And that’s what that Corexit does, it ruptures red blood cells, causes internal bleeding, and liver and kidney damage. …

    BP is a terrorist organization the same as Al Qaeda and BP Corporate officers have committed a terrorist act against America by murdering Americans and destroying the Gulf of Mexico (in process).
