[Babagounj]

What I find disturbing is that no one or no group has released any info on these incidents but the FBI has all the answers.

Hinting it might be because of a drag show without any evidence. More likely left wing ecoterrorists.

Time will tell. But it happened in Oregon too, no drag shows around.

Not so fast. Something eerily similar happened in California in 2013 and another incident earlier this year in Ohio was thwarted by authorities. The incident in Ohio was planned by right-wing extremists who wanted to create chaos in hopes that they'd kick off a race war.

But the bottom line is that we just don't know what happened.

Did the right-wing group have a bunch of FBI agents infiltrating it?

You may be wrong there, old guy. I'm willing to put cash on it.

No no no only right wing extremists do this stuff...

Utahn who planned 'granddaddy' power outage headed to prison for shooting out substation

An Escalante man who investigators say had plans to knock out power to the West Coast was sentenced to prison Tuesday for shooting at a power substation, causing blackouts in two southern Utah counties.

McRae told the informant he was trying “to help save the earth from humans who are hyper exploiting” its resources and causing "abrupt climate change," according to court documents. He allegedly said he was committing the crimes to "destroy industrial capitalism" and to "do millions of dollars of damage to the fossil fuel industry."

You're right we don't know what happened, but that hasn't stopped the left from pushing their conspiracy theories.

Despite the sheriff in North Carolina saying he saw nothing to connect it to the drag show

 

[TearsInRain]

without pointing fingers, i can't tell you how many discussions i've seen online about how easy it would be to knock out the US electrical grid with a few dozen strikes in the right places with battle rifle+ calibers

I think the left and the right and the middle are asking questions. People want to know what to make of this.

The left immediately jumped to conspiracy theories and the media helped fuel them.

Has anyone considered it might be a "test" by some of our foreign friends to see how we react, how quickly and subsequent guards put in place to prevent future related events?

Proactively helping.

Nah, it's right wing dudes who don't know how to be patient for when it might actually be necessary and instead blow their wads on stopping some tranny show

It also might be a ploy by the electric companies for more gov't funds.
If it was determined to be a National Crisis, old joe would earmark Billions to them.

Damage to our power grid only raises the cost of energy by forcing companies to repair and protect their assets. Green companies benefit on cost basis

I know every rate hikes in my state has to go before a state regulatory board, who always questions everything.
Most times the increases are lower that requested.
So getting a huge windfall from Uncle Sam could really help their bottom lines.

We need more coal fired power plants.
