I’m sure the dude on day 11 without power gives a shit. I get why you’re not supposed to, but anyone who would try to prosecute this is a moron
Laws and regulations are written in blood.
I think most people would consider over a week and a half without power an extenuating circumstance, especially if no gas containers are readily available to purchase in his area (how many other people just ran out to buy one?) and nobody got hurt.
There’s never an ‘extenuating circumstance’ when it comes to breaking the law.
... I can't tell if you're joking or not.
have you ever stepped out of your apartment?
Have you ever left yours without breaking the law?
