Having lived through worse conditions than these folks are facing living on gulf coast most of my life you do not upset these workers who have a hard enough job as it is.

New Haven - Yale = Bridgeport

Fine let them continue to live without power.

The utility workers can probably be more productive elsewhere. Put these morons at the bottom of the priority list.

Not sure if this is one of the places that would not allow non-union crews in to help. If so, instant karma. If not, my bad.

There's no excuse for this kind of behavior-I don't care what kind of trauma you've lived through.

They should be the last to get power.

Some years ago I had the misfortune to ride thorugh Bridgeport on my motorcycle.
I never left a place so fast.

Leave them in the dark.

When our area had a major ice storm and we were without power for a week, we made our work crew hot chocolate ( fireplace) in appreciation. Not sure how throwing eggs is going to work out for these people

Obama's Class Warfare Jargon even applies to Conn. utility workers here? Poor Obama's Class Warfare has been taken to a new level here. Hopefully voters will be able to remedy this on Nov, 6th. by voting this charlatan out of office for good?

Wonder why this kind of behavior isn't being shown? Or the hardships caused by the storm...

Oh, yeah. It might make the President, who flew over and made a quick stop in NJ look bad. You know, like he only visited for a photo op. Or something...

For anyone who thought that Sandy would help 0bama, oh really, REALLY? In fact, scenes such as this and gas lines and shortages are so negative that they are getting less and less airtime even as they become more frequent.

you have no power. you're mad. the mayor is criticizing the utility. and when the workers show up, you throw eggs at them and threaten their safety. so they leave. yeah. that should work out well for you. get used to the cold and the dark.

morons...

Some things never change.

January 2003: Bridgeport's mayor, Joseph P. Ganim, will be on trial on 24 counts of federal bribery, corruption and racketeering charges, the fourth big-city Connecticut mayor in 13 years to face criminal charges.
Sentenced to nine years in Club Fed.

June 2006: Bridgeport Mayor John M. Fabrizi admitted to cocaine and alcohol abuse while serving as mayor.

May 2007: Fabrizi announced he would not seek re-election, but served on the Democratic State Central Committee of Connecticut for the 2008-2010 term. Currently, Fabrizi is a supporter of Bridgeport's current Mayor Bill Finch.

October 2012: Mayor Bill Finch, of Bridgeport CT, was caught joking about corruption saying, “We will get the votes even if they are a few days late”.

The common thread? All are DemocRATS.

The people of Bridgeport are getting the governemtn they deserve.

The true irony, folks. From the front lines. I live in one of those "wealthy" burbs to which the dimwit mayor refers.
No electricity still. Have not seen a single utility truck yet. And you know why? They're all in freaking, non tax paying Bridgeport!
No words for how angry this news story makes me.

I presume these were WARM eggs. After all, they have no power to cool them in the refrigerator.

What despicable people. Repulsive. Leave them in the dark.

Well, maybe Connecticut would be willing to take the kind, caring, generous non-union Alabama utility workers that New Jersey found so abhorrent and turned away.

These people are unreal. The level of entitlement mentality is simply off the charts.

The more I hear about and from some of these "Sandy" victims...the less concern and respect I have for them. Let's see you are without power, someone is there trying to restore it and you throw eggs at them. WTH??? I live in Houston and in Ike and Alicia, our home was without power for 2 weeks. There was NEVER any behavior remotely similar to this anywhere in TX. Is this how all "yankees" behave? or just the repulsive liberal progressive ones? I'm appalled that these people are Americans. That mayor is repulsive and so are these people throwing eggs a blight/pox(deservingly so) on all their(liberal progressive) houses.

I'm in Louisiana and have been through several hurricanes as well as an ice storm when i lived ni Mississippi. That people would attack those who are there to help and working long hours in dangerous conditions is absurd and shows the real 47% entitlement mentality. Pack up and leave guys. Go where you're appreciated.

It would be extremely interesting to learn what is in the minds of those throwing eggs at utility workers trying to restore power. Have any of the egg tossers been interviewed by the media? I would really like to know what their justification is for behavior that seems obviously counterproductive. There must be an angle here I am missing. Nobody is that stupid, not even Obama supporters.

Well. . .maybe I should reserve judgment. The kinds of people who vote for Obama have in the past been known to burn down their own neighborhoods and attack firemen if they are unhappy with something. But that is riot and mob mentality. I have never before heard of people throwing eggs at utility workers who are there to restore their power for them.

Eggs? I thought they were out of food. Amazing behavior toward someone that has come to restore your power. I am ready to let NY, Conn, Calif, Wa, Oregon, Maryland go.

As an employee, I go where I am told to go.
If they have a beef with the utility company, go to the office go to the higher ups. If I was on one of those trucks, I would have gotten in my truck and left for my own safety, they can sit in the dark.

We need Shep Smith standing on a bridge screaming about Bush and no help for... Sorry same idiots, different storm.

Another display of democrat wizardry. Throw things at people that are trying help ease your distress. Makes a lot of sense to antagonize workers who can improve your circumstances. Be a complete fool, vote for Zero.

Oh, {{{Bridgeport, CT}}}} You were smart #7.

Very telling. Kudos to #24. End Times prophecy: But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.

It is not an optimistic scenario.
