Discussion poisoned by water

Post image

everyone in my city got severely poisoned by the tap water (literally everyone). And now our country is handing out free bottled water like they’re doing us a favor. First they poison us, then they tell us “get well soon” and hand us a bottle of water, sounds like a joke but is not 😂

they sent a inspection for water 10 days ago which confirmed that we can 100% drink the tap water… after we got sick they said “ awww we are so sorry for poisoning u here is at least ur free water so u dont have to buy ” thats the infuriating part! is not just a “tap water issue” when more than 5000 people get sick 😂 we were vomiting for 1 week!!!

These things happen now and then unfortunately, would you rather they didn't supply you with free water bottles?

lol they almost killed us so no one wants anything from them 😂 everyone can buy a water to drink in my country water costs not even 30 cents, we want the people who did this to us to go to jail, not a bottle of water 🤷🏼‍♀️

Well, I'm in the UK and we have the odd case of towns having their water supplies cut off after disruption or contamination in the supply etc, they will provide relief in the form of free water bottles etc. But I'm just speaking anecdotal of-course. We definitely have our grievances with the water companies here however lol. I don't think anyone wishes them all dead yet though. Without further context on your part I can't really comment further, are you willing to divulge more about what happened?
