Nobody in the picture is “fleeing the gas”. The woman and her kids are not “fleeing the gas, which is behind her and blowing away. Almost all the other people in the picture are posing for various camera people, there are at least 4 groups. Some are just standing back at the fence talking, a few are doing action shots. One is actually doing an action shot running TOWARD the cloud, although it actually appears he’s running toward another camera.

This woman is the only woman in the picture of 70 people, and the kids are the only kids. And the kids don’t seem happy, she is forcibly dragging them in a way that, if you saw a woman doing this in Target, you’d have her arrested for child abuse.

And notice Mom’s Disney shirt.

I can agree with some of what is being said about this woman and kids, but I’d give her a break on the shirt.

Selling used clothing (or factory seconds) is big business in Honduras. Lots of people buy whatever fits because it’s cheap. Most don’t know or care what the words in English actually say, so there’s little embarrassment. I’ve seen grown men walking around with shirts saying “My Little Pony”, or some such, not having a clue what it meant.

The clothing these people wear is a non-starter.

I don’t think those are her kids. Look at the hair color and skin tones.

That was the first thing I noticed, also. They certainly don’t look like typical Hondurans.

Looks to me like she’s stealing a couple of white girls.

She walked 2,500 miles and still has a muffin top?
