Chaos and anarchy!
Chaos! Anarchy! Harsh, chilling words when we hear them applied to the United States. It's hard to conceive and mentally process what's going on in New Orleans and one would hope it's media exaggeration and hype. But I don't think it is. Not even close. Now, I think I can grasp the desperation of these poor souls. What I can't comprehend is the purpose of rioting, looting (Ok, I'll even buy that--for essentials but not for TV's, VCR's, et al.), shooting at rescue helicopters, hospitals, etc. Could it be that what we're seeing are the sad fruits of decades in which governments have created a dependent class--an ENORMOUS, dependent and dysfunctional class of citizens who don't know right from wrong, who can't function as law-abiding citizens when catastrophe strikes, who resort to virtual savagery in the face of extreme adversity?
I believe it just could be.
