I hope your post was some kind of a sick joke. A natural disaster,
where folks lost absolutely everything, including family members.
People had crushed limbs, head injuries and other major traumatic
injuries and the whole planet rushed to help them to just survive and
all you can think of your own backyard...Hard to believe a reptile
like you lives on this planet.
