"YOUR" Gulf Spill

CONTACT THE WHITE HOUSE, YOUR STATE REPS AND SENATORS, YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT, THE STATE DEPARTMENT, THE DEPT. OF THE INTERIOR, THE ENERGY DEPARTMENT and THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY as well.

Why?

SCREAM AND YELL on behalf of the wildlife, the fisherman, the entire community down there.

SCREAM AND YELL for A NEW ENERGY POLICY.

SCREAM AND YELL for YOURSELVES. What would happen to your neighborhood if there's an emergency? Do you live near a power plant? Does local/state/fed government have an emergency plan that's been updated in 20 years? Omni's local gov't hasn't updated our local emergency plan in over 30 years. That means outdated traffic studies and NO WAY IN HELL of EVACUATING ANYONE if it goes into meltdown. You know, like that OTHER Pennsylvania plant did in the 1970's, when they TOLD PEOPLE NOT TO EVACUATE BECAUSE EVERYTHING WAS FINE.

The tragedy of the The Great Wetlands Devastation of 2010 is the fact that there was no back-up plan and no fail-safe. Tragedy isn't quite the word for this...hmm...criminal liability? Yes, that's more like it.

What if your town has a terror attack? A nuclear meltdown? Anything happen at all that isn't the norm? What are YOUR officials going to do? Point fingers and blame everyone but themselves while holding their limp dicks like BP?

We need to wake up and GET ACTIVE. If the Gulf spill bothers you, do something about it. If you can't physically go there and help, which by the way YOU CAN'T, because BP has control of it, then do something where you live.

It's not enough to just "have a plan". You know that the phones won't work, traffic will snarl the roads to impassibility and everything will be fucked. Okay, so where do you go from there? Turn your house into a fortress? That won't work either because if your local power plant is going to explode, your basement fortress will only help keep the fallout in and probably kill you faster.

What's going to happen to the children at the schools? Do the schools have an evacuation plan and if so, where will "they" take your children? What if you're at work, 20 miles away from home and can't get back and the cell phones won't work and you can't call your family to tell them you're hiking home? What if you're home and are forcefully evacuated before getting to tell your family where you're going? What will you do if you're stuck on the highway that gets shut down and can't "get away."

We need to ask these questions yesterday and answer them now because this gulf situation just highlights the necessity of an emergency.

The government whether state or local will BE NO HELP.

We watched elderly people die in the sun 3 days after Katrina because no one could get clean fresh water.

What will YOU do to protect YOUR town from "the next gulf spill?"
