Would you just let anarchy reign and whatever happens, happens and we go
pick up the dead bodies later?
The general chaos and overall lawlessness where there's a disaster
situation in a highly populated area is very dangerous. Much more
dangerous of a situation where the likelihood of harm is far greater
from people behaving like criminals than from law-enforcement. In a
situation like NO, the food may as well get taken because if there's
that kind of storm damage to the store I doubt any of the food would get
re-shelved anyway.
It gets very situational when a shoot is "good" or not. I never had to
go under that microscope, but several of my fellow officers did. It's
not a good thing to deal with. The closest I ever got was taking the
weapon out of the cabinet and yelling at a convict to get back away from
the fence. Thankfully, he did. I still got a huge adrenaline dump.
I have no desire to ever harm another in any way. But, if I am put in a
situation where that's the appropriate response, they are the causal
agent, not me.
