Gang members are tweeting plans for looting during Hurricane Sandy, as it hammers the New York region Monday and Tuesday, according to reports. The Twitterverse is flooded with threats to pillage



"Who wants to go looting with me when Sandy hits?! I need some new shit!"

"Bout to do some looting when this hurricane finally hits....gonna get a new laptop and tv...this hurricane might be the best thing to happen."

"I'm gonna go looting once this hurricane hits Utica."


Who wants to bet those tweets are actually:


an agent provocateur (plural (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plural): agents provocateurs, French (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_language) for "inciting agent(s)") is an agent employed by the police (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police) or other entity to act undercover to entice or provoke another person to commit an illegal act (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entrapment).
