“The effects of radiation do not come to people that are happy and laughing. They come to people that are weak-spirited, that brood and fret.”

so skip happily into a nukular death zone and you will survive?

They should have told that to the earless bunny...

wtf? I ain't never.

Apparently so, according to "Dr" Shunichi Yamashita, from the Atomic Bomb Research Institute. He’s the radiological health safety risk management adviser for the prefecture.
He says 100 mSv/yr OK for pregnant moms...as long as they don't worry their pretty little heads about it.

That site is kind of hard figure out

I ain't never, neither!
Just when ya think you've heard it all, some ass-hat
(WITH A DEGREE IN MEDICINE! LOL) comes up with something even more bizarre.

The sad thing is, a lot of under-educated people will believe that, til they give birth to footballs with 4 eyes and half a nose.

I don't have any trouble with it...don't like the layout, tho.

Absolutely fucking unbelievable.I hope nobody believes this although we all know there will be some that do.
I have a friend in Tokyo and she tells me that they are saying everything is fine. I show her all the articles I find and she doesn't pay it any mind.I'm very scared for the people of Japan.

Yeah that's what I mean... I started reading the links on the side thinking it was the article, then I got confused and read below in the narrow grey box but even then it doesn't seem like a full article (and choppy English?).

Great now all the emo kids are gonna get cancer

But its ene news an enviro fundie site don't believe anything on it they constantly make alarming headlines then when you read the article they quote they didn't even say that.

Interesting...
Nuclear Catastrophe in Japan “Not Equal to Chernobyl, But Way Worse”

Thomas Breuer, head of the Climate and Energy Unit for Greenpeace Germany and part of a field team of radiation monitors in Japan, notes that unlike Chernobyl, the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant is in a densely populated area.
“We warned the government that there are a lot of cities and villages outside the 20-kilometers evacuation zone where the radiation levels are so high that people need urgently to be evacuated, especially children and pregnant women, because they are the most vulnerable part of the population to radiation,” says Breuer.

I guess we all know this, but I'm glad the Greenpeace guy's truthfulness is actually being reported somewhere.

Blah, so no gas masks needed in the post apocalypse world? If this were true, S.T.A.L.K.E.R would have worn a smile on the surface, while fighting the nuclear mutants.

Thanks - I'll google, see what I come up with on the man they quoted...

Wow.

Nice... make the dying think its their own fault for not being happy enough... How delightfully evil.

CHEER UP EMO KID, YOU'RE ATTRACTING RADIATION

Well honestly for that lifestyle it'll GREATLY improve their overall image "Life sucks, I'm radiated, what's the point, emoemoemo"

While it is true that your state of mind does influence the chemicals that your brain produces, and can enhance or be a detriment to your health. It has no influence on what radiation or bullets will do to your body.

don't be such a negative vibe merchant, man

Looks like the 'direct quote' attributed to Shunichi Yamashita may be BS.

Only things I could find were the same direct quotes, no full articles or proof he said it. UC Berkeley picked it up, democracynow did, a couple of bloggers...
no proof tho.

Good! I feel better that maybe it was all











Hey! My first BS FLAG! On my own thread, no less!!
Shin this pit!!

I'm so sorry.
I have a degree in medicine and if you have a happy face on, bullets will bounce off of you.

Why? because he speaks the truth?

Turns out her "degree in medicine" is that she's a nurse!
Prolly the 2 yr ADN...what a tool.

She is a know nothing and her posts put people in danger. I have been fighting her in my small way by starting most of my posts with her scripted line of "I have a degree in medicine". A general practitioner has knowledge enough to recommend his patients to a specialist. Radiation poisoning is a very specialized field. She is a tool.

It is this kind of thinking that led to the modern day democrat. Idiots...the lot of them.

We're on the same page...
I'm a nurse, I know a lot of nurses, and never have I heard one say they have a 'degree in medicine.'
She's a dangerous psycho, misleading people like she does.
