Red State ^ | 14 March 2024 | Alex Parker

A Connecticut school choir is singing a political song about weather, and it doesn't concern climate change. Rather, the subject is social justice's most iconic figure.

According to Campus Reform, New Fairfield High has been rehearsing for an important New York performance. To be belted: "Weather: Stand the Storm."

Will they be passing phony $20 bills at the local McDonalds? Have any of them done 10 years in prison for holding a pregnant woman hostage...at knife point?

Knowing Floyd was a complete thug and the entire narrative around him totally fake, I wonder how many other icons in history are also complete frauds.

Same with Matthew Shepard — the drug dealer killed during a drug deal gone bad that became a gay icon.

Made me skeptical of everything.

Ignorant and mentally challenged fools just never go away. With a substancial portion of them being socialists, of course they preferr to be called liberals or progressives as it has a better ring.

“White silence is violence”

Nope, my silence is: you fry your chicken and I’ll fry mine.

I’d have had more respect for the song if were one of Pink Floyd’s.

Traveling Wilburys did a piece featuring Bob Dylan called “Tweeter and the Monkey Man”. That, too would be apropos of the reality: the life of a streetwise playa vs. a cop.
