Oh, this place was already a toxic dumping ground. Between the industries that surround this area and what flows down the river, we have always had the highest levels of cancer in the nation.
This disaster will seep into every facet of our environment. Our water, land and air are going to be effected. If that wellhead blows, all bets are off. They'll be such a mass migration from the entire Gulf Coast as to send a tsunami sized shock-wave around the world.
Hell yea Korny. They are still "working on it" as I type this at 8:42 eastern time...~~sigh According to BP we won't know for 24 hours until after it's completed anyway. BS'n bastards.
Ya know what I hope? That when Friday rolls around, that the people of this region gather in mass, as if there were a free shrimp boil, drinks included, all the best bands, only instead we show up under a controlled anger.
And this is what we're going to say, politely but firmly to the first person of authority protecting these criminals, and the politicians in their hip pockets;
"Sir, we are hear to demand that all those top BP officials, associated with this disaster, immediately be put in handcuffs, and the assets of BP be immediately seized. Any and all assets would be used to see to the welfare of everyone effected by this disaster. And we want that to happen now. As in immediately. If not sooner.
We would also demand that the engineers, either from BP, or any other company that can do the job, have only two concerns: stopping that gusher, and cleaning up the mess."
That's what I hope. I'd like to see this.
And it can be done, and done lawfully, and peacefully. All we need is enough people to show-up that are being effected by this sh*t-storm of corruption.
Yes, Mr. Policeman, Mr. FBI, CIA, NSA, IRS-man, Mr. Politician, everyone, good and bad, the butcher, baker, the Boudin maker. Those that can read, tell those that can't, that we've going to work our way up the political food-chain until this is done, and would you like to join us?
We're all in this ... even the creatures we know and love, many of them, we love to eat ... all of us. We're all being victimized by a group of men so disdainful of our way of life, that they would have it destroyed with a wave of their hand, and make statements such as BP Rep Prescott made, when he said, and I quote: "Louisiana isn't the only place that has shrimp."
These words make me tremble with anger.
And I don't even eat shrimp. Allergic.
We know this can be done, and done legally. Anytime a group of men, be they with a company, a nation state, an organization, or otherwise show such disdain and callous disregard for the people of this land, as to put us in peril of our own demise, it is our right to demand we take control of our land, and seek justice from those that placed us here. And if the current authorities can not, or will not do our bidding, than be prepared to join them in chains.
I will be there. Who else?
And bring cameras! That's our weapon!
At no time must anyone do anything other than protect themselves and others from harm.
Beware of provocateurs. If there are any, harass them, but do not attach them in any other way.
Its not a game anymore. Simply sitting back and watching isn't an option.
Its amassing the silence here too, no one, and I mean I heard no one discussing this today. I can almost understand that, it's not unlike being in a waiting room as a loved one is undergoing major surgery, to talk about it is almost taboo.
But it is strange that there is even here a blackout of sorts on the news. You'd almost wish for a play-by-play description of what's going on. Just watching that live feed with that huge gusher hour after hour, is torture. It looks like its getting bigger, not smaller.
Ah, God, we really don't have anything to lose here anymore. We're walking around, but we're dead. It would have been better if they did blast this place with a nuke. At least it would have been quick.
NOLA is a true microcosm of global terror for the ununited states. All of the ten are feeling the WMD of the ghg gang.
ReplyDeleteI fear many 504'ers will be changing their GP's soon M.

ReplyDeleteM, I hope the locals are armed with mucho sludge balls to hurl at Barry & his crew on Friday. Bastards.
ReplyDeleteI just posted this in the Times-Pic-ya-nose:
ReplyDeleteOkay, they obviously want us to riot.

After this is over, we'll have a shrimp boil.
