its all over the news over here in the states...

12 of the 13 passed away...

i felt sick thismorning whenever relative had been told that all of them were alive, they celebrated, then 2 hours later they were told all but one had died

[Terry]

just got in from badminton and watched it on the news. i'd feel sick if that was me and i'd been told they were alive just to be ripped to pieces 2 hours later.

[Matt]

its absolute bs that those poor families were told that they were alive, whoever spread that false rumor should be fired from their job

[Steve]

from what i heard it was a mixup at the 911 call centre, they got it the wrong way around :/

first thing some families said... "we're gonna sue"

bloody typical

[ShArP]

i don't think they should sue...

some people make mistakes...

they are poor, uneducated miners, they have no benifits, no life insurance, its like working at mcdonalds but in a cave... i would sue too in this situation, or somewhat ask for money, cause they now have no income.

[Steve]

they are suing because of the mixup, not because of the mine collapsing. sry but if that is the first thing that comes into their mind, then they dont care for the person they have just lost.

Must be terrible to be closed in like that! Hope they get out of there saftly

you obviously did not read it, 12 of the 13 miners died..

[SilentTrigger]
