Insanity

Parent’s Rights

A mother was actively contacting her daughter’s teachers because she believed that the teachers were impressing sexual beliefs on her daughter. During the school year, she wound up sending 500 emails to school staff, which triggered at least three investigations into the behavior of various staff members. As a former teacher, I can understand how parents can be vexing and unreasonable at times. This doesn’t appear to be one of those cases.

The first complaint lodged by the mother was triggered by a teacher who asked students what name and pronouns they preferred. They also asked if it was OK to share that information with the teens’ parents. This attempt at grooming and converting children into the LGTBQ lifestyle has spawned at least one lawsuit Florida already.

This has been going on for years. I faced it when I was teaching. There is a battle going on in school districts between liberal advocates who want to groom your children and conservative teachers who are opposing them. It’s gotten so bad that there is a bill in the Florida legislature that bans schools from discussing homosexuality with students.

It gets worse. The mother reported that various teachers were discussing issues such as “safe space” rainbow stickers on classroom walls, the intrusion of “critical race theory” into the schools, and even made regular trips to the School Board to express her views.

School staff tried taking her to court for restraining orders on three different occasions. They lost. One of the teachers even claims that she was forced to retire, rather than continue answering emails from a parent. That is pure horse manure. There is a statute that permits a teacher to force a student to be removed from their class and placed in another teacher’s classroom. This is pure sympathy grandstanding.

As a result of all of this, the superintendant of schools has had the girl removed from her school and sent elsewhere- essentially expelled her- because her mother chose to exercise the rights she has under Florida law as a parent.

These communists are waging all out war in any way that they can. They are trying to hold your children hostage. Don’t let them.

Protecting Criminals

I know that many of us talk about how the government seems to be protecting criminals. In New York, that has become quite literally what is happening. The city has established the country’s first “overdose prevention center” where medical professionals oversee and assist people in administering illegal drugs to themselves.

The people behind it say- and I’m not kidding- that this is based upon science. They are saving lives, don’t you know.

I wonder what science will discover next. Perhaps they will declare that the police need to escort thieves into your home, so that thieves don’t have to risk working and stealing in an unsafe environment. Think of the lives they will save.

Hungry Like the Wolf

When I was a teacher for those seven years, I got to see the weird and stupid things that teens and children do on an industrial scale. We had one group of students who called themselves the “wolfpack.” They dressed with ears and tails and travelled the hallways of the school in a well, pack.

When one would howl, you would hear the rest of them howl in response, even when separated by an entire schoolyard.

When one of them was being bullied, the other members of the pack would rush to defend their mates. This was probably the most sane part of the entire thing.

They went to the school office and demanded to all be assigned to the same class schedule so they could remain with their packmates. The school denied the request.

I was reminded of that story when I read this article from the Daily Mail that I found because of wirecutter. The person in this article is obviously unhappy with himself. He first decided that he wasn’t a man and declared himself to be a woman. Even though the article keeps using the pronoun “she,” this nutbar is actually a man pretending to be a woman who thinks he is a wolf. Or something. Is that literally violence to refer to transspecies people as people? Or does that only apply to transgender? What pronoun does a wolf use? This shit literally gives me a headache.

At its core, trans anything is the manifestation of a mental illness. It is a psychosis that the psychology industry has decided is no longer a mental illness. From my favorite Christmas movie:

You believe yourself to be Judge Harper, yet no one questions your sanity because you are Judge Harper.

In this case, the loon appears not to be a danger to others. In that case, I don’t care if he believes himself to be a woman or a wolf. Just don’t ask me to play along with him.

On a side note: The only good version of Miracle on 34th Street is the 1947 version in black and white, starring Maureen O’Hara and Natalie Wood. The abomination that was the colorized version doesn’t count, nor does the 1994 remake

Recidivism

The Loudon county tranny that raped two high school girls was convicted of two counts of sodomy. He won’t be forced to register as a sex offender. Why? The reason given was that it would hurt the boy’s chances of getting a job in the future, which would then cause him to reoffend:

The teen’s probation officer, Jason Bickmore, opposed forcing him to register as a sex offender, saying studies show teenage sex offenders required to register actually have a higher rate of re-offending. He said the aim of the juvenile justice system is rehabilitation, not punishment.

I have an idea. A father in Spokane found the solution to recidivism.

Virtual Crime

WIRED tries to make the case that virtual crimes should carry criminal penalties because the virtual world seems real to some people. I have a few questions:

  • If I commit a virtual crime, will my avatar go to virtual prison?
  • If I am accused of a virtual crime, do I receive a virtual trial?
  • Will I get virtual jury duty?
  • If my avatar is a POC, can I receive virtual affirmative action?
  • Do I have virtual rights under a virtual constitution?

Ridiculous.

Don’t Train Kids Act

A committee of the Florida house just passed a bill that would prohibit educators from talking about LGBTQ+ topics that are not “age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students.”

To anyone that opposes this: What reason can you possibly have for discussing sexually explicit topics with children?

As a person who spend eight years as an educator, I will tell you that there are some school districts that are literally and actively trying to groom kids into a sexually aberrant lifestyle. Here is an actual document that I was given while I was a teacher:

I don’t care if a person wants to be gay, bisexual, whatever. You wanna put a guy’s penis in your mouth or rectum, I don’t care. I don’t care if one woman wants to marry another. None of that is my business.

However, it is every adult’s business to make sure that you aren’t getting children involved in your sexual fantasies.

Death of the V8

Dodge is cancelling the Hemi V8, despite the fact that it is an immensely popular engine. Why? Woke bullshit. Bad decisions like this are why the government shouldn’t bail companies out of financial woes.

There are those who can’t stand that you can get into your privately-owned vehicle at any time of the day or night and drive virtually anywhere you please. These budding authoritarians view that and all other forms of personal freedom as threats to their power.

Don’t Deny ‘Science’

Scientists claim that, if cats were human, they would be psychopathic. As evidence, they noted that cats “dominate neighborhood cat(s) (e.g. chases them, picks fights with them),” “is undeterred by punishment i.e. will repeat behaviors he/she is scolded for” and “vocalizes loudly (e.g. meows, yowls) for no apparent reason.”

Of course, cats aren’t human. Cats do what cats do, because those behaviors are what they needed to compete and survive.

We are spending money to pay scientists to tell us that cats are psychopaths, but those same scientists tell us that a man can be a woman by merely declaring himself to be one.

We are truly entering the dark ages.
