What’s best for our children

Several Letters to the Editor recently have taken the current chairman of the Thomas County Commission, Mr. Mark NeSmith, to task as being “Woke” and a “book burner,” to which I would like to put in my two cents.
The entire matter is about what is best for our children. One would think that good parenting would be uppermost in a discussion of what mental food was fed them at each stage of their lives, however such was not the case in the referenced letters.
Surprisingly the Soviets in Communist Russia had it right when each night at nine o’clock their TV channel/s would play soothing music to put their young ones to bed by, while today many of ours are treated to some of the raunchiest views on our TV channels and are tender fodder for the most outrageous and harmful ideas put forth by the least interested in their well-being who actively solicit them into their promiscuity; and even some in our contry’s medical and education professions have joined this charade, encouraging our youth into doubting their God given genders, and enticing them into gender changing procedures without parental consent, some of which has found a home in our libraries. (For more information read THE MINISTRY OF CULTURE by Michael M. Mooney and copyrighted in 1980 whcih shows an “active, well-coordinated, national cultural policy”– involving more than 300 alphabet agencies… Mooney reveals how… a small elite drawn from government, academia and businesses are actively working together to create a radical new culture.”)
The only foil to all of this is oversight, and in our representative form of government that is done by those we elect; and should the people of Thomas County not agree with their actions they can replace them through the ballot box. However, my hope and my guess is that most of our citizens agree that oversight of what is on our library shelves is reasonable, and that those who want an open-border management in our library (and our schools) are in the minority.
