Let's take it to a less reactive example:
Just about every time it rains in Houston it floods. We don't need much rain for the streets to fill with water.
The weather man comes on TV and says "Stay where you are. Don't go out. The streets are flooded. It is dangerous."
But hey, I'm out of Cap'n Crunch cereal, and by gosh, by golly, I want my cereal NOW!!! So I go out in my car, trying to drive on flooded streets, and my car gets stuck, it floods with water.
So, using Drole's logic, I should blame the weather man for ruining my car.

Actually, you should probably blame the store that is staying open in the face of the weatherman and everyone else advising people to stay the @#$% indoors, and enticing you out with its yummy Captain Crunch. The store is implicitly saying by its actions "it's OK for you to drive even if you pass Noah on the way."
