If a person chooses to have a beach front home they also know an element of risk comes with it. They made a calculated decision and when the tide turns against them it is simply the cost of doing business. A risk they chose to accept. Barrier Islands are inherently dangerous and the wise owner makes sure he is well insured. The owners made their choice of their own free will. So if a storm wipes out their house I have very little sympathy. And for residents who do not heed evacuation orders, which might even account for some of the dead I also have little or no sympathy. In fact I have a touch of dislike for them because when they get in trouble our First Responders have to put their lives at risk trying to save them from their own stupidity. Just understand my posts were qualified to target toward people who have made a conscious decision to accept the risk with property location or their own lives, not the general population. But if they do not have insurance and sump pumps well................................... you know what I mean. So Shamu those who buy property in the States that are known as tornado alley , should have their houses blown away into Europe as well. Whether you're rich or poor in this world, have property in dangerous land slide areas, or monsoon areas, I'm sure the majority have worked hard to own them, and no-one deserves to have their property destroyed, or anyone wishing it. Yes Blackwidow, I also see these comments as insensitive. drunksniper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't imply I am talking about monsoons, tornado alley or landslides when I made no such reference. And I also certainly did not wish it upon them in any post I made as you seem to imply in your last sentence. I qualified my posts to specific areas and stand by what I said, For beach front homes the buyer knowingly assumes a much higher amount of risk upon purchase. To me when you accept that SPECIFIC risk you are less deserving of sympathy when something totally possible happens. The Barrier Islands are an entity entirely to themselves. Their descriptive name alone provides a warning. Try not to put words in my mouth for me, I can usually do that well enough myself. You might also note I admitted to being insensitive so what is your point without altering the context of my posts?

On the work front it seems I am the only fuel terminal in the state of NJ with both fuel (oil and diesel) and power to pump it. I only wish I had laid in more.... I have gotten calls from everyone from the guy down the street and his generator to hospitals and even the governers office and the mayors office in NYC looking for fuel. The terminals and refineries in NJ will not have product for at least 3 to 4 days.... The Colonial Pipeline lost power and that is just terrible for the northest PAD....there are going to be severe fuel shortages in the next 10 days.... PSE&G has made the Colonial pipieline the top priority for power restoration and as I write this a generator from North Carolina is being escorted up the NJ Turnpike by the state police to try and get the pipieline going....I must have sold 15k gallons today and am down to the last 39k. I will be reserving what I have for emergency deliveries only....ie: hospitals and medical facilities......everyone else has got to wait....this is bad.... vipersniper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
