Ban all coal .. ban fossil fuels
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CLEAN COAL
It's really really really real real real hard to show sympathy for some cry baby who can't go into the ground dig up this poison and pollute the fucking air for the rest of us.
These Coal Miner's know damn well that what they're doing is a dead end industry.
Silica & coal dust are causing horrible damage to coal miners.
Is there also silica dust on the coal piles? And on railroad cars filled with coal traveling around the country?
Must not have washed that coal clean enough! Trump is an idiot!
