Thoughts? Who's to blame? Who here is directly affected by it/will be? I just saw some pictures on associated press, it's really bad and getting worse. Also, I lol at their attempts to contain the spill, it's like they aren't even trying.

DISCUSS.

It shows how corrupt our government is and how little effort is being put into this. Like someone quoted in the news... "This is Obama's Katrina".

ps: someone delete this piece of shit which is about to turn into blade vs louie vs balla vs smack/mustang vs klan no one vs iclan vs grinch vs masood. Obvious troll is troll.

The enviromentalist's are to blame, if we were aloud to drill closer to the shore, when shit goes wrong we would actually be able to fix it.

well obama can destroy BP, lose lots of jobs and make gas prices go up....


no doubt its an epic "natural" disaster . but there is like 3000 oil platforms in the gulf , in 2005 when all those hurricanes passed through not one drop of oil was spilled and like 10 platforms were damaged.


lol "HE HATE ME" is the ony reason anyone will remember the XFL

I'm sorry but isn't BP a privately owned British company. I'm pretty sure they are...
I read somewhere they gave small family owned Louisiana fisherman groups a total of 1 million dollars in retributions, for the loss of a season, what a rip. Especially when the company makes 10 billion a year.

I am awesome.
BP= British Petroleum.
It is lousy what they're doing to attempt to clean this mess up, since they tried putting the cap in, there has been a 20% increase in leakage, it's not good, and the dispersant that they are using is destroying natural habitats for animals in the gulf. They need to find a solution, because its nearing hurricane season and if the oil makes it to southeast Florida, it will blow it up the east coast which will become an even further tragedy. But yeah, just watch CNN at like 10:00 EST, Anderson Cooper does a good coverage of it.

Well i'm not sure what the news is like in America but the main stories i've read are about the BP PR team going nuts making thousands sign documents and legal papers within hours.

Just shows what their main concern is, money>environmental disaster.
But then again, that's how capitalism works.

I really wish something like that would happen to me in real life. It'd be the most esoteric yet awesome thing.

now that obama is in control of the oil spill, does that make it a nigger rig?

You guys know that the depth where the spill is coming from is 5000 ft. Making it impossible to dive, and underwater robots can only do so much. What will it effect? Well communities all along the coast in the Gulf will be affected because commercial fishing is a large part of their income for many families there. Hopefully the other oil rig thats apparently drilling will relieve the pressure coming out of the damaged pipe, but the original rig was drilling almost 18,000 feet below sea level. So about 10,000-13,000 feet into the bottom. You don't just drill 10,000 feet overnight, its going to take a while.

BP fucked up huge, and now their blaming it on the firefighters haha what a joke. The funny thing is you think the agency controlling BP would get thrown under the bus but only the head woman got fired or w/e

it is the worst oil spill in history since the exxon, this is pretty fucking crazy to be honest. 48 days or something and still going.

Obama "the buck stops here" -unfortunately the oil is still leaking.

you can tell we are fucked when cnn is using viewer mail to figure out solutions to this problem, and the whole shit with trucking in workers while obama was there was hilarious, and they got caught red handed. Asses will fry, believe it.
