Those poor people, and even more horrid and sad for those goaties! UGH, I just can't stand it. When I see pictures like this, there are so many images running around, over and over, in my head of what the goats did when that fire started.

Oh... oh, dear... oh, no...

I hope that the fumes overcame those poor goats before they knew what hit them.

Oh, man... I'm in tears... how horrid...

What I find troublesome are some of the remarks made on the news site.

People can be cosmically ignorant and cruel.
