Deadly fluoride spill in Kentucky threatens nearby communities
Tuesday, November 13, 2012 by: PF Louis

(NaturalNews) Attend any city council or other government agency deciding on whether or not to fluoridate your local water supply, and you'll get health officials asserting that fluoride is natural, and thus safe.

They don't bother to mention that naturally occurring fluoride is calcium fluoride, while the stuff purchased by communities to fluoridate their water is sodium fluoride, an extremely toxic mix of hexafluorosilicic acid and sodium silicofluoride.

Some time ago, residents and farmers in nearby locations from phosphate and aluminum factories were getting sick while crops and animals were dying from the toxic sodium fluoride gases emitted from the smokestacks of those industrial plants.

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) forced American phosphate and aluminum industries to stop spewing fluoride gases out of their smokestacks during their manufacturing processes by installing "scrubbers" in their smokestacks. Then the gases could be collected as solid materials.

Not sure if this is the right place for this as fluoridated water is some what a CT, but I'm not sure it is truly CT enough to belong here. Being new and all, I decided to play it safe.

I got interested in this topic after my daughter barfed right after getting her teeth cleaned and having a generous finger full of the stuff rubbed on her teeth, and not rinsing. Poor kid.

new here thought I would say hi.

As my handle implies, I am a progressive gun owner. I'm also a father, but I figured that Prog_gun_toting_dad would be too long, and my handle is getting me enough attention as it is. I kinda wish I had picked something less alarming like, I don't know, John_2273.

by now I know that a million people have alarm bells going off about my kid possibly getting a hold of my gun. This is a valid concern for you to have.

It wasn't long ago that a child died when a cop some how managed to leave his loaded gun on the table only to be picked up by his 4 year old child. I think the fact that the child died is tragic, but what really boils me is that the cop got off Scott free. No charges. They could have charged him with any thing from child endangerment to manslaughter, but nothing. not even a slap on the wrist. I just simply don't understand how any one could put their gun down where their kid could get hold of it.

Even if I didn't have any kids and lived alone, I still wouldn't leave a loaded gun laying around. The truth is that guns were designed to kill and who or what it kills is my responsibility no matter who or what pulls the trigger. It's on my hip, or it's locked up.

I acknowledge that this is not 100%, and the only 100% way to insure this gun is not used on me or my family would be to destroy the weapon. Problem is the lack of a gun will not prevent some one else from bringing their own gun on to my property.

Yes, I know, Lets say a crook breaks in. Will I really have time to get my gun out of its locked container? Well you know, you're right. I might get shot in the 5 seconds it takes me to swipe my finger print and load my weapon, and in that event, the crook would be able to use my dead finger to access my weapon. Yes I worry, but the best I can do is pray that I have that 5 seconds.

Yes, I know, What are the chances of me effectively using my weapon after having been so recently asleep? I'm not sure, but I suspect better then if I had no gun.

Could I be out gunned? sure. My chances of being out gunned are a lot higher if I have no gun.

Lastly, could my child get hold of my gun with out my knowledge? I believe not. I am a responsible gun owner and a responsible parent. I mention a bio-metric gun case. the case does have a key in case the battery goes dead. I keep the key locked up in another lock box that my child has no access to. Could my child learn to pick the lock? Yes, and when old enough to do that I will swap out the lock with one that is much harder to pick.

I don't really know if the RTBA should include assault weapons. I don't get why the people that argue that it should are not demanding Nukes for them to keep in the garage being that they are "arms" and such. I don't think banning them is the answer either. The crooks will get them any way, or mod existing weapons to full auto. Not hard to do some times with something as simple as a nail file.

Stating this fact got a post hidden, so that is how I know that DU is really edgy about guns.

Any way, It's nice to meet all of you.
