Business as usual in our wild capitalism.
Texas Republican q’ers killing people one day at a time.
You forgot to blame Trump
I am sure the chemical plant operated under strict safety controls, oh, strike that, it’s located in Texas🙄
As usual...Texas.
It seems like a month doesn’t go by without something blowing up, shutting down or leaking in Texas. Decades of neglect from lax Republican regulatory policies are to blame.
Oh dear…that is a very bad way to die…my condolences to the families :/
That’s some strong fuckin vinegar
How awful, hopefully this can be prevented in the future and they have pinpointed the failure. Bad deal for a group of extremely safety conscious folks. Always keep an eye out for your brothers and sisters in and around industrial sites. 😢🙏🏼
