When you send your child to a private school, you do so because that school offers a better education than does a public school. One of the ways that they do that is by controlling the environment through different rules than are present in public schools. You agree to those rules when you enroll, and this is especially true of religious based private schools.

So for a female student to become outraged and complain when a Christian private school requires her to wear a dress in order to attend a school sponsored prom is a bit disingenuous. It would make as much sense if she was outraged when asked to pray before class. You can always go to a different school.

So I am in the middle of changing all of my passwords. The reasons for that will be discussed in an upcoming post within the next few weeks, but it involves a data breach. I deactivated my Facebook account more than a year ago. I have not logged in since. So when I logged in to my account this morning to change the password, I was surprised to see a notification that my account has been flagged for posts that indicate I am considering suicide, and that my post was removed from my account, and reported to the authorities for possible suicidal ideation.

The post was dated December 19, 2019.

For the record:

• I don’t know anyone in the Clinton family
• I am not suicidal, nor do I have plans to hurt anyone, including myself
• I don’t even know what the post supposedly said, as I can’t even see it myself
• The supposedly offending post was from more than three years ago.
• I haven’t even logged into that account in more than a year.

There is a discussion on Twitter whereby some moron is claiming that the only contribution that refrigeration has made to mankind is to make beer cold. Check it out.

Hard to identify? It refrigerates. Kinda self-explanatory.

Guys complaining about “modernity” while engaging in the most useless, vapid, self-indulgent modern pursuit: social media influencer.

How about we keep refrigerators and you go get a real job, Adam? pic.twitter.com/0BuSJtOmb8

How did a Russian tank, captured in Ukraine, wind up abandoned in a Louisiana truck stop?

Archiving this here. The spree shooter in Louisville has his pronouns in his LinkedIn profile, which has already been scrubbed.

His social media is filled with all sorts of leftie talking points, slams on DJT, social justice, and antigun screeds. I unfortunately didn’t grab many of them before they were scrubbed.

• Once is happenstance.
• Twice is coincidence. Nashville Shooting.
• Three times is enemy action. Less than a 3 hour drive from Nashville.

It’s almost like this is being done on purpose.

I get so many stories in the queue, that I just don’t have time to cover them all. Truth is, I could easily write a dozen stories a day, but I just don’t have the patience to get worked up that often. Anyhow, here are the best 10 out of the 50 or so I had waiting:

• An openly Marxist teacher in Maryland is “fucking angry” and wants to teach kids to overthrow capitalism while saying that “revolutions involve violence.” I’m not too worried about it. I doubt that Maryland teachers are any better at teaching violence, Marxism, or revolutions than they are at teaching math and reading. Only 19 percent of Maryland students performing math and reading that is appropriate for their grade level. In fact, the school where she teaches, North Bethesda Middle School, is one of the better schools in Maryland, but that isn’t saying much. Only 36% of students in the school are performing math at grade level (12the best in the state), and only 69% can read at grade level (16th best in the state). Obviously not many great teachers there.

• Speaking of teachers, this elementary teacher in Minnesota says that her goal is to confuse as many children as possible about their sexuality.

• Millennials are the generation most likely to support a cap on wealth. Of course they do. What surprised me was the top wealth that they think people should accrue. Their top range (picked by 16%) was $100,000 to $500,000 in net worth. That would mean that professionals like doctors, accountants, and anyone who owns a home would run afoul of the wealth cap. This proves that millennials are bad at math. No surprise. Maybe they were asking people in Maryland..

• This woman lost the money she was saving for a down payment on a house. It wasn’t like she misplaced it. The FBI took the $40,000 from her safe deposit box and is keeping it under asset forfeiture laws. The people who owned the safe deposit box company were criminals, but the FBI is keeping the contents of the boxes while not charging any of them with crimes. A familiar story, I know.

• Ottawa is planning on extending its gun laws to include airsoft guns. Canada.

• The left says that we all bear responsibility for something that ended more than 100 years before we were born. That’s right- slavery was our fault, because we are white.

• A study of 22 criminals is going to be used to make new California gun laws. A sample size of 22 means exactly nothing. The study found that spree killers bought more guns than average. Average?

• Interesting. Here is a recently declassified video of how B52 crews were trained to conduct nuclear strikes. I don’t think we even have this capability anymore.

• Stanford study says that people should charge their EV’s while they are at work, instead of at night while at home. Wait, I thought lefties expected to work from home? Oh, well. In their future, the people will own everything, amirite?

• Here is another story on how other nations are running away from the dollar. The collapse nears.

The Biden administration has kicked the Catholic Diocese out of Walter Reed Medical center for Easter weekend.

@WRBethesda has issued a cease and desist order directing Catholic priests to cease any religious services at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, during Holy Week, the most sacred of days in the Christian faith. https://t.co/sS7279MTTm

If this is the precursor to such a blockade, it is an act of war. The US should respond by publishing photos of Chinese aircraft carriers that were obviously taken through the periscope of undetected submarines.
