I work for Bob Murray in his only owned UMWA represented mine. While I think he done everything he possible could have to get those men out, I can't understand why that mining permit was approved. Mining between two longwalled sections with that much cover over your head is suicide.You go in your basement and start knocking out support pillars and the house will come crashing down. That plan should have never been approved.
