      Their thoughts and prayers were offset by The San Francisco Gay Librul Agenda! God is PUNISHING those Texas shitkickers because AND ONLY BECAUSE there is Gay in Sanfransisco Libruland!

      I feel sorry for the kids who are suffering, but the parents caused this. Someone might argue allowing this to happen is child abuse.
