You are obviously unable to distinguish the lawless actions of a few
hundred people from the lawful actions of 50+ thousand people. In
that, you are not unlike a number of other misguided talking heads in
this newsgroup. In truth, the vast majority of the 50+ thousand who
remained in the city after the storm did exactly as they were told and
in a lawful manner over several days of unspeakable hardship. And
yes, they did help each other as was evidenced each day in the news
coverage. That you choose to pretend otherwise makes it no less so.

You spend way too much time listening to Jesse and Al.

I seriously doubt that Mr. Drescher spends much time listing to either
of those people but I expect he listens to them on occasion because
enlightened people seek all views. Mr. Drescher seems quite
enlightened.
