Another Transportation Disaster: Train Derails Carrying Hazardous Material Near Major City

Residents of a small town outside Detroit, Michigan, are on edge after a train carrying hazardous material derailed Thursday morning causing a potential leak.

The train, which crashed in Van Buren Township, is not thought to be causing any potential environmental issues as of yet, though emergency responders are remaining vigilant.

According to WXYZ-TV, six train cars jettisoned off the track and have caused significant traffic problems in the local area.
 
Fortunately, the car containing the hazardous material showed no signs leaking, and the public is not thought to be in any danger, according to the local fire department.

Would you be willing to fight and die for multiculturalism?  Would you put your life on the line for “Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity” (DIE); “Environmental, Social, and corporate Governance” (ESG); or other Marxist worldviews?  Would you go to war to preserve the right of delusional men to use women’s restrooms and dominate women’s sports?  Would you fight for any government that hunts down and imprisons J6 protesters as political hostages but celebrates Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters who cause physical injury and property damage?

WTF did they think was going to happen. Amtrak has derailments on a semi regular basis. Did they think they would magically end because they were sending hazardous material on the same rails?

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
The biggest messes get the most attention.

Try having one go off the rails hauling crude oil, Petey.

AMAZING! how much attention that gets, especially if there is a fire involved.

In fact, the same people who banned pipelines wanted to stop that first, because of a couple of spectacular (and tragic) derailments, and blamed 'Big Oil'.

(Funny, if a boxcar load of Charmin goes off the rails, they don't blame 'Big Toilet Paper', even though it is a product even more universally used than oil)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
