The statement I was responding to was being able to get to another area that has power. A full charge or full tank would probably get that done. But if you are almost out of gas or a low charge then you may not be going anywhere.

But risk the supply chain. If trucks cannot fill up everything grinds to a halt.

I don't understand the propaganda the news media is spewing. Apparently, there was a drag show in an area where power was cut so naturally, it is a right-wing attack on the drag show. Call me crazy but I think these idiots that call themselves journalists do not know the difference between speculation and news.

For all we know there is a new tic-tok challenge out there instructing kids on how to disable a power station.

You may be closer to the truth than you imagine.

...
I worry about both, a false flag attack, Leftists making it look like a Right Wing group, and I worry about the FBI framing some political opponents for it.

I suggest we immediately shoot to kill. I don't care WHAT kind of "cause" they think they stand for (if anything).

That only works if you catch them in the act. Else, who are you going to "shoot to kill"? So far, no one has been caught, and in fact, they don't seem to have any suspects. (That, alone, makes me think it is probably Leftists, creating a false flag style attack.)

No need to go that far. Merely making it resistant to small caliber rifles (5.56 and 7.62x39) and making it impossible to see the (fairly small) critical spots that need to be shot, will make it far more difficult for these small arms attacks.

I am suspicious this is the government.

Biden has made it clear he wants to reduce use to meet his goals... what a great way to achive that without it coming back on him.

If they can't find out who did this, then you will know it was government agents.

I think he got the idea from Russia taking out Ukraine energy plants.
