‘Journalism? What Journalism?’ (2018)

How do “reporters” learn to avoid asking difficult questions?

Remember the Parkland shooting? Yes, one of all too many school shootings. And somehow it wound up being blamed on law-abiding citizens who, in accord with their Second Amendment rights, owned firearms.

Journalism? What Journalism?

Had I been at our local demonstration as a reporter, I would have asked, “Aren’t you ashamed to exploit kids for your own political agenda?” And probably a few others, too, before they called the cops and complained I was harassing them.

Still waiting to pounce on us…

Hey, here’s an idea! Let’s turn to teenage girls for advice on public policy!

The Golden Age of Pure Crapola

And when we trot out the kiddies, they’ll have fantastically corrupt and dishonest politicians clinging to them, waiting to pounce on us.

They just know they’ll get their precious global government–Climbit Chainge and King COVID make an unbeatable tag-team. And we all know by now that powerful natural processes can be controlled by protests and demonstrations!

And if that don’t work, sling a couple of poems at ’em! And chant slogans. That always impresses tides and ocean currents.

Suddenly adults of the liberal persuasion just can’t get enough of children telling them what to do.

Using Children as Political Props

It’s something for the whole world to be ashamed of.

Children should be seen and not heard.

So Who Says There’s No Free Lunch?

Gov. Noisesome–er, Newsome–with his public policy adviser

Well, from now on, there is free lunch in California–free school lunch, that is. Free for all the kiddies whether their families pay the school lunch fee or not. This is thanks to a new law called–get your barf bag ready–“Creating California For All.” What the dickens does that mean?

And as icing on the cake, once again we see adults taking their marching orders from a child: in this case, a 9-year-old boy who “drew attention” to the disgraceful practice of “lunch shaming.” ( https://www.foxnews.com/food-drink/california-lunch-shaming-bill-meals)  Like, if you don’t pay your lunch fee, you have to eat an “alternative lunch.” They make it sound like the kids are forced to eat carpet beetles. Anyway, says the governor, Gavin Noiseome–oops: Newsome–“this amazing young man” (suddenly everything is “amazing”, have you noticed that?) saved up his allowance until he had $74.80 to pay for his classmates’ lunches and it was an “honor” for the governor to meet him.

Disregarding whether we believe in this, er, performance or not, don’t you find it more than just a little creepy, the way they’re all trotting out children now to make political points? Really, the more I think about that story, the less I believe it.

Question: If the state of California is going to provide free school lunch for all, why should anybody pay their lunch fees?

And Bernie sez it’ll be free lunch in all the schools in America if we totally lose our minds and elect him president. Stay tuned for some other Democrat to offer free supper, too.
