Scruffy is filling up his and the wife’s vehicles.

We make daily trips to and from the hospital. Stations are already out near us.

This is how the panic buying feeds itself.

If we don’t fill up because people are panicking, we get put into a cleft stick, therefore we have to buy as well.

Good times.

I mean, friend, DIRECTLY out of Biden's mouth...

quote:

“How can we trust that you’re going to act on climate — on the climate crisis — if you’re still attending fundraisers that fossil fuel executives are attending?” Beaulieu asked, according to the Daily Mail.

Video shows Biden walking over to the woman, taking her hand, and making a solemn promise to “end fossil fuel … before 2050, God willing.”

“Kiddo, I want you to just take a look. I want you to look into my eyes,” Biden began.

“I guarantee you, I guarantee you, we are going to end fossil fuel, and I am not going to cooperate with them. Before 2050, God willing,” Biden continued, adding that 2030 is not a realistic goal:

I did and I know you're focusing on this pipeline event and not the overall strategy of Dems.

I'm just panic posting.

I work in O&G, I'm fully aware that Democrats are generally not friendly towards O&G

which is how I know there are far more effective measures to hurt the industry than faking a cyber attack on a pipeline

The wife has friends driving over to Clinton from Meridian today to eat out (girls group monthly deal). She let them know there is no gas here last night and they are still coming. Hopefully they leave Meridian with a full tank.

Thats what I was thinking as well. Why would they want to just contain it to one small sector? I get that whenever something goes wrong, people always think that there is a motive behind it caused by the government, and I just don't think that's the case here.

I live just north of Birmingham. My closest gas station to home (a Shell station) increased from $2.65 early this morning to $2.79 now. I just stopped to get gas there (which I actually needed, not a panic buy), and they are asking people to limit to 15 gallons.

I topped off yesterday. Now the problem is I have gas. I want to go looking for gas because it's the thing to do right now but I don't actually need any

I myself have never seen a protest at a drill site. Wonder why?

You would think the people who want fossil fuels gone would try to slow down the operations or something

You are kidding right? Numerous protests at fracking sites, all along the Keystone Pipeline route, and several occasions of national NGO’s trying to disrupt petrochemical operations in Louisiana. To say nothing of local organizations and their Carpetbagger brethren protesting environmental and COE permits.
