WTF thats a 7 series BMW in that bottom picture, that is by no means a cheap car so why the hell is someone who can at least afford the down payment sinking to such a depth. To hear someone wish for death to avoid such a situation really speaks volumes about the state of things. Some savy non-profit minded folks should really start up some kind of organization to help folks in this situation, because its just not right to do that to someone and then allow the common scum of the planet paw through their belongings like that.

Also, I am curious, SD, when you spoke to the lady to get her story, did you happen to ask her why she was allowing this "wonton scavenging" of her belongings to continue un-protested?

Ok I took a few pics, but you're going to have to trust me that less than an hour ago there were tons of people there and the sidewalk had mountains of furniture and belongings on it.
What I captured here are the stragglers picking at the leftovers.
Argh!

You're asking me more than I know B ...
Quite honestly I typed up this thread in haste an in a bit of a state fueled by both sadness and adrenaline.
What I was mostly trying to convey, and why I put it the "meltdown" forum is people's behavior in the moment. The lady was more of a personal thing that in retrospect I feel almost bad to have shared for it has caused indirect grief to so many of my fellow members.
These people were so frenzied in their pursuits that I would venture to guess that most of them didn't even notice her. Heck they didn't even stop when my friend pulled up in the cruiser.

this makes me sick.
perhaps you could get some info for us to help her?
