This human being looks so sad… what could be in the mind and heart of someone who has poor judgement and creates a situation around children that makes him repulsive to society? Look at his eyes, he is lost, he is broken, just like the society where he was raised, he is a product of a broken system, a broken society, a broken world gone mad without any concern for the welfare of the young and innocent… He is someone’s son, and he used to be a little boy, what happened? That is the question we should all be asking ourselves…. love to all…
