Canada’s media reported on a student walk out at Toronto’s York Catholic School in support of two “LGBTQ2S+” students last week.
The pair of students were upset that the Christian school wouldn’t fly the Pride flag.
How this becomes national news is a mystery. But it does provide an insight into the priorities of news networks.
One of the two offended students told CTV News …
“I attend Catholic school, and I’m gay, and I deserve to feel safe and validated at my school and be recognized as both – I shouldn’t have to make a choice between the two,” the student said.
Her comment is instructive.
Here we have a high school kid demanding a 2000 year old faith bend to accomodate her sexual identity because, in her words, she deserves to feel validated.
And without that validation, she feels unsafe.
A generation trained to think with their feelings and to reason with their emotions will invariably feel entitled to validation from everyone else, or a tantrum will ensue.
How do I know this? Because I raised two toddlers.
An “inclusive and safe education” apparently now means that an insignia indicating the sexual proclivities of every student must flutter from the school flag pole. Without that, no lesbian can feel safe in class.
Catholic School Teacher: ‘What does 2 plus 2 equal?’
LGBTQ2S+ student: ‘Before I answer that, do you affirm my same sex orientation? And can I have a flag wave out the front of the admin building in my honour?’
Things took a turn for the worse when a group - described by Global News TV as “rambunctious teens” - started dancing on a Pride flag.
Global News interviewed a distraught student …
“They were throwing water everywhere. They were looking at us. There were judging us.”
Wait. What?
They looked at you? With a judgy look?
The horror! It was a hundred times worse than January 6, which was a thousand times worse than 9/11. (Never forget, though, that BLM riots were “mostly peaceful”)
Anyway, we are fortunate that Global News were on the scene to cover the judgy expressions, or they would have gone unreported.
But the barrage of raised eyebrows was about to get even worse. The reporter breathlessly told viewers …
“Then the rambunctious teens turned violent, throwing pride bracelets and other random objects on the road and at people.”
Yep. Rubber bracelets were thrown on the road.
It was a bracelet genocide.
But don’t worry, #WeWillRebuild
Organisers said the group also shouted anti-queer slurs.
The Global News reporter assured viewers that “police are currently gathering video footage as part of their investigation”.
I think we all wish police every success. The teenage rambuction who threw the rubber pride bracelet onto the bitumen deserves to be met with the full force of the law.
The prioritising of LGBTQ rights - by news outlets and police - is not accidental. It comes from the top.
When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with Italian PM Giorgia Meloni at the G7 last month he made a point of telling her …
“Obviously, Canada is concerned about some of the (positions) that Italy is taking in terms of LGBT rights.”
Meloni’s hate crime? Her government has insisted that, where a child is being raised by homosexuals, only the biological parent will be recorded on the city register.
“I look forward to talking with you about that,” Trudeau said, obviously feeling unsafe.
The rambunctious Meloni looked at Trudeau, with a judgy look. If he had given her a pride bracelet she would most definitely have tossed it.
Meloni to JT; "Hey JT, I just beena speakin' to my friend James in Oz, he tinks you're malato di testa & you need to takea de Bex, drinka da tea & liea the f#@k down, you dopey bastard. Soundsa good to me."
We are seeing, in almost all first world 'democratic' nations, that old adage about trickledown theory. The pernicious rot of immorality, corruption and deception is definitely starting at the top and smothering and stifling everything and everyone on the way down. And woe betide those of us who resist it.
