Australia fires: 'Apocalypse' comes to Kangaroo Island

My heart breaks for these critters in Oz.

If anyone knows of a good charity I can donate a few dollars to help, let me know. I’m on a fixed income but I can spare five or ten.

The only charities I donate to now are all local. I don't trust the big national ones anymore.

Two Islamic youths have been arrested and charged for lighting fires in Sydney. They laughed about it at their court appearance.

Wonderful *****rollingeyes*****

The so-called experts keep blaming climate change.  They ignore the idiots who deliberately or through carelessness likely started these fires.
