Bunch Of Hick Nobodies Sue For Toxic-Waste Exposure

SHREWSBURY, WV—A bunch of local, piss-ant, hick nobodies filed a lawsuit against the Allegheny Electric Cooperative Monday, alleging that the company exposed residents to dangerous levels of mercury. “Just about everybody on the Kanawha [River] knows someone that’s sick or died,” some toothless rube told reporters. “It’s all the waste they dump out the power plant. You can see it in the water, like liquid silver. We’re not going to sit here and take it. No sir.” According to Allegheny spokesman Thomas Gill, the bumpkins were somehow able to scrape together enough moonshine money “to get theyselves one of them fancy, big-city lawyers.”
