BP should have been banned from deepsea drilling until proper precautionary measures were mandated by the government, but instead Obama did nothing.

Because BP has so drastically understated how much oil has really gushed from the floor of the Gulf and instead of just capping it off they are still trying to capture as much as possible. The amount of oil now determined to be 3.5 million gallons a day for the past 58 days. That amount of oil could fill 300 oil trucks, or fill the Empire State Building half full as of today and we have to go to some time in August before the other two wells will be finished that they say will stop this gushing they HOPE. Oil could very well end up on the shores in Ireland and the Gulf of Mexico could become a dead zone here. All offshore oil drilling should cease immediately. This is the worst ecological disaster to occur which was man made.

They still keep on giving the world pain while aided and abetted with their other two partners.

For U.S.-based pro-boxer John Duddy, 30, a Derry native and nephew of 17-year-old Jack Duddy who was killed on Bloody Sunday, the dramatic report by the Bloody Sunday inquiry on Tuesday is a validation of everything his relatives have fought for.
