Isn't it interesting that just this morning, the the governor of

They didn't do it earlier because too many police would have been shot by
other cops.


Just yesterday, a local news guy who was stuck in one hotel there
explained how it came cops were seen "looting":
Some doctors treating people in the hotel asked the cops to get medicine
from the Walgreens across the street...
To the TV viewer safely at home, this of course looked like looting, but
in reality, it was helping to save lives.
