I am starting to get a little apocalyptic, like the old days.
I, like Paul stated, am getting a sick sinking feeling. This is nothing new for me, but I had long tempered my ferocious and overwhelming hatred for almost everything other people around me do with the philosophical mechanism that is belief. And drugs. Lots of those too.
Now I am starting to revert to anarcho-primitivist, certainly non-pacifistic "burn this fucker down" mode.
It even pains me that this thread counts as old. I am rehashing an old thread because the leak continues. We are safe in the north, but are both furious and crushed. I have family all over there though. My older cousin is a very well respected marine biologist who recently moved back to Florida, to Pensacola. I can't bring myself to call, I can't imagine how he is feeling. I have family in Houston, and Louisiana. I have family on the coast of North Carolina (there is this magic island there, shhhh) and I don't kid myself that the oil won't be at their house in a matter of months if not weeks.
This is a big thing. Paul also stated early on, a fucking month ago, that this was hard to wrap the mind around. I certainly agree. People can't bring themselves to hold a company that leased the rig, or a company that owned the rig, or a company that made the saftey mechanism, responsible. It is too world changing. They will be forced to hold a lifestyle and an ecological/economic concept accountable. This may be the straw (and what a whopper of a straw) that makes people choose sides. Any one ready to burn some shit down? There's some good riots (protests) coming to Ottawa this month. Show them that we westerners have decided to protest like Europeans. With fucking balls. To drag them out (not the balls), to start literally removing people from office. Boy am I angry.
Remember though, all praise is praise to Allah. That seems pertinent.
Here is something I just found shortly after posting from the wiki about the incident:
"Rich Luettich, director of the University of North Carolina Institute of Marine Sciences in Morehead City, said the oil could remain a problem for as much as a year, or even longer. He did say in the unlikely event the oil reached North Carolina's coast, the Outer Banks would provide significant protection.[116]"
All I can say is, 'Hey Dick, some motherfucking people motherfucking live on the motherfucking Outer Banks you motherfucker." Protect shmotect! Asshole.
Lynch mobs yet?
