Why aren’t the heads of BP, Transocean and Halliburton on trial for manslaughter or negligent homicide in the deaths of  11 oil rig workers in the Gulf of Mexico in April?  Instead, BP is  threatening journalists via their directives to the  United States Coast Guard with criminal action if they dare to film the oil spill coming ashore.  A foreign oil company telling our Coast Guard what to do?  Yeah…. Only in the Corporate Fossil Fuel States of America.

video from NationalWildlife — May 20, 2010 — National Wildlife Federation’s President and CEO Larry Schweiger testified before the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee May 19, 2010 on what he witnessed while on the front lines of the oil spill response effort.
