Santa Fe believes the children are its future, and as such, its leaders say they are listening very seriously to a group of students who are urging the city to ban plastic bags in grocery stores and other places that use them. The kids have solid reasoning — as one fifth-grader said, "Stop using plastic bags and help everybody in the universe including people who are going to be alive in the future."

It’s a full on frontal assault on kids these days.

It’s not enough telling the self esteem bloated heads full of mush they are the “world.” Now they think they are the UNIVERSE. The communist agenda incorporates the word universial into all their political compaigns...

No way would I permit these freaks access to my children. I did not let them watch television that I did not program for them, either.

Understand. He's the inquisitive one but generally responds pretty well with the right guidance.

A week after that he asked a question about planets in the solar system so we spent some time at various web sites viewing comparative orbits of all the planets.

Cool. That’s fun stuff for kids.
