If people knew the truth they might have some grasp on what to do.
People don't know the truth. A lot of people don't want anything to be wrong
with Clyde, Ohio. Nothing's wrong with our town, it's fine. Is it?
the meeting makes me feel better about what they are doing looking into
and I feel really bad for the kids. To have a child
sick like that is just horrible.
I don't know what I'd do if I lost child. I feel like they were on the
right path to get things started to get things going and really come out
with the truth, what's really going on around here and not to hide anything
from us.
Her family for her...
from the...somewhere in vicinity of four miles
My kids went there all the time...
...I'm concerned first because we need to find answers.
Second, I feel angry because of this people hiding things
Whirlpool and...being betrayed is a third thing. Our own government
betrayed us. Those are basically
three things. I think a lot in here feel the same way
it's just the way that people wanna work together to
find and find answers. Tonight I think this is a big step
in the you know the biggest turnout. I've been to all the press conferences
we've ever had and these people here care enough to be involved
and I think it's something that's good because a lot of people want to do something
I feel like if
this is where all this is coming from that they should step up and do what's
right for the community
and if they value people, value their jobs and their lifestyle here
they should do something about it. They should step up to the plate and say
yes we're responsible. To get it cleared up the best that they can
just start from there, start fresh. Whoever is responsible
we're not saying it's Whirlpool's
responsibility just whoever if it's there we just want it gone.
...whose gotta be about the money who is going to pay for it?
I want it tested and I want it gone.
The recent testing is Whirlpool and if I had to answer the question based on knowing it is Whirlpool
and they could do something about it. These people have made you your millions
these people made you your money and you're just gonna kill them?
that's my biggest comment. People don't understand that these people work for them and they're
the ones that make them go.
They're the people that make these washing machines. If it wasn't for these people
you wouldn't be in business. I'm very angry at the fact that
(um) the executive doesn't even want to make one comment,
that he is sorry, that he is remorseful for about anything and
change what they do. It's interesting (um) I've been
kinda been with investigation ever since 2005 when Kole was diagnosed and I remember one thing
that bothered me
you know Scott Taylor did a story
and he was across the street just filming Whirlpool and the security guard drove
across street on to another person property and said you can't film Whirlpool
and that bothers me enough to to know that Scott Taylor said what are you going to
arrest me?
You have no right to be here either and it was something back then why were they
concerned about somebody filming Whirlpool?
So, there's a lot of things that haven't been disclosed and I think that people need to know
to know the truth.
....
I mean we've been following it on the news
but haven't talked to anybody.
Well I'm glad they're looking into things I have cancer
diagnosed since 2009 and I've had a spleen removed.
So (um) I'm in remission right now but
you know they said anything come back so
We less than a half-mile, we live within half a half-mile
of Whirlpool
...definitely the plant.
A couple years ago with liver cancer and we don't know
that could have something to do with this they found out
what she did found out she had it she was at stage four
four we had been living at the....
where we lived for two years and she died a couple years ago.
We don't know where it came from. Why
does Clyde have such a high rate of cancer? and it's not just kids
I know just look around the room tonight there is some people making comments
that had cancer and they didn't want to disclose that and you know it's something that I
think
if look at the whole picture we got problems and we need to find answers.
