A 6.2 earthquake hit central Italy overnite and a earthquake hit the country formerly known as Burma. Will they try to blame it on global warming?

EVERY... SINGLE... DISASTER. Never fails. Can't even wait for the bodies to get cold before turning it into politics. This thread is even worse than most because they made no attempt to link to a story. Politics was the sole purpose when it was created.

The earthquake in Italy and the 39 dead, that's not important, they're just evil white people, they deserve it as punishment for The Crusades and The Slave Trade

Now Burma is a non-evil white hellhole, we'll have George Clooney, Bono and the rest of the SJW all doing Public Appeals for us evil white people to do whatever we can to help the victims of the earthquake.

The Leftists will concentrate on the Burma earthquake instead, a Third World nation, full of non-evil white people.

Nobody cares about Italy as Italy has been promised to millions of Muslim savages and Sub-Saharan African savages, you know to atone for The Crusades and The White Slave Trade

With that I say, that both the Italian and Burmese earthquakes are terrible, the loss of life terrible and we Christians should pray for all of the people affected and hope that the death toll doesn't rise to much, but for those who have departed this world, we hope that they're now in Our Lord's Beautiful Kingdom.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

It's Bush's fault.

 

[saintmichaeldefendthem]

It's Bush's fault.

He is the Decider after all.

 

[Borillar]

I sense the hand of Hillary behind this.

 

[Borillar]

It was actually Obama's fault. The earthquakes were caused by the butterfly effect of one of Obama's golf balls falling in the hole.

No, they'll blame it on something more reasonable like its Gods wrath for gays allowed to exist

You do realize your "jokes" aren't jokes, right? There is nothing more cringe inducing than an unfunny person trying to be funny. Don't you proof read your shit before posting?

Death toll rises to 120 in Italy earthquake...

Italy earthquake: Death toll rises to at least 120
Wed, 24 Aug 2016 - At least 120 people have been killed and more than 360 injured in a 6.2-magnitude quake in central Italy, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi says.

The magnitude-6.2 quake struck at 03:36 (01:36 GMT), 100km (65 miles) north-east of Rome, not far from Perugia. Eighty-six of the dead were in the historic town of Amatrice, where the mayor said three-quarters of the town was destroyed, and in nearby Accumoli. Many people are still believed to be buried under rubble. Rescue teams are using heavy lifting equipment and their bare hands as they continue to search for survivors after nightfall.

There were cheers in the village of Pescara del Tronto when an eight-year-old girl was pulled alive from the rubble after being trapped for 17 hours. "This is not a final toll," Mr Renzi warned as he gave the latest figures on a visit to the area. He had earlier paid tribute to the volunteers and civil defence officials who had rushed to the scene in the middle of the night and used their bare hands to dig for survivors. He promised "no family, no city, no hamlet will be left behind".

The tremor was felt across Italy, from Bologna in the north to Naples in the south. There have been dozens of aftershocks. Hardest hit were the small towns and villages in the mountainous area where the regions of Umbria, Lazio and Le Marche meet. As well as the 86 dead in two towns of Amatrice and Accumoli, there are 34 people known to have been killed in Le Marche province, including in the neighbouring villages of Arquata del Tronto and Pescara del Tronto.

* Health minister Beatrice Lorenzin said there were many children among the dead
* In Amatrice the missing include three nuns and four guests at their convent
* In Accumoli the dead include a mother, father and their two young sons; rescuers had heard the screams of the mother and one of the children and had frantically tried to reach them in time, Italian media reported
* Mayor Stefano Petrucci told Ansa that not a house in the town was fit for habitation, and they would have to set up tents to house everyone
* Almost all houses in Pescara del Tronto have collapsed, the local mayor said
* In Arquata, a grandmother saved her two grandchildren, aged four and seven, by pulling them under a bed with her
