would be justified in
killing you too. In fact, that small armed group that the Army wiped
out was probably a batch of nut cases like you. What skin color do you
think they were?
