And as if enough hasn't happened in Flint, today, Anonymous has released a Snyder related statement

Just saw it on the local news. They are calling for Snyder's arrest. I don't know how to post a video, but if anyone can find this, please post it.

I'll tell you what, this has been a breathtaking day in my beloved home town.

I was born in Detroit -- Yup! IN Detroit. Cooley High Class of 1966. So I weep alongside you about the utter lunacy in Michigan now.

Gotta get out the vote out to turn this around. Won't do much good in the state house or senate. But that's what we have to do to turn the corner.

Snyder is a nightmare.

Just casually, and going back years when he ran 'The Flint Voice' underground newspaper. I know him well enough to know that he is actually a very sweet guy.

There are people here who still hate him for making 'Roger and Me', but boo hoo hoo. He was right.

reports on the flint crisis back in october/november, governor snyder took over the local government of flint and sent in an appointed (not elected) "environmental"/city "manager" to govern the city.

snyder and his puppets are the criminals who poisoned the 100,000 residents (including >8,000 children under the age of 6) of flint and contaminated the city with toxic levels of lead that is everywhere - and not just in the water.

governor snyder knowingly and intentionally poisoned the people of flint for nearly 2 years. even when alarms and proof were presented to him, he and denied all of it. his motive was money.

and, when snyder finally began his pathetic and insulting attempt to portray himself as doing something - it was all for p.r. seriously, a gallon of water and perhaps a water filter that could be picked up at a fire station and 7 national guardsmen assigned to deliver the water to the fire stations - in a city of 100,000 citizens?

the people of flint will be paying with the rest of their lives for snyder's greed and corruption.

He is finally back with his family. And, of course, the $80,000,000 more that President Obama is sending our way. AND, Snyder notified that he is being called before a House committee. It's been a very eventful day.
