He just said don't try to use a generator, you are too stupid and will only hurt yourself. Power is going to be out for a long time, just deal with it.

Meatball sandwich. 'Nuff said.

I can't stand him. You can't find any better words in your vocabulary other than to call your states' residents stupid? HE is the one who's stupid.

 

But anyway, that's some great advice from such a smart person. Especially when most of us have sump pumps to run and our basements/houses will flood if those are not running. I only use my generator for one thing, and that is my two sump pumps. I have no problem cleaning guns and reading for a week without running water, electronics and oven.

P.s. - that's also easy to say when you will be sitting in your McMansion in Mendham while your maid is grilling 22oz filet mignon steaks and lobster tails while everyone else will be eating salty fuggin ramen next to candlelight.

I didn't take that away from what he said.

 

I took, if your not prepared, then don't try to McGuyver something up. I think some of you just look for a reason to bash him.

 

I just listed to the PA press conference and i sounded like a damn awards ceromony. I want to thanks Mayor Nuter etc.....thank you jesus, blessed be the God etc.....blah blah....

I hate when he talks down to us. The man is out of touch as he is rich enough to just pay someone. For us that cant we have to battle everything. However I support him. Our taxes would be double what they are now if he were not there.

His comments were directed at people who try to rig something up and back feed the grid. He's right though, people are stupid especially during emergencies. Evacuate if you think you need to, or if you are told to so you aren't risking someone else's life to come and get you.

He didn't use the word "stupid." But that's exactly what he said.

I thought his quote was, If it looks stupid, it is stupid or something to that extent.

I didn't catch this exact press conference, but earlier today during one of his other conferences he proceeded to call the NJ residents stupid for a number of reasons.

Exactly what I heard.

 

Funy how people read into stuff just to bash. The stupidity of people is amazing. They told people to evacuate and they didn't. Now they call 911 for help. I'd leave em there. friggin idiots.

I didn't read into anything. I wasn't expecting him to say something like that, it hit me right between the eyes.

 

Funny how people read into stuff to defend him.

I don't need to defend him. I know what he said. You just like to get a rise out of people by stirring the pot.

This is what I got out of it too.

I took it as if you didn't prepare or evacuate if you were informed to don't do stupid stuff in a panic. Personally I would rather have a governor who tells it how it is then try to be politically correct all the time like our previous governors. The government babies people too much as it is.... Is that what you want???

I just don't like the way he says things, there are other ways to go when saying things like that, especially to your states' residents. He could have easily said anything from don't underestimate the storm to don't mcguyver anything up to when we tell you to evacuate, please evacuate.

 

But no, he chose the route that was pretty rude IMO. Not surprised though.

Don't jerry rig a power source. if it looks stupid, it is stupid.

 

Look - you can take it either way, I know what he meant, you know what he meant. But ahh, he's from NJ and you're from PA and everything in PA is sunshine and roses and everything in NJ is horse manure and flooded roads. We get it.

ding ding, give that man a cigar, You hit the mail right on the head. He enjoys acting like a dick, gets a kick out of it. Must be pretty sad and boring in PA if he needs to hang out with the lowly NJ people on a gun forum.

This is NJ, and like him or not he talks like someone from NJ.
