That has nothing to do with them recognizing the kick and taking action.
Keep saying that if it makes you feel better. BP has 3 major incidents in the last 5 years that are a result of negligence/stupidity. I'm beginning to see a pattern.
The problem is if you keep letting rogue/irresponsible operators have major f-ups, then the whole industry (even very responsible operators) gets buried under a mountain of regulations and moratoriums.
How do you suggest preventing a single company from having major incident after major incident?

I'm sorry but why is the oil industry special in the deaths? Why aren't airlines, coal companies, quickie mart deaths viewed the same way?

Im not saying that BP is not at fault, they diffidently share some of the blame. This situation was cause by numerous things, the two main being. That one Transocean and BP did not follow industry guidelines and safe practice and and but peoples live at risk and cost lives. Second that the crew on the floor obviously were not doing there job/ paying attention. This situation is a two way street, each are equally accountable. However you only hear about one of these major frick ups.
