They are just doing this on purpose now?

Like, hey, let's just keep on blowing up the train, and maybe they'll get used to it.

3. Can you be explain what you mean by never happened before.

Never a train derailment in Lynchburg, never a train derailment in downtown by the James, or never a derailment of oil cars spilling oil into the James.

6. Never a train derailment in L-Burg like this before.

4. pipeline supporters will claim that pipelines don't derail

while ignoring the tremendous chances of bigger spills from leaks or breaks in the pipeline.

5. Just pragmatically

This is why I'm not really against the pipeline. It seems if we're going to screw around with oil, we're going to spill some of it whether we have a pipeline or no. It might actually be much safer. So we might as well have a pipeline. Besides, it's going to create 6.3 million jobs........................


Just kidding on that last part.

8. To the oil industry no leaks=lower gas prices.

Hence why they are in no hurry to stop them anytime soon with their own money.
