| 1261511 | 2012-02-27 18:33:00 | Regarding one of the more bizarre contradictions of this debate, well, more so the position taken by our mine rescue emergency response expert, Mr lets send em in to die campaigner. The tragedy isn't in the methedology of the resuce, that is merely the response to the tragedy. This incident was the result of a company failing to meet its responcibilities under the Health and Safety act. The same act that gets so much wrath put upon it by our campainger is a tool put in place that would have gone a long way to keeping all 29 miners safe and alive if it had been followed. Instead they pretended they were doing the right thing, meeting their obligations to do everything within their capabilities to provide a safe place of work, But all they did was send good people to their deaths. And here we have people that would attack both the rescue effort and the legislation that was put in place to prevent this very thing. |

Clearly the accident shouldn’t have happened in the first place, but that doesn’t excuse a botched rescue effort. Or more accurately No rescue effort. Aeroplanes shouldn’t have flown into the Twin Towers either but a few people had to think on their feet then and make things happen. I’m afraid Pike River was a shambles from Go to Whoa and it ain’t done yet. In the meantime you go back to writing your Manual on the safe handling of Space Junk. :) |

| 1261513 | 2012-02-27 23:19:00 | Robsonde - I worked in a deep coal mine (4000ft down) and I was a member of the rescue squad. We would have gone in as we did on many dangerous and life threatening occasions. Now I appreciate the arguments of the posters who are against the rescue squads going in and they are very valid but there was never an occasion when we had the slightest hesitationMaybe we should have. |
