Quotes from people in the Bahamas:
Tearful survivor Alicia Cooke wept: "Everything is gone, people are starting to panic. Pillaging, looting, trying to shoot people for food and water. It's just no way everyone's going to get out."
"It's horrible," Brian said. "It's a war zone over there, and people don't know."
"The looting is just insane," Shannon said. "It started with supermarkets, and then it went to liquor stores. That's where one gentleman got shot last night -- right outside the liquor store."
The Bahamas has strict gun laws and regulations. I guess the lawful residents are left with nothing to protect themselves while criminals loot and shoot their way to food, water, and booze!
I can't imagine what the Bahamas and the residents are going through. Not a time I'd want to be without a firearm for sure though.
