Yep - That is truly sad that there are people out there that would do this kind of thing. But, sad as it is, unfortunately, it's not too surprising.

It's disgusting, but you hear this all the time. Low life's take advantage in times of disaster. Just as bad are the people who price gouge the people who need construction work done & other help. There are always people who zoom in & take advantage of these situations. Only hope that one day karma comes back to them. It's a bit*h...May they get what's coming to them!

That is just so sick HH. Makes my stomach turn. How people can loot after such an awful catastrophe, and to their own too is despicable.
I will keep all of the displaced people from this hurricane and all disasters in my prayers. It is so true what you say. We all take things like food and heat and shelter for granted, and yet there are so many people who are denied it, both temporarily and permanently.

So.... two years ago today is when Sandy hit. Today's my mother's birthday and so that's what made me remember. I remember it being a really foul night even in VA. Two years and while some areas have rebounded, others have yet to recover, especially economically. I remember my cousins being stuck on Hatteras Island in NC until after Thanksgiving, and even now, there was so much damage to the roads, even the smallest of storms wash out the roads there. NJ, and especially Atlantic City are still recovering, and was the hardest hit economically. Breezy Point, NY and the Rockaway area are still recovering. It just amazes me sometimes, the unforeseen havoc that Mother Nature can wreak, and the long term effects that can ripple for years.

You can't change the world but you can change yourself.
The rebuilding of our Sandy demolished family summer home on LBI down the Jersey Shore should be done by early 2015. We are very lucky that it is a summer home, we have family friends still waiting to get back into their primary home. Our sacrifice of missing 2 summers of time with my large family (22 of us plus 4 dogs!) pales in comparison to the loss suffered by many, not just Sandy but Katrina, Wilma, earthquakes, tidal waves and now lava flows in Hawaii . As VA said, the power of nature is unbelievable. I have to say we experienced the best in human nature in the days following Sandy.
