Reply to comment by PennSaddle in Governor Josh Shapiro Announces Pennsylvania Will Conduct Independent Water Sampling Following Ohio Train Derailment by susinpgh

Go ahead and clutch those pearls, but here is an example from yesterday in this very subreddit:

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro says his office made a criminal referral in East Palestine train derailment

> Ok. But can he worry about our state?

This type of thinking has always been brain dead. "You're worried about the tsunami in Japan while we just had the biggest oil spill here in the South?"

Yes, as an adult, we can think about more than 1 thing at a time.

I mean, that’s one comment. Moreover, we shouldn’t forget the lack of oversight & pressure upon NFS to manage its lines here in PA to a higher degree. There is obvious negligence, which is what I’m hoping this person is referring. We need to avoid this happening again, here in PA. I don’t oppose testing like this.. in fact I love it, but a lot of what Shapiro (and many politicians) have done here is basically put on a show to prove how it wasn’t their fault. Regardless of any of that, this “team” mindset I see just constantly is gross. It’s like each of your “groups” views the other as some lower form of being. Get over yourselves.

Thank you for proving my point. This is an absolute clown take. The only person you're fooling with your fake nonpartisan act is yourself.

Do you genuinely feel as if your government is doing everything they can to ensure your safety with your best interest in mind in regards to transportation/infrastructure issues, healthcare issues, environmental issues? Our Commonwealth has been very lax as of late with a lot of these things & it’s somehow a “clown take” to say that the Gov of the Commonwealth might have an interst in making sure no spotlight falls on Harrisburg!?
