In April, 1947, a ship full of ammonium nitrate in the harbor of Texas City, Texas caught fire and blew up. It destroyed much of the port city. The Texas Guard, later the Texas National Guard, shot dead the first person seen looting. That stopped all looting dead in its track. (Pun intended.)
But the UK would never, ever implement such a politically incorrect solution, neither would the US do that in these times, but it worked beautifully then.
There is not one item that I can find on the Internet about how they stopped looting there. I wonder why?
