Ya gotta see these pics.

Quote:
We were covering another story when we heard shots being fired. We ran toward the sound and found a store being looted. Two Haitian police officers were occasionally firing into the air to try to keep order, but that only worked for a few moments, then the looting would begin again.

They were stealing boxes of candles. An American businessman named Tony who owns two stores nearby barricaded one street to keep looters away. He had armed the two Haitian police with automatic weapons, and they were assisting him, but they were not able to control anything beyond their barricade.

It quickly became a free-for-all. Young men began fighting one another for the stolen items. A number of young men had knives, and planks of wood, screwdrivers and rocks. They were using their improvised weapons to threaten and injure others who had stolen items from the store. The robbers were now being robbed. One group of looters whipped another man with a leather belt. They punched him as well, and they stole the sack of goods he'd just stolen.

I was in the midst of the melee with Charlie Moore, my producer, Neil Hallsworth my cameraman, Vlad Duthiers, my translator, and there was a still photographer from Getty Images with us, photojournalist Jonathan Torgovnik. As things got really out of control, I saw a looter on the roof of the store they'd broken into throw what I think was part of a concrete block into the crowd. It hit a small boy in the head.

I saw him collapse. More chunks of concrete were being thrown at the looters on the roof. The injured boy couldn't get up. He'd try and then collapse again. Blood was pouring from his head. He was conscious but had no control over his body. I was afraid someone on the roof would see him lying there and throw another cinder block piece onto him. I was afraid he'd get killed. No one seemed to be helping him.

I ran to where he was struggling, and picked him up off the ground. I brought him to a spot about a hundred feet away. I could feel his warm blood on my arms. I stood him up, but he was clearly unable to walk. He wiped his bloody face, and I tried to reassure him. He had no idea where he was, and he clearly couldn't walk, so I picked him up again and handed him over to someone behind that makeshift barricade. Tony, the American businessman, gave the boy a wet towel. He was then taken away by someone else. We don't know what happened to him.

I hope he's ok.

So Munkey, you only help those that will pay you back?


If so, then I pity your life and those around you.

True. I guess actually we just need to kill their government. Install our own government and make them construction workers. I would imagine theres enough work to hire them all now.

I wouldn't give up on him. A lot of the folks there are NOT behaving badly. Even after most of the city has been flattened.

The prior history of the country is well documented. The abject poverty as well as the violence described by your father makes for a very sad and scary place. But it's almost too easy to judge from our relatively cozy bearth. To have any grace under that kind of pressure is an extraordinary thing.

I read an interesting opinion/blog piece today that you might find interesting: http://www.cnn.com/2010/OPINION/01/1....haiti/?hpt=C2

What if he was wealthy and his house burned to the ground because he had a meth lab and none of his family of 18 were injured . Would you take them in and house them and feed them until they could get an insurance settlement and rebuild their crack house ?

Hundreds of thousands of people have died, and hundreds of thousands are starving and in need of serious medical care as a result of a massive natural catastrophe. Won't someone think of my two bucks in tax money that is being spent on saving them?!?!

That tax money was ear-marked for blowing browns up, not for saving them!

You lost me...your two bucks is what? You think it's only 2 bucks? The government takes about 28-33% of my income every year and that's ALOT more than 2 bucks.
