Ted Cruz sends word from Cancun that he is hoping things work out for the turtles.

Meanwhile, in the planned murderhood death camps, thousands of innocent children were killed today.
Not a peep.

Any chance these Navy people could dump the Senate Post Turtle, Chicom Mitch, into those frigid waters?
To: Major Matt Mason
not sure that would work out, Major.
Turtles might get all offended over Mitch’s overt cultural appropriation.

Makes me proud to be a human.........Good job in saving the turtles....
To: blueplum
Why interfere with mother nature? I have nothing against the turtles, but sometimes gene pools need cleaning or populations need reduced.

I understand your point, but perhaps God gave human beings the ability to save other creatures for a reason. ???

sea turtles eat jellyfish during some point in their lifecycle so anything that eats those nasty little stinging buggers is worth rescuing. ;)

Texas has a Navy force that helps the people. NY City/DeBlasio-Cuomo had a Navy hospital ship, medical personnel, and navy staffed medical centers that WERE NOT USED by New York City (and people died because of it).
There is a difference between Texas and New York City/Governor/Mayor.

Hooray for them. Somebody that loves critters has a heart. Somebody that doesn’t love critters is heartless.

Do you help humans in car wrecks bleeding out or burning alive .....lord knows human gene pool needs do over...
What about dogs drowning in broken ice ....
Or horse in the road...
That's a twofer....clean gene pool of the stupid horse and that stupid family in the minivan that hits the stupid needs genetic re-engineering horse
Darwin jokes and gene pool cleaning are a hoot unless it's your own
That applies to me too ...I ain't perfect
Bam! ......do the right thing....get those genes purged!
