Guy says that it was violence against property and against property of people they have problems with.  BS!  It was greedy people seeing an opportunity to get away with crap.

Still scary though.  Now imagine if that had been a week long blackout.

On a separate note, wonder if the same vulnerabilities are there?

Don't know, people keep using the blackout of 2003 as an example that everything would be fine

I  think that can be a bad mistake
