    Maybe a HUUUGGGGEEEE sink hole will open up and texas will just disappear. This is what’s best for the planet.

    it’s a message from god that he is displeased with us.

    (hey turnabout is fair play. if hurricanes and tornadoes are punishment for gays, porn, and sodomy this earthquake is punishment for electing the antichrist.)

      No, it’s from disposal of the water that’s produced alongside the oil. When you inject water into deep formations, it causes earthquakes.

        That’s a roundabout way of saying “yes, fracking”.

        You wouldn’t need to dispose of the water this way if you weren’t fracking in the first place.
