We will soon be approaching the one year anniversary of the worst ecological disaster in the United Sates history. But almost a year later the leading agencies that should be protecting the public can not get it right on the issue of how safe is the Gulf Cost seafood to eat.
This nagging question as been really bothering me more than usual about the safety of the seafood coming out of the gulf of Mexico from Texas to Florida and up the east cost of the Atlantic. I have been trying to get a definitive scientific answer to this question on the safety of the seafood. Millions of people are eating this food and one of the departments reasonable for it's health safety, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Said it had passed the smell test. President Obama said it was safe to eat the sea food and he was going to have some served at a state dinner. This issues became more acuit to me do the fact that this pass Mardi Gras probably millions of people came out to enjoy the festivities and part take of the local cuisine and for us seafood lovers you know it had to include some kind of sea food. A local Television station tested some of the seafood and found that the delicious speckle trout had the highest levels of contamination and they make one of the best poboys along with oysters and shrimps.There are numbers antidotal accounts of illness and death that strongly appears to be related to this Bp oil spill and it’s us of the dispersant corexit.[http://www.youtube.com/...]

One lab that was test water sample experienced an explosion when they was preparing the sample for analysis. We need independent scientifically verifiable proof that the food millions of Americans are consuming is free of oil and dispersant products.[http://www.facebook.com/...]
We also demand that the health issues that people on the gulf coast and in the areas that may have receive dispersant investigated.What was the health effect of the BP gulf oil spill and it’s government approved use of corexit to disperse the surface oil.[ http://www.facebook.com/...] the swan doctor disappeared.
Now millions of gallons of oil lies on the floor and in clumns of the gulf saturated with the dispersant corexit. This corexit and oil is leaching out into the gulf waters. And is a real source of concern, pollution and from what I can surmise from the antidotal and the little scientific work that has been released people who eat out of the Gulf of Mexico from Texas to Florida and up the east coast from the loop current, flowing out of the gulf are being slowly poisoned. I am no expert in this matter and would gladly appreciate three to four independent labs and scientist with nothing to gain but the knowledge that their investigation saved millions of lives. If they do the scientific work immediately and publish it in as many place as possible with peer review,than we can start to lay this matter to rest one way are the other. Millions of people lives are on the line here.
The rain water also needs to be tested because on the east cost and the gulf, a lot of that rain comes from the water that evaporates off of the gulf. So that means all reservoirs, lakes, rivers and ground water should be tested from the gulf coast up the east coast, for the same compounds that are in the gulf (ie) Hydrocarbons and Corexit.
It's very disappointing having a federal government that is own and controlled by corporations that are willing to injury and kill the population and a government not willing to hold those companies accountable. Here is a major issue like the safety of the seafood coming out the gulf and off the gulf current up the east coast and the government has taken the position there is no concern about what you can’t see or smell ,therefore it must be OK to eat. This is criminal neglect and threaten the health of an entire region of our great county. All those who have participated in this diabolical experiment, on the people of the gulf cost, need to be prosecuted to the nth degree. The entire assets of Bp oil needs to seized and placed in escrow to be dispersed to all the citizens who may need assistance. All corporate officials should be place under arrest for knowingly poisoning millions of U.S. Citizens. All those who participated in this genocide should be arrested from the White House down. We want MF answers and we want them NOW!!!
