No, I find it both very sad and also abusive.
I posted four times to make a point, the same way that I would look at my watch to see how soon it took a liberal idiot to use a phrase like “peace and justice” in any conversation.

Romantic Male? We should be a protected minority! :)

...said Sarah Skigen, natural resources associate for the town of Hilton Head Island and a turtle patrol volunteer.

You know, we only have so much time on this earth... Turtle Patrol? Really?

An estimated 60 baby sea turtles emerged from a nearby nest a short time later and became disoriented by the light

"Estimated" by whom? The Turtle Patrol lady? I suspect she may have an agenda that could lead her to exaggerate this number.

How the hell did these turtles, as a species, survive this long if they can't find the ocean from the beach?

And somebody who lights things on fire and then leaves is as dopey as a wandering turtle baby.

I was hoping the rabbit I’m looking for will be beyond wounded.
