Took me way too long not to see Juanitos

In our small town - just a few thousand people, in an extremely red area of an extremely red state: there is a lady that stands on a corner of the main street though town (1 of 10 intersections). She wears her mask with a Gaza flag pattern and holds a Gaza flag with a small poster board that says like “Free Gaza” or something.

I support her right to protest, but I’m not sure that it’s doing anything or what her goal even is. No idea what her protest is designed to do other than virtue signal.

On the other hand I spend time in February making sure my kids and friends/family on social media see images of civil rights protests - brave people attending school or sitting at a lunch counter.

I think protests can work and can change things, but context and strategy matter a lot.

My child’s high school sent a letter home asking for permission to share his information and transcripts with military recruiters.

That will vary widely. Near me you can kill as many as you want, it’s legal. Now why you wouldn’t eat them is beyond me, since they are delicious.

There’s not much reading involved, it’s got a big picture of a deer on it.
