    Just saw this on the news. Looks bad. They say it was equal to about 21 tons of TNT. Government has declared marshall law in the area.

    Hope it wasn't a defective part made in America.

    That plant isn't by the factory making knockoff Range Rovers is it? Might be sabotage if so.

    rivermans pic shows a parking lot full of the same car model and color. Massive castrophe due to fuel from them and pollution from all the chems burming. The Chinese declared martial law but the count on lost lives and enviornment impact had not been revealed.

    I don't think those cars are the Range Rover copies I was talking about but if they are....haha, called it.

    Wonder if it is the same company.
