  2. I felt sorry for people living there, so unfortunately it happened in America, if it'd have happened in Russia, you guys would get much more media attention.

  3. Way too many derailing's happening, they should inspect and modernize the tracks, because they are old AF.

  4. What chemicals was the train carrying?

  5. Why is there a 15sec ad for 2 min video that calls itself news?

  6. Everyone discuss the ball, but here second Chernobyl/fukushima

  10. They poisoned everything around their.
    Hire Erin Brocovich the lawyer.
    Don t drink or use the water or breath air .

  19. The wicked were so quick to say hey put on a mask go in your house now look at them!! They know they can't benefit from this which is why that they don't care people suffer and die these Wicked people never cared about People's Health it was always about empowering themselves and enriching themselves.

    Jesus Christ warned about evil false gods like this wolves in sheep's clothing in Matthew 23.

    Jesus Christ is the way of Salvation people this current unlawful regime is out to literally hurt and kill people which is why they're seeking to distract people with these things being shot in the Sky What's happening in Ukraine they want you to get distracted from the evil that they are doing they want you to be in fear they don't want you to be aware.

    Turn to Jesus Christ people

  20. "The controlled explosion" nah my car engine is a controlled explosion, that's just a massive chemical fire.

  21. Biden refused FEMA for Ohio!

  22. This will spread even further into the USA! This is killing Democrats too!!! Wake up !!!!

  23. Due to the blowing up of the Nord Stream pipeline, now you will get something back from God, "dear" Americans!

  24. Why did it take you so long to report this?

  25. Well at least sum comments sections on this are open

  26. That’s ridiculous!! The chemicals may not have been hazardous enough before the train derailed… but BURNING THEM TO GET RID IF THE SPILL DEFINITELY CREATED FAR WORSE CHEMICALS IN THE PROCESS!!!

  27. What a Joke.

    No independent testing, Animals dying, Residents say it smells like a chemical stew, & Gov. DeWine says it safe to return….but…but just don't drink the water.

  28. Why aren't there "daily maps" on the news, showing everybody, ( warning us ), what direction, the pollution is headed in? Where is the poison headed? How many different directions? ……. But, no. The government is trying to get people to drink the water, instead?

  29. Trump's EPA Chief de-regulated Rail Transportation via the Fast Act, so now safety is cut, train wreck, releases of deadly and cancerous fumes in Trump Country.

    Holy Cow GQPers, you really know how to own the Libs.

    Now they can struggle to suck air with scarred lungs, grow a tumor, and DIE!

  34. Chinese air balloon was a distraction from this story… Hm… Stay safe everyone living around there. Don't think it's ok. Either leave the area with your family or at least take precautions to protect yourself from drinking water and the air you breathe in. I hope everything goes well for you. πŸ™

  35. There's a warning of 100 miles radius around the explosion area.
    Animals anywhere near have been dieing.

    Water supplies around the areas are contaminated with chemicals.
    The air quality is not safe. If you have to evacuate an area then it's not safe.
    News reporters have been arrested for covering this story.
    Lookup area cloud photos of this explosion it'll show you how bad it actually is.
    There is hundreds of video, photos, and tests done by both organizations, groups, reporters, and civilians backing these facts.

  36. And Buttigieg is blaming the Trump administration for this???? The mind just boggles!

  37. justice for targeted individuals !!!!!

  39. Heard on Lars Larson show the union workers expressed concern on size of the load, saying it was much more than they usually transport on the direct route.

  40. It’s funny that this happened two weeks ago but the US mainstream medias were all focusing on a Chinese balloon at the time instead of this…
