Default Have you seen the gas prices lately?

I've heard in some states it has gone as high as $4 to $5 a gallon. I rank these oil companies just under the Bastards that are responsible for the attacks. Someone please explain to me how gas prices need to be raised by $3 a gallon within 2 days of these attacks....maybe somewhere down the road, but not within 2 days!!! If you want to help the last thing you should do is go fill your tank in a panic. My suggestion is to ban buying gasoline from any Mobil or Exxon stations completley. These are the top oil companies and they set the standard in prices for all the other oil companies in the country. If we stop buying gasoline from them, they will be forced to drop their prices again and all the other oil companies will follow suit. I find this very distrubing that gas companies are trying to profit from this and so should you. Please pass this information onto anyone you feel needs it. Please accept my apologies, in advance, if any of the information I have given is incorrect. I am not a journalist, just passing along info that has been given to me.

I just heard this also, and this is really disgusting, that people were trying to sell pieces of the WTC and the Pentagon on EBAY. They suspended those items and took them off the site, but set a date for sometime in October when they can be posted again. I'm at a lose for words right now.

Supposedly this happened in West Texas, and it was individual stations doing this. There is now a state of emergency in Texas so any stations attempting to price gouge will be prosecuted. If anyone in Texas finds a gas station, or any store attempting to price gouge, they should be reported to the Texas Attorney General.

This may be offensive and wrong but I laughed really hard...

I was in the gas station a few days ago and the gas station was owned and run by an arab (or someone of similar ethnicity) anyway the owner made a comment "how does it feel for you americans to have to pay this much for gas?" Now you could tell by listening that this was not intended to offend, it was a joke, but someone responded by saying

"You fucker, Im gonna fly a fuckin airplane into this gas station!?

They stated it as a state of emergency on TV, they called it something different here, it's in the fourth paragraph.
