¡Qué comentario tan repugnante e impío! Deberías arrepentirte. O lees y sigues la verdadera palabra de Dios y vives tu vida con amor y paz, o te callas. Dios no odia, tú tampoco deberías.
100%
A person who decribes themselves as “dark-skinned Haitian” should know about discrimination and hate. Live and let live.
Wow. The Dominican Today staff / monitors is going to allow this comment but not allow me to respond respectfully? Incredible
