Why is America freaking out over the nuclear fall out from Japan?
    #14131763 - 03/16/11 03:32 PM (12 years, 11 months ago)

I mean seriously? There is no way any nuclear radiation is going to reach the states. I just saw on the news, every supplement store sold out of iodine pills.. REALLY?

Cause uranium spreads easily and has a half life of 4.47 billion years.

That's a great question!  I live in the pacific northwest where they said the radiation could drift, but many are also saying it will never make it this far.  The US hasn't had a major earthquake, yet we feel the need to panick and grab attention...?

Japan is closer to the States than you think. You'll notice most maps have it at the opposite end from the states, but remember also that the world is round and when you go off one end you find yourself at the other.

I'm not worried about it personally, but it is something to think about.

it's potassium iodide

fallout could definitely reach the west coast depending on how bad this gets...

it may not be significant, but it can happen

Very true. But wouldn't you think the only people that need to really worry about it are the coast lines?
But, yes it is really important to think about, but people over-react. Which feeds the media. I went off topic, but I mean common? We are over reacting to the problem!
I also personally am not worried about it. Haha!

Mushie, I see you eye to eye. We are just panicing(sp?), because we have nothing to panic about.

I live about a quarter of a mile from the coast and I'm not concerned. The impact of the tsunami on the west coast, also, was exaggerated in the media.

But yeah, it's an ongoing development and I don't think we can count on anything, but I have confidence that if fallout makes it here (which seems awfully doubtful) we'll hear about it before it happens and be able to prepare for it.

Apparently even people in Japan aren't freaking out about this as much as we are, though. Go figure. :lol:

I'm so close to the coast I can hear the waves breaking right now and I'm not concerned. Should I be? I don't watch the news. :shrug:

I'm talking about the Japanese people who haven't been directly affected by the tsunami, which is the majority of the country.

I know. But the nuclear threat is real and I seen quotes form people that are saying
they do not believe their government is telling them the whole truth and they do not
believe them. I hear people are starting to leave Tokyo as well.

Im sad to say that this is something that could happen really soon. I dont think
people should turn their heads on this one.

americans freak out about everything. remember Y2K? we have nothing going on in our lives of any real significance so we watch the news and over react to everything we see.

"We are all intoxicated. We were born into an insane asylum, a world crazy-making. We believe what we see and hear. The real myth is the myth of sanity, of rationality: it's a disease that is eating away at the earth. All the poisons flow from our denial. We deny madness, we forget our crimes, we dismember the corpse, we imprison our children. We need poison to poison the poison, to remember the sacred nature of intoxication, the green body of the young god." ~ Dale Pendell

saying nm is near the west coast is a bit of an exaggeration as well :lol:

i live in OR and im not too worried about remnants of a nuclear fallout in japan making it's way over here. i imagine if it's bad enough that we could be effected by it that we would know about it long before we felt the effects over here. and if that happened to be the case i'd already be well on my way back to the south :cool:
