2010 Oil spill conspiracy theories: True or false?
Since the beginning of the BP oil spill disaster on April 20, 2010, conspiracy theories have been an explanation for much of the unexplained. Why did BP use so much chemical dispersant, despite EPA orders to stop? CNN and MSNBC reported stories of dead dolphins and other marine life corpses being buried by BP before photographers could turn photos into headlines. Even now, independent science seems to be fighting an uphill battle in getting out information on the aftermath and long term environmental damage from the worst oil spill in US history.
Below are just a few links that lead to a different kind of story about the 2010 Gulf oil spill disaster. It is up to the individual to decide if they are true or false?

Some of these theories are just outlandish and were probably written while being abducted by aliens or after too many hits on the bong. Quite amusing though. The same people that quieted environmental and animal rights activists when these pipelines were approved are now showing dire concern about the results of what we've always known would happen.
Oil companies and drug companies can and clearly will do whatever they want and government will never stop them. Only the people can stop them. Stop buying their gas and use fuel alternatives. Make your next car purchase a fully electric Nissan Leaf. Purchase those Yokahama tires made with orange oil. Show your children how to make a difference.
