There's an old saying:
"If you play with fire, you get burned."
Examples of this would be FUKUSHIMA'S runaway melted cores from Reactors 1,2,3 and the 'open air' Fuel Pool at what's left of the building for Reactor 4.
Why are there NO 'CURRENT' PHOTOS of Oyster Creek or any of the other threatened Nuclear Plants?
None that I've seen anyway. hmm…?

Gas fires can burn for days near nuclear plants but the average citizen can't get on an airplane with being x rayed or molested….

A cover up is on the way. But they learned about releasing doctored photos during fukushima. Now they don't release any

man that sounds familiar.

So are there barricades preventing people from taking pictures of the plant at least from ground level? I think it's odd nobody is releasing these images. Is the Jersey area without cell service? Major cover-up.

This could be a repost..

The issue of prepping.
(Prepping is not hording..it is the gathering of useful materials…and the educating oneself and others to apply).
The key word preparedness.
