Colombian takes BP to court over torture and kidnapping

1. As someone who lives on the Gulf Coast, I hate BP

However, "The British law firm is not accusing BP of direct involvement in Torres’ abduction. But for having failed to take preventative measurements against paramilitary activity in its working area."

Hell, their own government with all their military spending can't stop paramilitary activity in the country, it seems a bit of a stretch to blame BP. BP would have to create their own private militia to do that, not something I'd want to see ever.

OTOH, I despise BP so I hope they lose.
