We shouldn't allow ERCOT to take the fall. They're complicit, yes, and should be punished, but this order to curtail power to the People was done by Biden. So, in effect, it's just like Cuomo's COVID orders for the elderly. [They] ALL MUSY BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE in a way that ensures this type of shit never happens again. So, death penalties.
Magical things happen when you read the linked articles.
His devastated mother Maria Elisa Pineda told the Washington Post she went to check on him as he was huddled under a pile of blankets in bed and found him unresponsive.
Maybe his mom should have never gotten up? Or maybe today will be the day you will stop excusing the acts of monsters.
I'm with Patriot here, maybe I'm an asshole but I'm honestly laughing at anyone who is freaking out or scared of a couple inches of snow and temps around 0. I deal with far worse every winter. If it gets really dangerous, blankets or build a fire. If you or a family member die because it's 1 degree out, you're just improving our gene pool
Have you ever camped in the cold weather? For a week? Have you ever camped when it's 1 degrees out for just one night - when you don't have enough warm blankets and you can't build a fire? Did you know that a 10 degree bag actually might not work at 10 degrees. You could still freeze to death in -20 degree bag even though it never dropped into negative numbers. Do you know this?
This is a man-caused disaster and the blame should not be put on victims, and so callously. This is terrible look for you. You sound like a someone who writes for Vice.
You should read some first hand reports. You would delete your comment if you did.
I slept in a 40 degree bag, wearing 3 layers of clothing, in a tent in Ocala in 2010 when it was below freezing every night. Worst low was 12. I lost 20 pounds of muscle as I was not fat that month and learned to, I don't know what, rasie my body tempt to stay warm through meditation. I can't explain it but I've heard of others do the same thing in extreme cold conditions. This boy's mother is at fault. The government is responsible for the power outage but it's the responsibility of the parents to ensure their children have adequate warmth for survival. The victim is the child the perpetrators are the parents. It would be no different if the situation was lack of food. The child died from malnutrition. Is that the governments fault or the parents? Who do you want running your life? If it's you, then it's you who must take responsibility, same as these parents. The mistake was to think something like this can't happen. Wait until the real disasters start happening and then you too can blame the government for why the rest of your family is dead.
LOL. And how was the kid supposed to eat food that is frozen? Did you read the reports or you just going off half cocked with you predetermined conclusions?
Correct. It's pretty hard to freeze to death inside a shelter, even a trailer without heat. And amazingly, they've managed to file a law suit. We don't even know for sure if the death was due to freezing or another medical condition was present.
ERCOT is going to take the fall but the orders to limit power production came straight from D.C.

It's called slavery for a reason.
Needs to sue biden and the EPA
thank you Joe Biden, very cool!
If they were good parents they would have snuggled all together, under all their blankets, and no one would have died.
Or they could have gone to the fire dept, police station, etc for heat.

Maybe his MOM should have slept with him knowing it was FREEZING in her house...smh
So today won't be the day then. Oh well. Maybe tomorrow.
Huh?

Stop excusing monsters.
And you are disgusting.

Don't start victim blaming.
