What does SWAT have to do with oil rigs? |
|
Can someone tell me why SWAT teams are being deployed to inspect oil rigs? What the hell do they know about it?

4. Doubtful. No one listens to Freepers. They are probably giving a 2nd opinion |
|
on the best way to seal off the leak. I doubt BP has much credibility at the moment.

13. Freepers have it all figured out... |
|
"I know exactly what is going on with the Armed Teams headed to the rigs. When Oilfield workers leave the Oilfield Company Heliports in South Louisiana to go to the rigs they are not screened as in the regional airports in South Louisiana like in Houma, Morgan City, New Orleans, Lake Charles or Lafayette. There luggage is not checked at all. What probably happened or their theory suggests that a oilfield worker slipped aboard with a bomb and probably detonated it on or off his shift. Right now I surmise that all oilfield workers are being screened in the gulf to see if they have ties to terrorist cells as Napolitano said last year that we have sleeper cells in the states. I am willing to bet that Homeland Security or FBI and the CIA has checked and found out that a oilfield worker had ties to terrorist like Major Hassan situation at Ft Hood. It makes sense and the armed teams being sent to the other rigs verifies that the oilfield business has been infiltrated and targeted to hit our energy sector. If this is the case and the media or Obama confirmed this, the price of gas at the pump would increase dramastically."
