Dow sues Bhopal survivors for protesting
Dow Chemical is suing Bhopal survivors who protested the company's role
in
one of the worst environmental disaster in history. These guys are more
evil than Darth frigging Vader.
On December 2nd a peaceful march of 200 women survivors from Bhopal
delivered toxic waste from the abandoned Carbide factory back to Dow's
Indian headquarters in Bombay with the demand that Dow take
responsibility
for the disaster and clean up the site. Dow obviously has other ideas
because they are suing survivors for about US$10,000 for "loss of
work". That's US$10,000 compensation demanded for a two hour peaceful
protest where only one Dow employee briefly ventured out of the Mumbai
corporate business park to meet the women protestors.

And yeah, I realise Dow aren't "new" contenders for the title, but surely this pushes them over the line... |
