Oil coats/kills birds in gulf **GRAPHIC**
This is the reality of what's taking place in the Gulf. Not pretty white beaches and happy seabirds.

1. The pictures BP is trying to suppress by denying reporters access. And
they had claimed they could handle a leak 10 times this size. BP is such a disgusting outfit.

4. This photographer must have had access
These are current photos from LA.

Here's a link to one slideshow with several of them.

8. Thanks for the link. On The Ed Show tonight they discussed reporters were
being denied access in some areas by BP police contractors and fly-overs by reporters were being stopped by a control tower.

5. They're all current from the Gulf spill
They are from various slide shows on the internet of the spill.

BP's propaganda commercial depicting it all as being pristine and glossy is simply false.

16. This is truly one of the most horrible things I've ever seen in my life.





This is just pure horror.


These images should be on front page of every newspaper in the country.

17. This makes me sick. I have seen my share of filth
but this is the direct outcome of greed and negligence.

19. Yes, and now Tony Hayward and his stupid ad is
trying to convince me that he and his cohorts give a damn or ever gave a damn. Bastards all.
