It's way past time since someone provided a strong voice for the voiceless.

Babies are raped somewhere in the world every day.

To me, it's the biggest scourge to the world today.

These perpetrators must be held accountable and spend every waking moment of their lives being afraid of punishment for these crimes against humanity, somehow. Soon. Forever.

Thanks so much for sharing this, she². I love you.

And I love Jasmine Crockett. ❤️
