The ‘gasoducto’ is a planned 92-mile natural gas pipeline, running from the southwestern coast of the island to the north. It cuts across over 200 bodies of water (from which drinking water is produced) and at least a thousand acres of forestland and farmland, endangering at least 200,000 nearby residents. For comparison, the island has a population of less than 4 million people. Governor Fortuno and his comprador (sellout) state proposed this pipeline with the full support of its u.s. colonizer, by way of the u.s. Army Corps of Engineers. The pipeline is said to be energy efficient, lowering energy costs on the island, but that has not been proven to be factual by either independent or UPR (Universidad de Puerto Rico) scientists. The pipeline itself is expected to cost upwards of 800 million to one billion dollars. Polls have shown that an overwhelming majority of the population (70%) opposes the building of “el tubo de la muerte” (the tube of death). In fact, while it is false that it will substantially decrease energy costs, it is more importantly an ecological and human disaster, as the pipeline would run across fault lines and tsunami danger areas. Puerto Rico gets almost all of its energy from outside the nation and this ‘gasoducto’ would guarantee the island’s dependency on outside energy. This would benefit u.s. energy interests, as it guarantees them a permanent stake in Puerto Rico’s energy issues. This shows that the comprador colonial government does not care for the safety and well-being of the Puerto Rican people. It is more interested in saving a couple of dimes and providing profits for u.s. (and British) energy companies. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/recent-news/43051-el-tubo-de-la-muertethe-pipeline-of-death-puerto-ricos-via-verdeThe ‘gasoducto’ is a planned 92-mile natural gas pipeline, running from... more

There are a number of crafty crafters who build replica guns from movies and games, however this gun is extra special. Not only does it light up for the different portal effect but the gun is for sale in a charity auction. Shamefully Portal tech is yet to be invented, booo.
