Right said!

It’s a great answer that should be said more often: Your insistence on exclusive adherence to (supposed) Christian values disrespects and tramples on my differing values.

Man buys house.

Along with his family, he finds out the history of the house and the people who lived there.

In that history is contained some of his family’s origin story, which he had no idea about prior to buying the house: his family antecedents were enslaved by the house’s owners prior to the U.S. Civil War.

Happenstance? Just some random constellation of timing and odds? Fate?

This assumes they care about that. The parent is right: parental rights only insofar as they reflect a narrow interpretation of Christianity.

They went back for the animals who ran away during their first escape.
Picture in the article of those wheelchair-clad dogs says a thousand words–how did they manage crossing the broken bridge, glass, shrapnel, etc. while being shot at? Ye gods:


 The apparent bravery of the woman, who was attempting an audacious evacuation across a broken bridge targeted by Russian fire, and the vulnerability of the animals, some of whom were strapped into dog wheelchairs, epitomised to many the cruelty of the war being waged by Vladimir Putin and the dignity of the Ukrainian response.




Speaking in Irpin, the town 13 miles north of Kyiv from where the couple had fled on 9 March, Tykha said they ended up making seven crossings of the bridge in total, each one under fire.

“We had too much to do to be worried or scared”, said Tykha, who has run an animal shelter in Irpin for four years, and who on that first journey was seeking to escape with 19 dogs, five cats, a turtle, a chameleon, two Triton lizards, an axolotl and a hamster.



After crossing the bridge, again under fire, they faced a three-mile walk to a an abandoned animal shelter, where they knew there were hungry dogs who needed help.

“It was a hard walk because we had all this heavy food,” said Lee. They returned to their own home, where they found Zeus, and picked up some neighbours’ dogs, including a German shepherd, bringing their party of animals for the return to five.

They would make two further trips, and all the dogs that fled on the first escape were accounted for.
