New Gulf Oil Leak

The morning of July 27, officials in Jefferson Parish reported a new oil spill near Bayou Saint Denis, Louisiana. The Coast Guard claimed that a tow boat struck a well head, causing the spill, and a strip of oil 50 yards wide and a mile long was spotted near the well early in the day.

The Ocean Futures Society team was onsite within hours and reported a geyser of oil and gas spewing 25 feet into the air and raining down on the marsh.

Why is it that the 'Ocean Future Society' video says that the tugboat 'Saint Denis' collided with the well head, yet all the other reports say it was the 'Pere Ana C' that collided with the well head. So why does the supposed facts of this incident NOT match? I do wonder if the Ocean Future Society is pushing environmental propaganda with this video now...

@2222554 No, our report says that the collision occurred near Bayou Saint Denis. We did not list which ship was involved.

@OceanFuturesSociety But various agencies did. So which one is the accurate version? I appreciate your reply...

[OceanFuturesSociety]

@2222554 I did a quick Google search on Pere Ana C and there is a NOAA incident report that lists this vessel as the one that collided with the well head.

I mean look at them and there save the oceans and their future with their environmental donation button... Aren't they special...

This well was an abandoned oil well, why would anyone abandoned a well that produces oil, its shooting 100 feet into the air.? I think the oil is coming from the Macondo Capped well; they are holding back the oil and the pressure is pushing the oil everywhere else.

This is an attack on the american people, if not, they better name an adversary ricky tick, cuz the people are going to consider this a first shot real soon. There is no earthly reason why any company would let this happen after the bp issue, unless it is intentional. Unless and I stress Unless this is and earthly cataclysmic event we are not being told about. Call me an alarmist all you want, but reasonable, critically thinking people, can't and wont dismiss this shit for much longer. Be warned
