El Salvador has one of the world's highest murder rates with powerful gangs that are ruining the country. For some unknown reason, a group of people broke into a zoo last week and attacked a beloved hippopotamus with a number of items including an ice pick. The hippo could not be saved and died this week from his injuries.

Terrible. Although I do realize by posting that, I'm going to see a lot of build the wall comments in reply. I don't care - it's still very disturbing.

No "build the wall" comment necessary on that one. It's very disturbing that people would break in to a zoo and kill an animal for the sake of doing so. Personally I wouldn't mind seeing those people rounded up and executed with an ice pick. I realize that isn't a very Christian thing to say, but I'm by no means perfect.

IMO, someone was trying to send a message.
