So so sad - 5 confirmed dead at least 40 missing. Whole downtown of the small town completely destroyed. It was a runaway train - conductor was not on board and it was carrying oil - lots of it.

Holy shit, that is crazy.

So sad.

The people that I went out to dinner with last night had a theory that this was "planned" to garner more support for the pipeline by making people feel that freight isn't safe. I was disappointed that the whole thing turned into a conspiracy theory so quickly, without even taking a minute to think of the people who lost their lives or homes

It always amazes me how quickly the crazy theories start. It seems to happen after every disaster now (man made or natural). The Internet breeds that crap I guess.
