Japanese Officials Laugh at Kids Being Forced to Drink Radioactive Milk

Hard to believe but sadly it is true. During a budget committee hearing a member from one of the minor parties brought up the fact that teachers in Fukushima are forcing kids to drink milk which is radioactive. Several leaders laughed and thought it was really funny. This is the leadership Japan has these days.

@superscheu i came here through ur video :P

[superscheu]

what's fucked up for me is (1.) a teacher yelling at a kid for not wanting to drink milk. kids here refuse to drink milk all the time. i hated milk as a child myself. and (2.) the disrespect shown by the politicians.

[superscheu]

@freedomwv I was never disagreeing with you on that point. I just wanted someone to have evidence that the milk being served was in face from Fukushima. You're giving parents credit for being infallible. I'm not saying the mom wasn't right, but I also can't say she wasn't wrong. Fukushima accounts for 1.3% of Japan's milk production. How do we know the milk served at that school wasn't from a different prefecture? All moot, cuz they shouldn't be living there for... what's the half life of Cs137?

@superscheu Exactly! Which is why forcing kids to drink something their parents are pretty such is bad for them is fucked up. Again, I avoid everything coming out of the Fukushima area. It is clear that plant has puked out a tons of radiation. When I saw that massive explosion in the easy days of the situation I knew at that point that everything in that area should not be eaten or drank. Better safe than sorry.

@freedomwv and their example is also assuming that milk is the only source of heightened radiation that you're consuming. I agree that those places should be evacuated. And that food shouldn't be shipped or consumed if produced in the effected areas. I believe that stuff is slipping through the cracks. I haven't been shown any evidence though, that supports my fears.

[superscheu]

@freedomwv it's not trolling to ask for supporting data for something as serious as this. Reading the report, it says that once they found contamination the spinach shipments were suspended. It would be logical to assume that the milk would be suspended as well. According to the data, if you drank that milk every day for a year would give you about as much radiation as a single CT scan. Still... more radiation than I want to get from my milk or salad.

[freedomwv]

@superscheu I really cannot tell if you are trolling at this point or not but you seem to be hell bent on pushing this as far as you can. okay. Look for a video titled,in all capsRADIATION FOUND IN JAPAN MILK AND SPINACH

You should be able to find it pretty easy.

@iamgoddard Thanks for the back up. Yeah, I got a BIG problem with forcing kids to drink something parents don't want them to drink. As for me, I am avoiding anything coming from that area. I don't want any milk from the Fukushima area. The supermarket in the local hood here in Adachi-ku Tokyo is selling Fukushima milk for about 90 yen and people still will not buy it.

[superscheu]

@iamgoddard but again... if we can find evidence that doesn't require a leap of assumption that gross negligence is happening then please point every one in that direction and put the issue to bed.

[superscheu]

@iamgoddard the source of the food is unknown in the video, but it's not a matter of it might. it either is or it isn't. if it is then the video is justified. if it not then the video is incorrectly labeled. but again, as far as I know they're testing the food served in schools, they always do that, and have been doing it even more stringently since the disaster, so the logic says they wouldn't serve contaminated milk...
