Whispers
Become Louder; Potential For Gulf
Evacuations?
According to Matt Smith of Project
Gulf
Impact, the situation in the Gulf is
quickly
deteriorating. Matt Smith and his crew
have
been working on a feature length film
documenting the Gulf oil crisis. In
their
travels during the past three weeks
they have
witnessed many different events such
as two
different types of sand on the
beaches, where
BP has attempted to cover up the oil
stained
and Corexit covered beaches. “There
are
whispers that are becoming louder,
people in
the area are talking about
evacuations” Matt
was quoted as saying in a radio
interview on
Intel Hub Radio. Others such as Greg
Evensen,
a former state trooper with many
insider
contacts, have been quoted as saying,
“evacuations are imminent.” As the
situation compounds and there is no
end in
sight, evacuations seem like the only
viable
option. If something is not done to
get the
people out they will most likely
become
overwhelmed by what some are
describing as
chemical rape. Will the evacuations be
forced?
What will happen if some of the locals
disobey
a mandatory evacuation order? Where
will
people be relocated to? These are all
valid
concerns that surround this issue.
Tensions
have risen as Gulf residents and
people in the
region seems to be getting
increasingly angry
over the BP oil spill.
