As the number of derailments by trains carrying crude oil escalates, lawmakers are pressing the Obama administration to act.

I hope this article will open the covered eyes of those who refuse to stand against the SODOMITES and the LESBIANS. Their lifestyle is an abomination to all but most of all to God, our Creator.
