You are myopic and brainwashed.  You are saying… 'I don't care if this is redundantly safe'… I am programmed to resist… so I will'.  

What a fool!  Open your eyes to the water/air pollution crisis in China, etc.  Then understand this.  People like YOU cause this!!! You are causing the deaths of millions of people and billions of fish and other animals in other nations.  YOU! 

Because you help delay well regulated and clean N. American mining… so that the elites can dump massive toxins in developing nations without you bothering to find out that reality.  

Your privileged self can go home now feeling good.  Because ignorance is bliss.  And you are ignorant. 

In the real world, while you sip your latte, use your copper wired devices, and preach about the evils of Western mining… everyone and everything else in the world suffers daily pollution you can not comprehend. 

And in the end… much of those billions of tons of toxins dumped by China, etc… end up in US waters.
