Im certainly glad I dont live in Texas! Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is defending a ruling he made that allows the state to withhold the exact location of facilities storing potentially-dangerous chemicals like ammonium nitrate. The compound caused the massive and deadly fireball at West Fertilizer Company in April 2013. Addressing reporters, Abbott said official confidentiality can help stop potential terrorists. But he also called the ruling a “win-win” since every single person in the state” can learn about “chemicals stored in any plant.” Abbott said citizens are free to drive around, and ask each facility whether they have the chemicals on hand. So, parents arent allowed to know if their children are in danger? WTF?
