5. That's Just Stupidity
Never mind the insensitivy, typical Conswervative your suffering is your own fault attitude.

If every one had filled up two days ago, there would have been long lines two days ago.

I remember right after Katrina they were asking people in Florida not to buy gas unless they really needed it, because people making a run on gas stations made them run out. People panicky about not being able to get gas would try to fill their tank when it was half full (rather than waiting until it was near empty) and make the gas shortage a self fulfilling prophesy.
