My Response to the Friends of Coal License Plates

Here in Kentucky it's common to see cars with specialized "Friends of Coal" license plates.

Today alone I saw a half a dozen while driving around.

Here's my message for "Friends of Coal" people:

If you're such a great friend to coal then go work in a coal mine until you get black lung and die.

Or better yet, stay down in the mine long enough for that shit to just cave in on you.

Wait, the best idea really, you love coal so much, then just have a damn cookout and call it day!

Clean energy is a reality; it's more attainable now than ever. It's sweeping across this country as an energized movement and being embraced by many.

There are better ways than raping our Earth to her core to harvest energy.

There are better ways than letting coal miners get sick after years of work in the mines.

There are better ways than shaking the ground, the foundation below our feet.

There are better ways than contaminating the water, land and air.

There are better ways than stripping mountains of their tops.
