amazing how in this country people first go without water for months due to money, then they have high lead levels and cant drink the water.

so disgusted by everything I've read so far. :/ politicians ad anyone else responsible for this need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law

I've been following it, and I hear about it from family members who live about an hour from there. Horrible. Absolutely horrible!

That's right this story has been going on for a while. I'm surprised no one posted about it before. One of the most disturbing situations I have heard and sad that it's in America.

It saddens me, but apparently there are much worse water situations in NEw Jersey. With that said, the horrific federal and state response to the flint situation is deplorable.

I wondered why no one poster about it sooner too.

I am shocked that there is not more outrage on this issue. I would have thought celebrities would be doing more and there would be more support from other communities. I also would have thought a drink company would be offering more to support Flint.

I think it is beyond disturbing and why this is not getting more media coverage is a mystery to me. These poor families are going to have a tough time medically and need support and clean water to drink. There are so many organizations flying all over the world to help other country who are having issues but maybe we need to start focusing on fixing things in this country first.

So horrifying. I wish they would prosecute the higher ups that had knowledge of this and did nothing. The level of apathy displayed is simply horrifying, and I cannot wrap my brain around the fact that Snyder hasn't even resigned yet. All those children and their families...
