(A.K.A. Non-Original Rants)

–Co-opting good stuff from all over the ‘Net and maybe some original thoughts—ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒE

Because you need a weave in the middle of a snowstorm

 It seems that looters decided to take advantage of the snowstorm in Buffalo and started looting businesses, including an Arabian weave shop.  Maybe they didn’t want to wear a hat or something and needed some extra insulation on their noggins.  

As a note, they didn’t loot for food or medicine, just stuff they wanted and decided to take advantage of the situation to destroy businesses by smashing windows and making off with inventory.

In the proud tradition of the Rooftop Koreans, some local citizens decided to deter them by firing off some ammo in the looters’ direction.

It does not seem that anyone was injured by gunfire, but does seem that the looters were duly run off at least in one area.
