    Are looters even a thing in the US or is it copaganda? I feel like its crazy that looters are a thing, its a sign the US is broken society.

      They are, but it’s not exactly something I’d condemn. Most of the houses are going to burnt to a crisp. People who are the victims of it just trying to evacuate is one thing but 98% of it is happening in the areas that are directly in the path of the fire or already burnt down. Reminds me of that quote about pouring gasoline on the oranges from grapes of wrath.

      Besides, when private property matters more than human life; destruction is a form of protest. One they sincerely hate.
