Looting for survival
A hand-painted sign outside a New Orleans business warns away looters in the wake of Hurricane Katrina Thursday, Sept. 1, 2005.
Stealing is wrong, and most of us wouldn't do it. I wouldn't steal from a shop, not ever, though if my child was starving and I could find no other way I might change my mind.
Killing is wrong, and I would never hurt a fly, well maybe I would hurt a fly. I would never intentionally hurt another human being, unless my childs life was in danger.
When I was faced with a towering muscular man who was fuming with anger and wanted to kill my boss, and I was not particular fond of my boss, I calmly put my hand on his chest to stop him and escorted him to the exit. Why did I put my own life at risk?.
Until you are faced with the extreme you never know how you will react.
