To be honest this is stupid

DOW didnt spray agent orange or napalm or whatever in vietnam

This is like accusing a company that makes knives of commiting every murder in which one of their knives was used

you made the knives you must be blamed

blame your fucking government for deciding to spray all that shit on nam.

im not really for them to be honest untill recently i didn't know they existed.

seriously though blame the guy the killed the man not the guy that made the gun.

This is the truth about Dow. If I believed in God, I would hope that there's a special corner of hell reserved for everyone who works for this despicable company. But I don't beiieve, and there is no hell. Except for the survivors of Dow's activity in Bhopal, who live it every day.

get you facts right!!!! It wasn't their fault! Shit y'all are idiots!

@waterforpeople

Get your facts right about everything you preach, Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) is responsible, and still is Dow just got the short end of the stick by becoming majority stock holder 16 years after the incident....but thanks for coming out tree higher!

@Flamin362 What garbage. You make a chemcial agent with DIOXIN in it for the government/military and what the hell do you think they are using it for? And BHOPAL is still toxic and DOW refuses to clean it up.They are also polluting the water if Michigan with dioxin as well. They are a despicable company and you cover for them? Says much about your moral compass.

@frenchne Some Facts:1) Union Carbide was responsible for Bhopal. It was later acquired by Dow. DOW DID NOT CAUSE THE BHOPAL DISASTER.

2) The Bhopal disaster was in 1984. Except for a few high executives, most employee's do not have a choice whether the victims get care. The employees are not responsible for any of the high execs actions.

3) What you hope is your opinion Neil, not "the truth."

4) I am younger than the disaster. Look up everything I've said.

Stop blaming DOW. Blame the people who are responsible for this, the government. DOW is just a chemical company, they just sell their products. DOW may be indirectly responsible for some bad stuff but they've done a lot of to help this world.

You have not highlighted any "injustices and illegal activities," - you just put up a slide show of sick people. Propoganda / Bullshit!

All these criminal corporations are I.G. Farben spinoffs, and all of their executives are directly trained by Operation Paperclip genocidalists.

If you were to take into consideration who produced these products, we would clearly see that these items were designed BY ENGINEERS for a specific purpose, under a specific contract. The use of these products vary.

Why do we have warning labels?
