The Left Really, Really Needs to Worry About Pedogate, Con't...

Save Our Children protests are getting bigger all the time. The connection has been made between the pandemic and its wag the dog aspect. And the Left remains clueless and paranoid about putting kids back into schools and opening up restaurants and small businesses, garnering more ire from common people, as if they needed more. Notice how many are calling for the death of pedophiles and directly associating them with Hollywood. This is a powder keg.

I should add: I think the various protests, riots, rallies, etc on every side are basically what happens when you tell a bunch of extroverts they can't go anywhere for six months. I'm a natural hermit, but normal people go totally bonkers in those conditions. The "why" happens after the fact.

I know, right? In my state of Illinois, we're still not allowed to gather in "large" groups. No movies. Kids are forced to 100% e-Learning and they all HATE it.

Restaurants are empty and people have secret parties in their homes, or at least they do in my neighborhood where nobody tattles.

An unspecified while back, we were unable to hold our annual family reunion due to crowd regulations. So around the same time, a family member with a large house and a swimming pool volunteered to host "Great Aunt X's Birthday Party" (whoever had the closest birthday, basically) and the whole vast tribe was invited. A tea trolley was put out on the front stoop, with masks and hand sanitizer, and a big note explaining that old folks were present. Everyone dutifully stopped and hand-sanitized, and put on a mask, in full view of the neighbors. And then proceeded into the house, where the old folks who were concerned about it remained masked, and... there was a big backyard, a swingset and fort for the kids, a pool, a big patio, and the traditional heaps of party food. And a privacy fence.

And who wore a mask and who didn't was their own business. But I have never yet seen someone swim or eat while wearing one. And no power in the universe is going to keep my aunts from hugging everyone at a family gathering.

Sounds like fun! It's a sad day we are living in when hugging an Auntie has become a radical act.

It was! Never thought I'd see the day when going to a family party felt naughty and clandestine. One of the neighbors called the cops. Homeowner stepped out to speak to them, showed them the ceremonial tea trolley, and they left. Cops are keen on arresting criminals. They are really, really unenthusiastic when it comes to breaking up birthday parties.

You really have to wonder what the emotional/mental state is of a person who calls the cops on a backyard birthday party. Last week, there was a loud (sounded like fun) party on Saturday night with music and people playing games from the sounds of it. This was in my neighborhood where there are a lot of Mexicans -- ahem, LATINOS but most of them are from Mexico, so there -- and Mexicans, at least the ones in this area, love family parties. Meaning, they do stuff like rent an electric riding bull, catering, a tent, and a live band for a seven year old's birthday. A solitary cop showed up to the Saturday night party and stayed in the squad car. Cops have way better things to do than to break up a friends & family party when such normalcy has been prevented by Big Karen and her goon squads for the last six months.

Our police department in Ottawa had to issue a statement saying more or less, "Couples holding hands in public is not worth calling us," so there seem to be a lot of people with serious issues right now....

It's the meltdown of the Professional Managerial Class (PMC) that is suddenly confronting the facts that:

1. They're not special
2. They're not the Good People™
3. Everybody either despises them or worse, doesn't care about them, so they've got to go full Karen to get attention
