Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:

 

Johns Hopkins Students Claim Giving Freshmen Letter Grades Will Cause a Mental-Health Crisis ~ Apparently these fragile children must be protected from reality as long as possible.
 
Which will eventually lead to this ➡ Residents unnerved by adult baby store in Chicago suburb (New franchise opportunity?!) ~

Some residents of a Chicago suburb are calling for the removal of a business catering to adults who enjoy acting like and being treated as babies.

(These would be the remaining SANE residents of that Chicago suburb.)

 
Assisted Suicide Will be Legal in California Tomorrow (Thursday,June 9th), Targeting the Elderly and Disabled ~ So many valid concerns – not the least of which is the value of each unique human life – are being ignored in the rush to allow people to kill themselves. Why?
 
Because the “Golden State” is rapidly slipping into darkness ~ Satanist Democrat runs for California state Senate ~ Evil on the ascendancy.
 
Obama’s Refugee Policy: Yes to Potential Terrorists, No to Genocide Victims ~ The true refugees are left behind as ISIS fodder ~

As Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) put it this March, “Without doubt, Syrians of all confessions are being victimized by this savage war and are facing unimaginable suffering. But only Christians and other religious minorities are the deliberate targets of systematic persecution and genocide.”

 
Christians Told To ‘Pray In Silence… Don’t Disturb The Migrants’ ~ I don’t believe Christ meant charity to come at the price of cultural suicide. Christians are called to be “salt and light” in their communities – not compliant cowards.
 
FBI Suspect Claims Democrat Nomination ~ Don’t you just love that headline? ~

A weak candidate whose popularity is waning and who might be indicted on federal charges of mishandling classified information took to a New York City stage Tuesday night to announce she is now the presumptive nominee for the Democrat Party. Hillary Clinton claimed the title after she won the primaries for sizable states like California and New Jersey. As if it mattered. The Leftmedia gave the struggling candidate a boost by declaring victory Monday before the voters even headed to the polls Tuesday.

MEMPHIS — A teenage boy in Tennessee used hard work, planning and dedication to earn enough money to pay for college before he even starts.
 
“I just stay away from the negativity and try to always be positive,” Kevuntez King told WHBQ […]
From age 12 to 17, King sold newspapers with one goal: earn enough to pay for his entire college education. And he did just that […]
 
King has this piece of advice to share: “Make sure you surround yourself with people that’s trying to go up in life and not trying to bring you down. Just stay positive and always believe in yourself and push for it.”
