•••• Violence over BP ••••
Man charged with reckless endangerment, terrorist threats over BP leak. BP not charged:

A Pennsylvania man has been charged with reckless endangerment, terroristic threats and harassment after a fight he had with his girlfriend over the BP oil leak. He threatened her with a meat cleaver.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100523/ap_on_fe_st/us_odd_oil_spill_cleaver

NOT charged with reckless endangerment, terroristic threats and harassment with a meat cleaver was:

BP.

They're above the law.

Nevertheless, BP bodyguards WERE accused of making death threats against a protester in Columbia.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/bp-accused-on-death-threats-1279118.html

Accusations against BP in Columbia represented a defense of sorts for the protester. But what about BP? Don't they deserve protection? Don't THEY deserve to be defended against dangerous people? Surely they are getting threats too, right? I would definitely say that BP needs Secret Service protection ASAP....

Protect morally handicapped BP!
Protect morally handicapped BP!
Protect morally handicapped BP!
Protect morally handicapped BP!

Understand. BP needs protection. Bodyguards. Little people don't.

Leave BP alone!
Leave BP alone!
Leave BP alone!
Leave BP alone!

1. Um, what kind of person threatens another person (their own girlfriend???) over
a disagreement, political or otherwise? Nuts is all I can say.

5. I'm guessing a super duper serious environmentalist.
If he's not a super duper serious environmentalist. Then he's just mental.

:shrug:

That's all I've got.

13. It's a statistical fact that women are more progressive than men in this country.

How do you know the guy wasn't a Republican?

7. A criminally abusive partner who probably threatened her about something else yesterday.
Edited on Sun May-30-10 02:38 PM by chill_wind
And a week before. Just maybe not always with a meat cleaver.

10. My husband's father hit his mother and was an alcoholic.
Edited on Sun May-30-10 02:56 PM by Jennicut
As was my Dad's father to his Mom, my Grandma. I don't care what they were arguing about, violence is never the answer. That woman should get out of that relationship, fast.

2. Threatening to skin a protester alive. Stay classy, BPigs.
BPUSCG has nothing to fear here in the US. Seems they've got the Wackenhut thugs manning some of their security.

4. Somehow I think he was taking the side of BP in the argument.
Probably listening to Limbaugh. (I could be wrong.)

Edited on Sun May-30-10 02:34 PM by breadandwine
One o' them tree-huggin' "softer sex" was gettin' eco-upity.

So he HAD to go after her with that meat cleaver.

11. I can't understand why most people don't target their hostilities more accurately.
If this guy was so mad that he'd pick up a meat cleaver, why not be more direct about it? Just maybe, he was really angry at his girl friend.
