truly a bad situation for those folks and I'll be praying for them and now here's my obligatory lame pun: there must be something in the water! ...yeah even I know that was in bad taste sorry... 5's

Can't water down the consequences...

Shouldn't believe anything you read in your Marxist media until you've checked it with the other side first. Those trying to pin this systemic failure the EPA has known about for more than a year now on Snyder (who's only just been made aware of it) are all lying hypocrites looking to score points for their wretched causes. So spare us your crocodile tears about the victims; it's not as if you really care about them either.

Please spare me your tantrum. Rick Snyder is responsible for his state and the welfare of those living it. I agree that the problem started two years ago with diversion of water from Lake Huron to the foul Flint river which is corrosive and led to lead from pipes seeping into the system. But the inadequate treatment and toxic effects were reported time and again and then were highlighted by a doctor's report which became well known. Are you going to actually state that Snyder knew nothing at all, especially when various groups and individuals wrote to him about the situation? And now, HE is responsible for getting federal aid since he doesn't have the money for the clean up, pipe replacement, and medical compensation! Obama had to give him a call and jumpstart the effort of getting real help to Flint which has a large poor Black demographic. You're a fool to think that Snyder is innocent. He now claims this is "his Katrina!!!" and admits epic failure that he claims he will own. So far? Nothing fixed, no proper funding, and residents still being billed for highly toxic water. If you think this is no big deal, YOU move to Flint and drink the water, coward.
