2010: Texas City chemical leak

Two weeks prior to the Deepwater Horizon explosion BP admitted that malfunctioning equipment lead to the release of over 530,000 lbs of chemicals into the air of Texas City and surrounding areas from April 6 to May 16. The leak included 17,000 pounds of benzene (a known carcinogen), 37,000 pounds of nitrogen oxides (which contributes to respiratory problems), and 186,000 pounds of carbon monoxide.[69][70]


Look, even before they were fucking over the world's oceans, BP was poisoning the air around Texas City and getting away with it scot free. What the fuck is up with these dudes, anybody think they're reptilians or something like that? How can they get away with repeatedly damaging the ecosystems humans inhabit, if it's allowed to continue much longer we might not be able to even bear living in the changed environment. Every time I look on CNN they look like they're laughing at me, licking their lips and thinking about taking a swim in all that lovely oil soaked water to preserve their scales or something. Yeah :confused:

    There's a BP by my neighborhood. Makes me sick when I drive past it and I see numerous cars filling up.

    We always turn tragedy into comedy through the media to lessen the concern to it and this shit is serious. We cant just laugh at this like it doesnt actually make an impact to our planet and ecosystem.




    Exactly, just like how the bush administration was turned into fodder for late night jokes and dramatic news chatter for daytime news, insted of people looking at the situation seriously it gets spun into a dramatic distraction.

    Kill BP. I mean it kinda sucks for the franchise owners who didn't contribute to the spill at all but seriously bp cant get away without being punished at all. Although BP did not own or operare the rig. Transocean did. I don't see how they aren't getting any blame in this. In my opinion Trans-ocean is mostly to blame and BP's kind of a scapegoat although they shouldn't be seen as blameless either.
