  1. What an absolute tragedy. They lost their lives trying to rescue their dog and each other. My most sincere condolences to all families and friends of the deceased. 💔

  2. The mom who was interviewed was logical and well spoken - she feels bad for the kids having to face the consequences of his mom. The son seems like a sweet kid.

  3.  @tupacwallace3113  It's rather ironic that some vegans have no compassion or empathy for fellow human beings who have differing views. We're all animals. It is in our DNA to want to eat meat. That's how humans survived and evolved. Everyone has choices and we all have different convictions. It's really best if we understand and accept each other rather than wishing harm on each other.

  6.  @glennlyons2178  That would be so terrifying. What a completely helpless feeling. 💔 I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

  7. Those poor children. Hopefully, they will receive all the proper love, therapy, and support that they need in order to sort through all of that trauma. Heartbreaking.💔 Thankfully, they are okay. The mom, on the other hand, is completely self-absorbed. To leave her children like that is totally unconscionable. Sick.

  8. ​ @TuckerSP2011 It might seem like it's getting sicker by the day, but that's because we have the internet and YouTube. In years past, we would have only known what was happening in our area. Believe it or not, there has never been a safer time in history. If you look up the statistics, you'll be surprised.

  9. ​ @u4zaEDITS Oh my gosh! Same here. I was a devout believer for decades until I went on a deep dive of the Bible in hopes of learning even more. Well, I sure did. I finally realized that all religions are man made. While humans were evolving, they were trying to make sense of the world around us - thunder, lightening, rain, sun, moon, wind, etc. Now everything makes perfect sense.

  10. Can you imagine leaving your dog, though? I couldn't do that.

  11. That's low.

  12.  @Floridamancan  Someone in the comment section explained that the dog took off, so one of them went after him. Then the dog fell in the hole and the rescue attempt ensued.

  13.  @ericabarca5871   We don't know if that played a part here. In fact, I'd bet it didn't. The comment below explaining that aggravated assault carries the same weight and is easier to prosecute in Texas seems much more likely.

  14.  @DARE2DREAMTYNU  Nope. As others above have explained, aggravated assault is easier to prosecute aggravated assault in some states, and it can actually carry a heavier sentence. If you looked at 100 cases, you'd see that color plays no part in them. Each case should be looked at individually as there are many factors to consider - criminal history, evidence, judge, jury, attorneys, plea...

  15. ​ @MarioCañez-v1t Humans have survived on meat for thousands of years. That's how you're here. I'm not a meat eater myself, but it is in our DNA.

  16. No one would make it very far if there was a pursuit in rush hour traffic in San Francisco.

  17. Well, GOD didn't help, so it's a good thing there is medical help.

  18. ​@user-gu8ic3eb1x That actually sounds like a better wish for the family - hoping there is "justice".

  19.  @mmes307ify  Horrific. A total nightmare. 💔

  20.  @Rikimkigsck  It's compassion. If you were raised in a hunting household, you might think differently. We all come from different backgrounds and don't all share the same convictions.

  21.  mikedavis8008  That's a heartless way to look at it. We evolved due to eating meat, so it's taking some time to turn that around. It's a process.

  22. The link for the article about the resignation is in the description box.
