Bear With Me

Another day in Asheville, North Carolina (photo from Google):

Clever nypost.com headline: “Is ‘woke’ to be the only religion allowed in US public schools?” Yes, if the left has its way.

Excerpt from NYP editorial: “…shootings of cops are up 43% so far in 2022, with 101 officers hit in the first quarter alone.”

Most satisfying headline of the day, foxnews.com: “Woke employees melt down over Musk’s purchase and his push for free speech.” Still, I’m in a “show me” frame of mind.

Interesting development from off-Broadway detailed in an FN article by Emma Colton, in my own words. Oh Gosnell: The Truth About Abortion by Phelim McAleer will run from 4/29–5/15, and Oh God: A Show About Abortion from 4/25–6/4. The former, described as pro-life, details the trial of convicted murderer and abortionist Kermit Gosnell and relies on testimony and interviews. The latter is described as a comedy “high on anecdote.” There is a movement trying to cancel Oh Gosnell… that cites safety concerns. McAleer believes it’s an attempt at censorship. Probably true, but don’t rule out whackos showing up and creating a ruckus. It doesn’t take much to foment violence these days. I’m posting posters below. The sizes have nothing to do with my position. It’s just the way they come out sometimes and I’m clueless as to how to rectify it. I’m pro-life.

It was pleasant despite the cloud cover, barely any wind. Although I sensed it wouldn’t rain, I played it safe, displaying only 25% of the inventory. My thanks to the woman who bought four kids’ books, and to The Quiet Man, who purchased two DVDs: Gangs of New York (2002) and Stargate (1994).
