Videos of pipe bursts from Texas

doesn't anyone know how to shut of their water??? Come on!

If it could have been done, it would have. The one women said it took firefighters 45 minutes to stop the water from coming into her apartment. It might have been more complicated in an apartment building/complex than turning the water off in one's house.

when there is a busted pipe, you RUN to the main water shut off and turn off ALL the water to everything, DERP

My thought exactly!

I live in the north east of Canada, I understand that infrastructure is not the same. But I have to admit I'm surprised to see these pipe burst everywhere, specially in those hotels...

Many people that live in an apartment complex do not have access to their water shutoff valve. What are they supposed to do? Don't treat them like they're stupid!

In recent years cities in Texas have changed out their water meters/water mains with wireless units that transmit your water usage.

When these mains where changed out so were the utility boxes, the new boxes require a key to access the valve.

So, once again on the interweb we see so many people with little knowledge and even less empathy for others experiencing a horrific event.

Nice going fellow humans....

Conveniently you left out important info: Some North Texas cities, especially those close to Dallas. And there are private shutoff valves. The cities would help you locate these valves if you ever bother contact them to learn about it. It works the same living in Blue state, liberal cities.

So nothing is new. Liberal mindset. All feeling, but too lazy to get to know their dwelling place. Only cry when SHTF, at time only them can help themselves.

Your empathy, feelings don't help. Fuck off snowflake shill.

Dependency. Often coterminous with democrats.

I am calling it: The Texas power outage was a deep state false flagged HOAX

There was no need for ANY power outage at all. There's a big report on this down the page a ways, I'll hit a few bullet points:

1. It is now proven that the deep state did it on purpose, because ZERO (0) AND I MEAN ZERO wind generators shut down, and they were the excuse the deep state used to explain why the power went out. They hatched a lie that "freezing rain built up on the blades, thus forcing shut down" and then simply switched off the entire 30 gigawatts the wind turbines could produce under ideal conditions, via the shutdown of coal, nuclear, and natural gas. PROBLEM: Not only were ZERO wind turbines actually shut down, but they over produced - they produced far more power than is anticipated at this time of the year.

2. They hatched a lie that natural gas powered electric could not make up for the wind turbines that shut down "because the filters in the natural gas systems froze". PROBLEM: As it turns out, there were ZERO (0) incidents of gas outages due to frozen filters, and the real problem was that homes were using more gas than usual, which competed with the gas the power generating facilities used. That was not enough to cause a problem.

3. THE REAL PROBLEM: Coal and nuclear were switched off. There was no reason for this. There were no coal shortages and absolutely no reason to switch off the nuclear reactors, other than to cause a crisis.

In the end, here is what actually happened: Excess wind power made up for the competition for natural gas, and kept what little of Texas was powered running, while coal and nuclear were switched off. The scamming communists then hatched the story about frozen wind turbines and never expected anyone to call them on their lie. THIS IS WHAT VOTE FRAUD LOOKS LIKE. WELCOME TO AGGRESSIVE COMMUNIST MANIPULATION OF INFRASTRUCTURE, BACKED UP BY MSM LIES.

And if "they" want to snope that, I'd like to see Snopes debunk what ARS technica said, though what ARS said was said sideways, at least if you read the entire report and summed it up, the truth could be gleaned from it.

FACT: BIDEN AND THE COMMUNISTS JUST WAGED WAR ON TEXAS, probably because Texas is being a bit too rebellious for them. And now Texans are going to have to bear the brunt of receiving power for up to $12,300 per megawatt hour wholesale, when it is supposed to cost right around $17 per megawatt hour wholesale.


On top of the frozen water pipes and deaths, the deep state just financially devastated Texas. And Joe Tex WILL be forced to pay. They are not going to back off on using the crisis to commit financial crimes against the people of Texas, they absolutely WILL force people who got ambushed by 1000X (100,000%) rate increases to pay. It's their money anyway, RIGHT? They can steal whatever they want because nobody shoots their *sses.

Here is how they got away with raping the public for so much money: Various providers within the Texas power system were operating on trust and simply set their rate acceptance to "auto". So someone who had infiltrated the system (SHIN BET) was waiting to pounce on this disaster because they knew it was coming. For about a day they increased it 1,000 times normal (with devastating prices not quite as high for a longer period), and that just went through the system and got charged to customers. Just wait for the bills to arrive! It will be horrific beyond belief.

Yeah, they actually do. But that means they turn off the water to the entire apartment building. That's why I smell like shit, because I can't wash my hands with no water after taking a shit. The mexican maintenance in Plano and The Colony are incompetent and don't ever fix anything, leading to more serious problems down the line.
