Nobody will ever accuse the Americans of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

Gas and open containers. Gee that will be safe. Perhaps they think it is a solid material like, oh I don't know, water in a swimming pool FFS!

Well, ironically, the fat white guy was the only guy who had enough brains to put the gas into proper containers.

The IDIOT who pumped the gas into clear garbage bags should be arrested for general stupidity.

This is where those annoying Tesla people get even more annoying, like full vegan-crossfit-intermittenfasting annoying.

What's really funny is how the woke crowd thinks that we should just shut pipelines down for good.

Quebec comes to mind as that province refuses to assist Alberta with the construction of a pipeline to get Alberta oil to the Irving refineries on the East Coast. Yet Quebec has no problem taking billions of dollars from Alberta every year in equalisation payments. What will be really exciting is if Michigan succeeds in shutting down Enbridge 5 which will starve half of Ontario (like Toronto) and most of Quebec of oil and natural gas.

Then watch what happens.

Wawa gas stations are not in Alabama either. PA company but they are in Florida and Virginia.
But the hoarding is real.

At least the third guy had containers approved for gasoline. In NYS it's illegal to transport over 10 gallons without a permit, but people (a majority of them Canadian) used to get 20/30 gallons at a pop. None of it was put into trash bags or storage bins, though...

The next domestic terrorist attack in the States will be at an Alabama gas station. And the terrorist's only weapon will be a book of matches.

Then everyone will get all bent out of shape on how they need stricter Match control laws.

Don't worry Trudummy will give Quebec billions of dollars to help them out. For some reason Quebec has always been treated with kid gloves by all political parties.

It's already hard to find matches in the states, nobody gives them away for advertising and many stores just don't carry them anymore. Lots of people (including me) carry a Bic though...

Why are the gas stations allowing this?
