Free Gas! Just step around the burned bodies.

Gasoline tanker explodes in Kenya, and 100 are killed. Scores more are injured. Just horrific. As was the locals' reaction -- pick up whatever might hold some fuel so you can siphon it off.
Thank God the United States isn't that callous yet. I get that Kenya is a poor country. But ... damn.

This happens more often than you think... Nigeria has had several incidents of pipeline explosions in recent years, with similar death tolls.

 

And then someone lit a cigarette ...

 

Like that wouldn't happen here ... I could totally see it if people thought they could get away with it.

 

Those aren't really accidents. People tap into the pipelines specifically to steal from them. Sometimes it doesn't end well.

 

Isn't that callous yet? If he wasn't dead, I'm sure that Wal-Mart security guard from Long Island who got trampled the day after Thanksgiving would disagree.

 

Yeah, but to be fair, they did have an awesome deal on Rock Band.

 

Hell, this isn't any different then Black Friday at your local Walmart. Fighting, and new this year we saw someone die.

 

This could never happen in the U.S.
