      I wish you wouldn’t jump to blaming conservatives for this!

      They would never do anything so blatant!

      They’d leave poisoned water and candy little children like.

      Sure, ALL conservatives are grotesque villains who love killing vulnerable people… Some people should hear themselves speak, smh. Username checks out I guess.

      I remember that Bible verse fondly.

      And yay, Jesus said unto the people, “I have taken these loaves of bread and water and turned them into a feast for all1

      1 Does not include anyone with a slightly darker skin tone2 or from outside of the greatest country ever3 or poor or lame or weak or obese or ugly or that doesn’t fit my perfect description of a person4

      2 Unless that skin tone was achieved through baking oneself under harsh UV rays (real or artificial).

      3 Obviously I mean the United States. That totally existed in biblical times you pedantic asshole.

      4 Even if I don’t personally fit this description, this absolutely applies to me as well. I can be fat and poor and worthless, but fuck all you other people struggling with life. Be born better.

    Most likely Border Patrol or some group of “Compassionate” Conservatives. Who else would do something as inhumane? Literally nobody else has the motivation.

      Border Patrol has a long history of destroying water stores left out for migrants. It’s usually plastic jugs that they slash open and leave behind to be found by the migrants, which is almost worse to find than just taking the water and USBP knows that.
