A Gulf Tradition: Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival Video

This year, the Shrimp and Petroleum Festival celebrated its 75th anniversary in Morgan City, Louisiana. While the pairing may seem strange, the event is a tradition in the Gulf and drew great numbers in 2010 with help from a BP sponsorship. "We had attendance of about 150,000 [last year] ... and it's got be that and more this year," said the event's executive director Lee Delaune.

When one lies, they ...
When one lies, they try just as hard to continue supporting those lies. If you were so honest, you wouldn't need these videos. BP oil continues to gush from the sea floor, but they tried to hide it with 1.84 million gallons of a? well known carcinogenic chemical called COREXIT, that breaks up the oil and causes it to sink to the ocean floor. BP, you are the epitome of greed, lying, and environmental devastation. Take my thumbs down message and stick it in your ass.

Wow. By your logic, BP is a good company because your father works there? It doesn't matter how hard people work. I'm sure Hitler worked really hard at genocide, but that doesn't make the Holocaust okay!?

Your corrupt and ...
Your corrupt and deceptive should be entirely out of business in a so called perfect world. If you honestly beared your true responsibility of actually cleaning up the oil and not use corexit/poison, not? cover the oil on that is now buried on the beaches, and spew lies about the oil being gone, then you would be out of business. You suck and I hope that your company goes down in flames as it should rightly do so.

Don't eat the corexit tainted? seafood.
