High levels of radioactive plutonium detected in San Francisco's Hunters Point I live within ten miles of this place, just a short ride on the BART train, and the military was so kind to inform the public after the fact. In these days of money and the guns doing all the talking worth listening to, this is as much warning as people are going to get, and yet another reason millionaires are fleeing the country. They had to start warning people, because you can't hide the symptoms.
Aren't they trying to develop that place? The article says plutonium is in the air, not just the ground. If they try to clean it up it will spread the plutonium around.
It's less than a mile from the Tourist Center, and I'm sure the military informed them at the last minute, thanks to Donald Duck's support for California. For all I know, they're doing the same in other states, just to appease our glorious leader. San Fran wanted the land back, so they gave it back to them.
The radioactivity from the nuclear tests in the Nevada deserts have spread to the majority of central US as shown by this chart. It is important that american citizens hold their government accountable and ensure high safety standards for themselves, and reduce the influence of the stratocratic elements in their government to ensure people friendly policies.
