Jesus cannot come soon enough.

Better to be safe, don’t want LA to tip into the ocean.

[Regulator]

Maroons

[DLfromthedesert]

We all know that prior to fracking, LA never experienced any seismic activity.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Fracking? No. It was Guam tipping over.

[GeronL]

As if it never happened before fracking

[cripplecreek]

Frackers fault.

[Red Badger]

Is there any ‘fracking’ even going on in SoCal?.........................

[Hojczyk]

Fools all

[Fightin Whitey]

Did Fracking Play a Role in L.A. Earthquake?

No but cracking did!

[formosa]

I lived there for about two and half years and small earthquakes that rattled the furniture were quite common there and this was back in the 80,s.

[Fledermaus]

Councilmen Paul Koretz, Mike Bonin and Bernard Parks are retarded.

We need a full investigation.

[mulligan]

What caused the earthquakes before ‘fraking’?

[Sarah Barracuda]

I heard this last night watching our local news and just busted out laughing..an earthquake happens and THIS is what they actually believe..freaks of nature

[dirtboy]

Environmental activists have pointed to swarms of earthquakes in Oklahoma, Arkansas and Ohio as evidence of the risk.

Never mind that the culprits in those cases are wastewater disposal injection wells.

[vaudine]

Seriously?

CA has had MANY earthquakes. It is, after all, on a dangerous default line.

Most of these, including the biggest one EVER happened before fracking was invented.

Liberalism is a huge and scary mental disorder.

We are stuck in frickin' 1984 and Orwell is somewhere laughing his butt off, while General Pierre of Katrina fame is still shaking his head and muttering "stuck on stupid."

[yldstrk]

no it didn’t

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

It was global fracking. We have proof, but we can’t show it to you.

[cripplecreek]

The scare tactics these clowns use are boundless.

Here locally (Southern MI.) they were telling people that injecting water 1500 into the ground could trigger massive flash steam explosions. I did a little research and found that the average temperature of the rock at that depth here is in the 70 degree range.
