3 power #substations vandalized in Washington state, over 14K lost power
"Two of the break-ins were at #TacomaPublicUtilities substations and the third was at a #PugetSoundEnergy station, according to the sheriff's office in Pierce County, which encompasses Tacoma."
It doesn't say how they were vandalized. #DomesticTerrorism #powergrid

Time for armed guards with permission to shoot when applicable
@GeezerWench they are - the Proud Boys and other fake militias think this kind of terrorism will starta new civil war which they strangley think they will win.
@NorthernInvader A civil war with who? Are they going to walk up to the Capitol and start shooting? Or are they going to surround a Walmart or something?
Knock out power someplace and storm a ... what? A grocery store? An elementary school?
Like what the hell are they thinking?
@GeezerWench They are not smart so don't look for logical reasoning. They think if they can sufficiently interrupt the norm people will side with them and overthrow the government - just look a J6 - too bad more of them had not been killed in that attack - it might have caused some of them to actually think sanely for the first time in years (or life)
@NorthernInvader I'm hoping the Capitol Police have learned a lesson. Other police departments as well.
Obviously, #BackTheBlue doesn't really mean anything to the Hatriots.
@NorthernInvader I'd have to agree with you. Knocking out these substations could kill a lot of people. Especially when the weather is this bitterly cold. Then there are people who rely on electricity for oxygen, etc.
I think these attacks are practice for a larger assault.
