Who originally thought it was a good idea to build children’s camps in a notorious flash flood zone? This isn’t the first time this has happened in that same area. 1987 & fatalities then, too.
The same kind of people who think vaccines are optional? It's not a mistake that there's biblical flooding and plagues in Texas
So very sad!😢
I can't stop thinking about the MAGAts in TX that voted to take away my rights, create fear, and try to rip my family apart.
💔
I am so heartbroken for the girls who are still missing and their families. I am also moved to mention that the camp got several hundred children to safety and that seems important too.
The owner died trying save them.
And Trump golfs
Trump and GOP did it

Yes those poor Uvalde kids....oh wait.....
Texas would have been better off if that crop picker who ran into that school to save her two kids and got a whole class out intact would have been elected governor.
Definitely. But they voted for the same republicans that got them in the situation in the first place.

Oralè Resister Mexico Helps Texas Rescue Victims of Guadalupe River Flood. The irony is beyond the Human decency! While at the same time Mexico President Sheinbaum is demanding immediate repatriation of Mexican citizens at Alligator Alley! #Texas #USDemocracy #MexicoRescueTeams #AlligatorAlley
Remembering my brief time at Mystic, it's...just...if I'd had daughters and granddaughters, any one of those girls could've been mine. And they were someone's...and that someone feels the pain I can imagine clearly enough to bring tears.
I can't imagine their fear. 🤧🤧🤧
Hope and condolences to all the families in this nightmare.
"A GOP state lawmaker who represents Kerr County (Wes Virdell) says he likely would vote differently now on House Bill 13, which would have established a grant program for counties to build new emergency communication infrastructure." From Texas Tribune
Typical. Have to hit the new GOP in the face with the consequences for ANY reaction.
Chances are if another bill was put before him he would still vote no
Why does it have to take a tragedy for them to do something responsible?!?
I suspect that even after this tragedy, nothing will be done. There will be talk, but no action.
You're probably right. People shoot up schools and they do nothing.
There are more they chose to ignore all the other victims since this was in a prominent place which is sickening
Hopefully the most of these girls did not know what was happening
It's terrifying. I'm hoping they find them safe and well.
A Red Ruby State of Texas with 2 Liars Hypocrites Senate GOP, lot of House GOP, Governor GOP & the Liar Racist Fascist Convicted Felon Criminal Taco Dictator Chicken Trump won the State are lying why they could not avoid & prevented all the Death by Failure of Trump & Abbott to prevent & avoid it!
With that large a Camp, that many children-I'm to believe that not one Adult had a frigging Weather Radio? Not a cell phone-an actual Weather Alert System radio. It should have been in a Main Office where somebody should have been AWAKE. Was there no Emergency System within the Camp to alert others?
Repuglicans call that fiscal responsablity‼️😡

It's a very sad situation that might have been prevented. We'll never know...
The death toll could be over 100. One of the campgrounds near the Mystic had 33 Rv’s. All washed away by a raging torrent at 4:30 am. More than horrific
💔🙏
Same. Summer kids at summer camp, just sleeping in their beds.
It’s astonishing to me tht not only did they situate cabins next to a river they knew has a history of flash flooding but they put the youngest (and this hardest to evacuate) in them! No way do we do that in MO
Curious if there are any regulations to run these camps. Is anyone assigned to stand guard overnight? Surely, if anything, insurance would require something. I’ve read that citizens of that area voted down to have a proper alarm system installed. Why is safety an option? So many wrongs.
Summer camps are incredibly unregulated. Here in MO we had a lot of weather awareness around thunderstorms and tornadoes but that was entirely voluntary
The photos of the cabin interiors with all the girls’ bedding and belongings amid the mud and destruction are the hardest photos to look at from this tragedy. Horrific sorrow. Awful.
they aren’t missing. they drowned. it shouldn’t have happened.
Thank MAGA for gutting the National Weather Service Warning System.
Interestingly, among the girls rescued from Camp Mystic are two of Rep Pfluger (R-TX) children. Pfluger is complicit in the Administration's decimation of the Federal workforce and he voted for the Big Ugly Bill. www.fox7austin.com/news/texas-a...
And he’ll be sure to blame the Biden admin! And not his orange jebus‼️😡
I had a nightmare when my kids were little. I dreamt we were camping in tents. We were outside the tents except our youngest & a huge surge of water washed the tent completely away. I had that dream over 30 years ago. I woke up terrified. I’m reminded of it each time there’s a flood like this.
