A good example of suicidal empathy.
Regardless, it’s excruciating seeing such a kind woman leave this world in such a gruesome way (smashed to death by a mallet, jesus…), not to mention the 3 children that’ll be left behind. Can’t imagine the pain the children and their relatives are going through.

People like this are why we can’t have nice things.

This is exactly what’s happening on the immigration debate, bleeding hearts with suicidal empathetic tendencies are overseeing the beating of Britain with a proverbial mallet by the worst the world has to offer.

Incredibly sad, but yeah that’s going to happen when you do that.

I’ve always thought “be kind and help” if you can….
An old friend turned up in my life after 20 years, started stealing money from me and then tried to destroy my other friendships.
I’ve not been as kind or friendly ever since.
There’s some bad people out there.

Another reason to never interact with them. They are on the street for a reason.
