It seems that the thieves are already out and about, taking advantage and adding to the distress of those already affected by the floods.

What would you do if you saw a looter? How should they be punished?

Shoot the bas***ds. How bloody low can you get, disgusting!!!

An icepick straight into the celleberum,no sound,no mess

I thought looters were going to be used by the council as flood markers.... Sure I read that somewhere

Strap the biggest plastic make believe tool to my groin area and f00k them up the @rse while shouting bitch "scream if you want to faster"!

Keith...i so enjoy reading your posts mate...

Personally Mayor Paul Persali has the right idea...turn em into Flood Markers, lowest of the low....

It was a great idea but I think legally would have been a bit suspect.

Govt declares a state of emergency, marshall law... Anything goes....

Sorted!

Looting carries with it already a penalty of 5 years imprisonment. In times of emergency, which these floods were declared, its 10 years.

Sounds about right to me.

Make them a Chain-Gang (weighted down by there 'hauls' perhaps?) and get them working hard tidying up the devastation........with compulsory attendance to all flood victims funerals.

Bastards........

maybe they (some) are just hungry and desperate.

scum of the earth, but such is human nature (in some humans)

name n shame the bastards, they're no worse off than anyone else up there

Nothing wrong with looting from shops - take the opportunity as it arises - after all things are so expensive in Australia and after all, they will be water damaged anyway.

You are just stirring right?

I'm really liking your train of thought.
