Its' looking increasingly like Ron DeSantis was right after all...

 
And more and more of us outside of Florida are starting to see that....

Oh the looks I got around here in Orlando for speaking out against lockdowns in the very beginning when they just started. I knew then I was going to fight against every single day.
 
Kids have been back in school in-person here for a while now.

But they are damaged for a generation with depression issues, record suicides, record drug use, problems with communicating and interacting with people. Paranoid beyond reason. Turned a bunch of children that are already self centered thanks to today’s parents into self centered mentally handicapped little people. Remember your governments did this to your children and all of you sat back and accepted like good cattle.

"Out of an abundance of caution," they said.

No, more like, to borrow Dennis Prager's words, "an abundance of cowardice."

None of that happened to my kid or any kid I know.

I know a entire neighborhood of kids like that and the hundreds of homes I enter every month and Florida got schools open before almost anyone. I’m the guy in the neighborhood everyone knows fixes almost everything because of my work. What I have found is Parents love to share the positive and negative about their kids. And it’s a ton of negative lately.
 
When we had our shutdowns back in early/mid-March 2020 here in the Morganton area, one prominent victim was a used bookseller, MAD Books, which had been open for over 3 decades. The shutdown killed her business, figuratively and literally.
 
Kids are resilient. They'll be fine. A little bit of trials and tribulations builds character.

Except for the record suicides of kids the last two years. Kids desperately need human interaction even more than adults and that was stolen from them.

Record drug use and attempted suicides, they may recover but many never will.

Mid March, yes we went to Epcot and downtown Disney the last day before it shutdown and the world changed forever.

He's right; kids need that growing up and for nearly two years they were denied that.

So doom and gloom, how about looking at people in your community and seeing how they are instead of just reading headlines all day. In real life you don't see much of that, at least not around here.

That’s just facts but you can enjoy life every day and realize it’s not ice cream and the perfect cup of coffee every day in life.
