Re: Political Toons
Sort of disagree, that is BASE jumping kit and the lowest current record for a sucessful BASE jump (one that didn't end in a splat) is 95 ft. So if you keep yourself on the 9th floor or higher.....

Incorrect. Remember how people moched Michelle bachman for fostering kids despite having no kids of her own. The record of Pro-life eople fostering and adoption is pretty good its just that the Majority of kids in the system are not eligible for adoption.

Re: Political Toons
If I had been a child in the foster system and ended up in the Bachman household, that would have been damaging to me. Just because they profess their faith doesn't make them good foster parents. Ewww. Take me back to the state group home. A child already damaged doesn't need to be shepherded by cra-cra.Suranis wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 6:30 amIncorrect.
