I’m not the only one in my family to get on buzzfeed now for stupid reasons haha
I just feel sorry for the kids. They don't know any better. The parents and camp should be charged for intentionally endangering children.
Wishing a good outcome for all involved. And President Ass Hat wants to rush to open schools and have CDC loosen their guidelines?!
Natural selection at work

This is what it would be like if schools opened. Only worse!
CAMP CORONA !
Time to go back to school kids, per potus orders.
Thoughts and prayers...🤷♂️
Is anyone surprised by this
Kanakuk only shut down one of the camps, K-2. The others are still going on.
Listening to Christian logic.
Ts & Ps

JoshMankiewicz But, by all means... “SEND KIDS TO SCHOOL”! What could *possibly* go wrong? 🤯
JoshMankiewicz Duh! Damn idiots.
JoshMankiewicz but god and stuff? What about washed in the blood and all that? 🤨
Good work God
So prayer didn’t protect them from the virus after all? 🤔Interesting!
Thoughts and prayers.
This is SO unnecessary.
Guess we're lucky it only took 82 cases. Christian institutions proving once again they don't care about human life unless it's a group of cells in a woman's uterus. Why was it even open?
Oh Lord
The prayers didn’t work?!?!
File this under “duh”...Are they really surprised?
God Bless all of those affected
