Also--if you bid brave Massey men are gonna cry "battery" --when it was a GIRL that got past you- then all you big bad boy go on ahead!

Teh rime of mountaintop removal strip mining is the most horrible environmental injustice today. Bring on more protesters. People outside of West Virginia are seeing the pure corruption that coal has injected into thsi state as well as the toxic sludge the OUT OF STATE coal companies are injecting in out underground wells. SHAME on you coal minions- both out os state coal companies and their local agents.
