It's not just Flint that's poisoned.

I saw a black and white movie, maybe Twilight Zone?? About a young guy falls in love with young girl, he has two brothers whom did not approve and argued about her. Turns out they were from another planet here to take over and they poisoned the water supply to this local town!
Think it not possible... make the water BITTER?

It's not just Flint that's poisoned.

In Flint, Mich., testing has found lead levels of more than 5 micrograms per deciliter of blood in 4 percent of that city’s children. The result is national outrage.
In neighborhoods of New Orleans and Boston, New York and Baltimore, across the country in urban pockets much the same size as Flint, those same levels are regularly found in up to 25 percent of children.

“That hasn’t been getting the same kind of attention,” says Howard Mielke, a professor in the department of pharmacology of Tulane University whose research includes mapping lead blood levels across urban populations. “Maybe what’s happening in Flint will shine a spotlight on the fact that lead risk is everywhere.”
Mielke and other experts agree that the outrage over Flint is well warranted. The fact that the problem was created by one government entity and then ignored by several others makes it particularly heinous, they say. But they would also like to see some of the same call to action for other neighborhoods where Flint-like levels of exposure are the norm.
“I think it’s perfectly appropriate to rally around Flint,” says Philip Landrigan, a pediatrician and dean for global health at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York. “But people need to realize that Flint is not an isolated example and there are places that are even worse. It’s happening all over the country and it’s tightly tied to race, ethnicity and economic circumstances.”
Then he starts ticking off locations: “Central Harlem. Bushwick. Roxbury in Boston. Baltimore is probably the worst. New Orleans, another city that has lead paint and poorly maintained housing.”

Spring,

Thanks for posting this. We do not want fluoride in our public water supply.
Your article may help. The required studies by the state on the fluoride are not available or haven't been done.  See the extensive research on the web site compiled by local group on how fluoride and lead levels correlate...

Fluoride and Lead

When fluoride is added to a municipal water system that is already being treated with chloramine, lead-levels in that water system can increase by up to 800-900% (compared to lead levels for water treated with chloramine alone.) [This impact of the combined additives of chloramine and fluoride to water actually can result in lead levels (at the tap) measured as high as 900 ppb – which is 6,000% of the current EPA hazard level for lead in water (of 15 ppb.)]*

Secure Arkansas wants to send out a heartfelt “thank you” to all the noble water operators who have stood up against forced water fluoridation. These men of such sincere integrity need to be saluted, and the people of Arkansas should stand up and support their efforts to prevent poison from being intentionally dumped in our drinking water.

Meant to make the above reply about the LEAD AND fluoride link clearer.
See Lead/Fluoride correlation in the article quoted above.
