#1 It is not just the dead at Brétigny-sur-Orge, it is civilization which they loot. Did they cause the wreck, as one commentator suggested? Was there looting at Lac-Magantic, Quebec ?

#2 Movie Patton, post guards at the grave sites to prevent looting. In the old days they waited till they got them in the ground first.

#6 Wait... I thought both unbelievers and the dead were "unclean".

Does loot purify everything?
