The one that comment is talking about is actually this one http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2012/10/29/377457_10151202408468236_1645987525_n_custom-5bdd807df69f4fb14a71f6894287532e5b7d97ed-s4.jpeg The one with the bloke by himself was posted by the guards themselves

Why is he being guarded, it's not as if anyone's going to come up and attack his grave?

What can a soldier do against a hurricane, aside from die pointless for the sake of tradition?


Agreed.

Considering how tradition is a key part of the very fabric that keeps a military like the American one together, it is hardly pointless to protect it.

How pissed off would you be though, if your son or daughter died guarding a tomb in Washington, instead of facing the enemy in battle?

It's the tomb of the unknown soldier, not just a random tomb.

It doesn't seem completely unreasonable though.

That site I posted says it's 'unverified' but it was posted by the same guy who made a fake shark one beforehand.

Bloomberg is asked how people died.

"One was in a bed, tree fell through the house and killed them. A person stepped in water where [there was] a live electric line." Two people were found drowned in their home, he said.

Bloomberg is asked about the over-capacity of 911 that prevented some people from getting through.

"If a trees falls on you and you're in bed and you're dead, 911's not gonna help you."

There are no worries about the nuclear reactor at Indian Point or elsewhere in the area, he said.

It's a fair point. 911 isn't going to help you if a tree falls on you.

I think you're missing the point. New York got hit by a fucking massive storm. Only 4 people died Two people drowned in their own home so would've been unable to call 911. One got killed by a tree which happens in this country sometimes when it's a bit breezy. The other got electrocuted in water so he was beyond fucked.
Not a bad effort considering it's a town of 8 million residents plus stranded tourists, family members and what have you.

Dead people can't phone 911.

Especially when they're stuck under a tree.

I wasn't being serious, clearly.
