It must have been a terrible time for everyone. Somehow I doubt the cops requested counseling. The only thing I differ on with Mr. York is that standing in front of a mirror and pointing is exclusively for baby boomers, not me. I'm a retiree with a low-consumption household, and I resent politicians referring to any of their constituents as hogs. If we're going to stoop to name-calling, let's apply it where it belongs.
Hogs are power producers that go after all they can get no matter who gets hurt.
It's legal, friends, only because self-serving politicians made it legal. Hogs are political friends of the power producers who carefully craft legislation such as the provision that required all power sold at auction be priced at the level asked by the highest supplier. The energy shortage is real, but worse than necessary because there also seems to be a shortage of ethics, competency and just plain class in Sacramento. I am handicapped and have my own personal license plate and don't choose to use a handicap plate. Sorry that it bothers him.
