Coal miners and miners' wives stand guard at the entrance to a Massey mountaintop mine as they shout back at a group of anti-mountaintop removal protesters who marched to the entrance to demand a stop to mountaintop removal mining. Coal proponents say America needs mountaintop removal to keep their lights on, and that West Viriginia needs it for the jobs. The debate over mountaintop removal has divided towns and made tensions high in what some have compared to as a civil war.
