I'm all for any safe, clean way to make power ,but even one major accident is to many, and nothing is full proof. Besides what happens with all the spent fuel? We have to bury it in caves and hope it doesn't leak out for the next 10,000 years.
Like I said there's a trade off for everything ,and I'm not sure that the pluses to nuclear out weigh the minuses.

First off, my original post was intended for the thread and was not directed at you. I thought the title of the facebook group was funny.
Secondly, I never called you, specifically, an idiot. If you made that assumption, that's your issue

Besides, being afraid of nuclear power and having concerns about nuclear power are two different things. The facebook group focuses on the former, not the latter.
Thirdly, as far as what happens to the spent fuel, there are many in here who could answer that in depth, as well as provide insight as to exactly how "dangerous" the stuff really is.
Have a good day
