the island of lesbos

Times are hard for the Island of Lesbos.

Yesterday I saw two women in the Target parking lot, one holding a baby girl and a little boy was walking with them. The baby was only wearing a shirt and a diaper even though it was cold, and when they got in their car the woman in the front passenger seat didn't put the baby in a car seat, they drove away holding her on her lap! I called 911 and gave them the license plate number. I'm still thinking about those kids. I'm upset too about the 400+ kids from the LDS sect who are in state custody. That's so incredibly traumatic for them! Why weren't they allowed to stay where they live with their mothers while the men in the sect were taken into custody, when the men were the ones who were allegedly doing all the bad stuff? When I am queen I won't let that stuff happen.
