They shut down power on one of the coldest nights of the year so far....for everyone in the whole county, 40k people, because of their bigotry.

It backfired on them.

They gotta go home to a fridge full of spoiled food, no power, no internet, no cell service, and explain to their neighbors, families, and friends why they thought that was a good idea. It's almost like instant karma. I'm glad they were stupid.

No wonder Andy made Barney keep his one bullet in his shirt pocket. Give these idiots around here more than one bullet and that's what they decide to do.
