People in North Carolina a Republican strong hold and also a state which often snubs it's nose at the EPA and other federal regulations are starting to figure out why those regulations are a necessity.

Wilmington, NC is a area with elevated amounts of cancer cases in fact there is a group there called "cancer moms" because so many young kids there get cancer has a little drinking water problem...

N.C. drinking water tainted with chemical byproduct for decades? - CBS News


It turns out DuPont who has a factory there has been dumping by products of a cancer causing chemical into the Cape Fear river since the 1980's. State officials have known about it and did nothing. There was even a study done by the water management company which showed there was cancer causing chemicals in the drinking water and it was hidden from the public.

See dumb dumbs, this is why it's important that the EPA has strong regulations on pollution and not watered down regulations with loop holes that allow companies like DuPont to dump cancer causing chemicals in your drinking water..


NC is also the state which a bit over a year ago had a coal ash spill into the drinking water of yet another town and the Republican run state told people the water was safe to drink..


It's a shame kids have to get cancer that was preventable all because dumb dumbs are more worried that a company like DuPont makes good profits and skirts around responsibility and not so worried about human lives & our environment.. Don't worry fellow Red Hats in NC, you can always buy bottled water.. just make sure to pull on your boot staps and check to see if that water was bottled in NC before you drink...


Obviously we need less regulations and to find out who leaked this to the mean press!

It's like remedial common sense 101 for these idiots. Part of me says these idiots get what they deserve for voting these people in, but then again NC has been found to be illegally gerrymandering in favor of the GOP so it's just BS all around.

It fucking amazes me howstupid some people are. Donald Trump, and every single Donald Trump supporter, are at the absolute top of the fucking idiot list.

It's what happens when we have a political party who is more worried about taking bribes in campaign donations from big business than doing the work of the people. It just amazes me that people, with all this evidence still willfully vote these guys into office all because of team politics.

Brainwashing to the max.. These people literally vote for people who think it's ok that your kids get cancer and that you shouldn't be worried about contaminated water.. There is no other name to call these people but dumb dumbs, I can't even bother to treat them like they are intelligent responsible adults. They are fucking idiots.

You can't take a pic of a smoggy Manhattan day in 2017, that's the difference you imbicile. Such a bleeding antagonist you can't help yourself

RedFred

I can't believe there are idiots that will actually argue and lie in favor of air pollution.

Bladewire

He's smart. He just does it for sport, he actually knows better and doesn't believe half the shit he posts

There are many pics of Manhattan from 1973 with zero smog. You don't thing someone could have taken a picture of a foggy morning and claimed it to be smog?? lol at you.

P.S. I'm all for emissions and clean air.

That 1973 photo has obviously been manipulated.

You would have to be a damn fool to not see that.

It appears to have been converted to B&W and then a reddish filter placed over it.

RedFred

Really genius? Have these been manipulated too? You fucking sociopaths should be kicked off the damn planet.

OP why didn't the EPA do anything about the problem?

Seems a few people don't know the difference between smog and fog. Likely don't know the difference between carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide either.

I love how they used the term "misty smog" to describe fog in one of the pictures above..

It amazes me how biased people are. Pollution has been a problem for decades-- It's all Trump's fault! His supporters are all idiots!

But it's fine when Hillary does legal work for Monsanto and takes bribes from big Pharma and Russian oil companies? Get a clue brother.

Hey Mark, Rachel Maddow is a dumb liar. You're so blinded by Trump hate that you cant even see straight. Very sad.

They have one hand tied behind their back in states like this, because the state dumb dumbs know better.

Not to mention Republicans in Congress are always trying to undermine the EPA so we end up with loop holes companies like DuPont write into the rules via lobbyists.

Why don't you read the article and stop being a dumb dumb?

What? They payed the EPA a fine? What good came from that? It says right there in your article that there are no standards set for GenX. So the EPA has known about the issue for decades and done NOTHING except accept a big fat check for that knowledge.

Good ratings - good money))

Bladewire

You don't live in America. You're not American. You derail a thread about North Carolina to be about your thoughts on CNN and post in every American politics thread, then say other people are obsessed with politics, as if your Nico-T/Mineistaken nics arent in every political thread every day.

Which party is that? From what I can see both are guilty of putting the voters second to their donors.




Good post.
