  "It's. It's. Pardon me. I had to stop and wave to one of my children. That always drives by me when I'm standing out here. But, yeah, we need to get to the root. And the root is that we are a very violent society in America. We glorify guns and war, and we need to change the whole mindset, and we need to really tighten down access."

  "Those who are innocent and pure, they have removed the element of prayer and spirituality from their education process. And so what did they replace that with? I don't know specific details about curriculum. I just remember that when I went to school, we were allowed to pray. We were allowed to have a moment of silence to reflect or to pray. And if we wanted to say the name of Jesus, it was okay."

  "Schools are closing across the US due to violence. I work in a school on the east coast in New England, and no, they have not been closing due to violence. They've been out of control over the last couple of years because God forbid if administration disciplines them. The school that I have been instructing at last year, the majority of the bathrooms were vandalized, worth, I believe, $50,000 worth of damage where they had to lock every bathroom, including staff."

  "It's amazing to think how this started, but where we're at right now is not a good spot. And I certainly hope that these are just isolated instances and we're not seeing a bigger trend that is going to start snowballing. However, it's in the back of my mind and I am very, very concerned about it. And I am concerned about election day and what might happen on election day. I think it could get ugly for the next 60 days here."

  "They're alcoholics, they're drug addicts. That's not the case. The case is that their children cannot go to school. The schools are being closed down. It's not even a choice. They cannot go to school, which means at least one of the parents can't work. Or they have to have a latchkey kid at the age of five that eats peanut butter sandwiches every day for lunch, or it's this big mess. So we know what isn't working."

  "Don't like them. But this right here is appalling because if someone is homeless and they don't have anywhere to go and if they want to sit down, I mean, their body needs to rest and on a bench and fall asleep during the daytime because you make them get up during the night so you can't be here, then they do that. Right. So when they were allowed to put the encampments up, what she said was okay, right. And they had an area for it."

  "Critical thinking doesn't mean, oh, you got to think hard. It's important. It's a damn skill and it's something that you must apply. Again, distinct stuff. It's research. It's actually you doing the thinking. You're doing everything and then some more than, and you're using the AI's and the computers as a tool, not your actual you're acting as if it's way smarter and it's giving you factual information."

• September 14, 2024@Phil | What are your thoughts on immigration and assimilation?

  Click here to reply to @Phil
  
  "And a lot of things that may make sense if we're watching a Scooby Doo cartoon, but this is reality. When we talk about assimilating into the US, you're really missing out on some cultures that can actually pick up in the United States. Take, for example, in the 1940s, when italian immigrants came over and all of a sudden started introducing us to their food called pizza. Where would we be if these italian immigrants came over and assimilated and just ate hot dogs and hamburgers?"

  "And nowhere do we see that more than in the world of politics, where candidates have embraced conspiracy theories and had success, gotten money from their constituencies, and really kind of thrived in the world of embracing conspiracy theories and mistruths. But it seems like everybody has their own individual breaking point. It is. There seems to be that there comes a time when there is a tipping point to every, every good or bad thing. And I think this question is really relevant as I watch through the debate."

  "And people saying things like, oh, well, this is my truth, and I'm sorry, there is black and white. All right? Just like the laws of gravity, there is laws, or there are laws in how to prove something is real or not. And so what really annoys me is that people go to school for, you know, ten plus years to get a doctorate degree and learn how to create and consume this type of science and research and data release reporting on that."
