Instead of helping fix their barn, Goyette-Wiggins says the Save the Children Convoy left her family with thousands of dollars in unpaid bills.

“Hydro outstanding is over $3,000, not to mention damages, broken equipment, the clean-up, broken fruit trees and so much more,” Goyette-Wiggins told PressProgress.

She embraced these fetic sacks of gangrenous anal sphincters and got exactly what she deserved.

Zero sympathy. Absolutely zero.

Wow it took the whole article to mention that they dumped their septic tanks out into the yard? I would’ve led with that.

Right? Why wasn't that the headline?

That was their #2 choice.

How many children did they save though?

I know I don't have to say this in present company, but with these kinds of people, it's always projection. Like it can't not be projection. I actually just learned there is a term for it: reaction formation.

Put another way, we can be pretty sure these people are dangerous for children. Very dangerous.

Any of those peoples kids with any common sense have been saved by getting far away from all of those people.

Is there a GoFundMe?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago

If they annoyed everyone in the area, became a public nuisance for a year, and left behind a big mess, well that is a small price to pay for the nation's children finally being saved.

Breaking news: shitty people did shitty things.

I really like that site because it doesn't have a bunch of obstructive pop-ups, ads and auto playing videos.

Literally just a text article with minimal intrusion. Very rare these days
