Any time there's a disaster, there are moonbats trying to cash in on a liability lawsuit. The Gulf oil spill is certainly not an exception, with DUmmies lined up from Louisiana to the Florida panhandle with their hands out. In this case, it's so far-fetched they have to depend on Al-Jizz to get their scam publicized:

Gulf spill sickness wrecking lives
http://english.aljazeera.net/indepth/features/2011/03/2...
Nearly a year after the oil disaster began, Gulf Coast residents are sick, and dying from BP's toxic chemicals.
"I have critically high levels of chemicals in my body," 33-year-old Steven Aguinaga of Hazlehurst, Mississippi told Al Jazeera. "Yesterday I went to see another doctor to get my blood test results and the nurse said she didn't know how I even got there."
Aguinaga and his close friend Merrick Vallian went swimming at Fort Walton Beach, Florida, in July 2010.
"I swam underwater, then found I had orange slick stuff all over me," Aguinaga said. "At that time I had no knowledge of what dispersants were, but within a few hours, we were drained of energy and not feeling good. I've been extremely sick ever since."
National health crisis
Many of the chemicals present in the oil and dispersants are known to cause headaches, nausea, vomiting, kidney damage, altered renal function, and irritation of the digestive tract. They have also caused lung damage, burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing, pulmonary edema, cancer, lack of muscle coordination, dizziness, confusion, irritation of the skin, eyes, nose, and throat, difficulty breathing, delayed reaction time and memory difficulties.
Further health problems include stomach discomfort, liver and kidney damage, unconsciousness, tiredness/lethargy, irritation of the upper respiratory tract, hematological disorders, and death. Pathways of exposure to the chemicals are inhalation, ingestion, skin, and eye contact.
"We’re all lab rats and we didn’t even know it. We’re waiting to see how it’s going to turn out."
I wouldn't put so much as a toe in the Gulf waters, even here in the Keys. nor would I eat anything coming out of these waters.
it is now the Gulf of Death

1. BP should be held responsible...Will it happen? NO.......
Translation: I want money. And my plaintiff's attorney wants 40% of it.
Wonder if the Silky Pony has been in on this yet.

3. the US Health Dept and EPA should be held too
for not warning, explaining, and treating the ill

2. A friend of mine was bragging about lounging on the
beach in Pensacola just yesterday and that her and her husband were going our for oysters that evening. They're not safe, are they? (I didn't say anything)
So far, DUmmy Greybnknumbers, millions of people who have eaten an oyster or a shrimp from the Gulf have died. But Gulf shellfish safer now than at any time in history. In fact, of the people who ate them prior to 1910, the fatality rate has been nearly 100%, while very few people currently eating them have died.

10. I am sure she's aware of warnings, but I think it's a
matter of not wanting to hear bad news. I seem to know a lot of people who are angered when I mention things like this; I'm always "so negative."
It's even worse, DUmmy Greybnknumbers, you're a lunatic moonbat, and none of those people can stand to be around you.

12. I get same reaction by friends who spend lots of time at beach.
They get mad if I say anything.
and they eat local seafood there.
Me, I won't even go down to Mobile anymore.
Those folks aren't your friends, DUmmy dixiegrrrl, they're normal people who can't stand your moonbat ass.

11. That's their thinking, exactly.
I'm a "downer" if I say it's not safe to swim in the Gulf, or don't eat the seafood--it's poison. Sad, because they're such nice people (friends from high school that I've reconnected with via facebook)
I guess a lot of people have run into nuts like DUmmy Greybnknumbers on Facebook.

6. I don't doubt these chemicals are causing health issues, however...
"Aguinaga and his close friend Merrick Vallian went swimming at Fort Walton Beach, Florida, in July 2010."
I live in Fort Walton Beach, we swim in these waters and did during this time too. We fish and eat the fish. If one swim was causing all these health issues, our entire town would be in the hospital. I'm friends with charter boat captains and crews, they are out in the gulf and eat the fish daily. No one I know is having health issues.
Lousy Freeper Troll, probably getting checks from BP and the Koch brothers.
And now, my favorite moonbat post in a long time! DUmmy femrap, a faceless, anonymous, unknown member of the teeming, squirming DUmp masses, comes up with a classic. From nearly a thousand miles away in Ohio, DUmmy femwrap can SMELL pollution wafting northward from the Gulf!

8. Thank you for posting....
So sad that we have to get news of this from foreign sources, but I know our MSM has been told to STFU.
While reading this, I remembered that yesterday I smelled something that I have never smelled before. I am in Ohio and we have had much rain and flooding lately. I am a weather geek and always look at radars. Our rain was coming straight up from the south....which is unusual since our prevailing winds are usually westerly or northwestern in the winter.
When this BP spill first occurred, I said to friends, "Just wait until a hurricane or strong winds come up from the Gulf and our farm lands are covered with this toxic mess."
I have a very acute sense of smell since I quit smoking many years ago. I just wonder if what I whiffed in the air was that dispersant mixture. I immediately went back inside. It wasn't a bad smell per se....just something that I have never smelled before. I've traveled overseas, grew up in the country, lived in cities...never smelled anything like this. If I hadn't read this article, I might not have given it a second thought. Now I'm suspicious.
Now this mighty earthquake...Mother Nature is sick of us and I don't blame her one iota.
I wouldn't live in the Gulf area nor visit it after what BP and our own gov't has done. We're a fascist nation and are ruled by the Corporations that enslave us. They don't care if we get sick and die. We are on our own now.
You know, it's probably an honest mistake. DUmmy femrap really thinks she's smelling BP pollution from a thousand miles away. It's actually a new poison they're spraying from those chemtrail tanker planes.
