Could somebody start a goddamn pit thread about how the sailors exposed to Fukushima raidiation now have cancer and are suing TEPCO?

51 soldiers with cancer? From the USS Ronald Reagan?
Goddamn, how they gonna cover this up?
Oh yeah, same way the rest is covered up. Just don’t report o it.
I’m not allowed to start any threads mentioning Fukushima or melting reactors, radiation contamination, or any other nuclear disaster.
Fucking Pit, how does it work?
Since you are such an obsessive troll I doubt anyone will respond to you. However, I was bored so did some searching:
The most, um, credible article I could find on the supposed 51 sailors who have cancer from rescue efforts at Fukushima was this one on AlJazeera America.
I’m going to go with a tentative bullshit on this until I see more information. It seems unlikely to me that 51 sailors are already showing major signs of cancer from radiation from Fukushima, since afaik that’s less than the number of Japanese (who live there) are showing at this point. Cancer from radiation exposure usually takes a bit longer to start to manifest, and 51 out of a crew of 5000 seems awfully high to me this early.
Well, if you weren’t such an obsessive and idiotic (and obvious) troll, you could start all the threads you wanted in the Pit and everywhere else on any subject you desired. But you do chain posts in the threads you are in where there will be 4 or 5 of your posts in a row with no one responding, and you are so obviously trolling that you’ve been limited, for the good of the board, to posting in the few train wreck threads on Fukushima that already exist. Them’s the breaks, chief. Don’t be an obsessive troll…that’s the lesson you should take away from all of this. But you won’t. 
Don’t worry. There are people on this. Debunking efforts are underway. We will make damn sure no sailor ever gets a dime. And no blame will ever be laid at TEPCOs feet.

Unlike you, and the other fuckheads that seem to have unlimited time to spend, I provide sources and science and stuff like that to back shit up.
You don’t. So suck it.
When you have some evidence, do come back. I’ve enjoyed lurking in the train wreck on global warming where you’ve presented your interpretation of what constitutes ‘science and stuff’ to back up your obvious ‘shit’.
Thus far you’ve presented zero actual evidence of more than the fact that some sailors are suing TEPCO for alleged radiation poisoning. Thus far the MOST credible cite for the STORY I’ve found is on AlJazeera’s American web site, and that just confirms that, indeed some sailors are suing TEPCO. I’m sure you don’t understand what this means or why it’s not really proof of anything, since once again you have leapt to conclusions that simply confirm your own idiotic preconceptions of the situation that validates your fucked up world view.
Somebody on another discussion thread tried to debunk the possibility that any sailors could blame TEPCO and radiation for their cancers. I went something like this.
50 out of 5000 sailorsd is one percent, (the average numbers on a Nuclear carrier).
Percentage of getting cancer is greater than that.
So they just have normal cancer rates. Case closed.
There is no face palm large enough …
No, there isn’t a face palm large enough for more of your bone headed tripe. The TITLE OF YOUR CITE:
My emphasis, underlined since you are so clueless. No wonder most folks have abandoned even pointing and making fun of you in the global warming thread.
First paragraph:
That was the argument some fuckhead was presenting. That you find it clueless means we agree. They are a fuckhead with out a clue.
Ha ha ha ha. Shit dude, that was fucking great. I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. Comedy fucking gold!
Science and stuff. Awesome.
It’s a big ball of timey-wimey, sciency-wiency stuff.
With no more information that this, that argument would be valid.
This reminds me of the panic over fantasy roleplaying games “causing” suicides among teenagers. The smoking gun? Three! Three teenagers who played D&D had committed suicide! The trouble is that so many millions of teenagers were playing that game, that three suicides is vastly below the expected rate! What they’d unintentionally demonstrated (if their data had been complete) was that D&D was immensely effective at preventing teen suicide!
Eh, correlation != causation. After all, it could just be that people who play D&D naturally are more imaginative, and this makes them better in every conceivable way to normal humans.
Fukkin’ White Dragons, bitches.
Racist.
Are you implying that D&D players are into beastiality ? :mad:
You should hear me at parties. I’m much better in person. especially with the sarcasm, which is hard to convey typing and shit like that.
Certainly true. However, correlation with a lack of any other correlation is the definition of causation.
You’re right, of course, that some other correlation is possible. That’s very often the case, which is why controlled experiments are so important (and difficult.)
Still, love a duck! If it were only true! (That only three D&D players have ever committed suicide.) It would certainly be incredibly suggestive of some underlying cause-and-effect.
