Yesterday, as most people in the Northeast prepared for a HURRICANE . . . dozens of other people went on Twitter to announce their LOOTING PLANS. For example, quote, "Bout to do some looting when this hurricane finally hits . . . gonna get a new laptop and TV . . . this hurricane might be the best thing to happen." So far, we haven't heard any looting reports . . . but they could be coming.
