In the words
of Charlie Brown ARRRRRRRGH!
Enough
already!
I am sick
and tired of reading about wannabe pretend adults who are really living as a
child in a child’s room at very expensive American colleges and universities.
Every time I
read articles about these almost adults by columnists, even those I respect, I
find myself looking about for a bar of soap to wash out my mouth as my mother
would have done.
Where can I
find someone in our nation’s institutions who is not just a very well paid
adult baby sitter who lives and teaches the philosophy of “He who controls the
past controls the future and He who controls the present controls the past.” If
you think these quotations sound Orwellian (think George Orwell) you are
correct.
Examples of
wannabe adults without manners or understanding and who are being cared for by
people who are teaching them their totalitarian state philosophy includes all of
the following:
Delay, cancel or make optional academic
tests for reasons of personal stress?
Breathing space?
Cuddling cats and dogs?
Coloring Books?
Tea and Chocolate?
Therapy Dogs?
Tissues for those who are crying?
Play-Doh?
Safe
Places with highly restricted free speech rules that protect their frail
sensibilities?
Oh my God! This
list is only a current media snapshot. It goes on and on and the brethren of
these children are allowed to roam our nation’s cities, streets and roads in
mass to curse, defame and castigate the rest of the nation who voted wisely in
opposition to their desires and will not now bow down and accept the constitutional
challenge presented by these malicious misfits. They are surely safe and truly wrong
but the country does nothing, the world laughs and the true adults hang their
heads because of what we were and are now becoming.
Wait,
swallow this pill too:
I kid you
not. I quote from an article I just read that was titled “Juvenile activists sue government
over climate change policy”. Are you ready? Eight children are asking a
Seattle judge to find the State of Washington in contempt for failing to
adequately protect them and future generations from the harmful effects of
climate change. The ages of these wonderful scholarly beings falls between 12
and 16 years old.
I am willing
to wager that it is quite likely that most of these children in and out of
academia settings have not been taught and do not possess even have a basic
understanding, appreciation for or respect of the Constitution of the United States.
Watch
closely and you will see our nation’s founders and heroes turn over in their
graves, kneel and bow their heads in supplication.
I firmly
believe that “Sometime before the year 2025, America will pass through a great
gate in history commensurate with the American Revolution, Civil War, and the
twin emergencies of the Great Depression and World War II”. Source:
The Fourth Turning by Strauss and Howe
Pardon me as
I leave you now to sit in the darkness of my hallway closet and shake my head a
lot, curse a little and weep silently for what we were, are now and what we
will surely become.
