The bedrock, foundation stone, must do, can’t fail job when it comes to national security is to keep the kids alive and safe and well – no exceptions, says the young woman who is challenging Precinct 1, Place 2 Justice of the Peace Walter “Pete” Peterson.
Sounds like an impossible standard. Kids die all the time.
It can also result in shortsighted movements. For example the Parkland shooting. Now more youths perish in Chicago gunfire in, say, a month. But that isn’t grabbing eyes.
And even yet. With the reality that we can’t ever find a perfect person in an earthly election, this might be better than Peterson. It’s something to watch, not necessarily something to boycott the whole idea of voting over.
