Vernont Selectboard Un-Candidate #24

     First, a mistake: I meant Wendy's not Hardee's yesterday. I got my third day's coffee today without a hitch. I also noted that the floor beneath the urinal didn't even look wet. At McDonald's there's usually a pool of urine there, probably because so many more men pee there. It was nice not having to stand in pee while you peed.
     Recently, I had a hard-working Trump voter -there is another one in Brattleboro besides me- tell me that one of his workers had complained that she had to get food stamps. He asked her or wanted to ask her why she had two kids if she couldn't afford them. He thought this was a bad example of people being on welfare. I wondered if he would have denied her welfare if he had the power, and next time I will. Instead of asking that question after the the fact when of course, you aren't going to deny the kids help, we should establish a norm, like it used to be, that you don't have children if you can't afford them, even if you can get on welfare. But as long as people walk around saying, "I don't judge" no norms are going to be established. People, if you don't judge, you are the only species that doesn't. Judging is all important. Let me see you cross the street without judging. The British and French citizens are learning they had better be able to judge terrorist quickly. Their lives depend on it. They also need to be able to judge an Islamofascist who's trying to convert their children as one of the latest London terrorists and machete-killers was doing. They need to judge it as dangerous and report it. And get any other affected parents to report it too so maybe the police will leave their doughnuts and investigate.
     People are social animals. They are influenced by people around them. Don't let terrorists get to your children because you don't want to "judge them." Besides being stupid, you're falling into the hands of the terrorists, and those hands will mutilate and kill you and your children because of their crazy, evil, totalitarian religion that Muhammed made up, like all religions unfortunately, so he could rule the world as his Caliphate. Why else would he demand, "Convert or die" and sentence to death anyone who gave up Islam? If he didn't, who would buy his product or use it for long? That is why radical Islam hates capitalism- because it is based on the free choice of the individual. There's no freedom in radical Islam. The very word islam is Arabic for submission.
