As temperatures continue to plummet in New York City, many schools are still forcing students to eat their lunch outside to “protect” them from Covid-19. The social distancing rules trump common sense and science in the age of Covid when leftists make the rules.
According to the NY Post:
Kids in some city schools are still eating lunch outdoors each day due to social distancing rules despite plunging temperatures and steamed parents.
“It’s getting a little ridiculous at this point,” said a mom at MS 104 in Manhattan, where kids again pulled apart their string cheese in 39-degree weather Wednesday. “They’ve eaten outdoors every day this week. It’s cold.”
A mom at a Park Slope elementary school said her child has also been dining al freezo for the entire year and began complaining about the conditions this week.
“We’ve heard no plans to bring them inside anytime soon,” she said. “In fact, they are still asking for parents to give the school their Fresh Direct bags to create seating pads. It doesn’t sound like they’re going in.”
The Department of Education allowed principals to devise their own lunch arrangements this year while complying with social distancing rules.
While some have managed to keep kids under a roof while eating, others have headed for the great outdoors.
“It’s already hard enough for a little kid to eat outside while sitting on concrete with a mask on,” said the mother of a Brooklyn fourth-grader who ate outside this week. “What does the weather have to be to go inside? How low does it have to go?”
Despite a good number of parents complaining, it’s clearly going to require more people to step up and call out this farce. Pandemic Panic Theater is as strong in New York City as it is in any city in the country, but unlike other areas it will be getting extremely cold there soon.
If a parent forced their kids to stay outside in nearly freezing weather, they’d have the state claiming child abuse. But for almighty schools under the guidance of Mayor Bill de Blasio, the state has embraced the same practice because Covid-19 might spread during lunch. This is an anti-science stance because the disease does not affect children the same way it hits adults, especially the elderly. Children are not at significant risk from Covid-19. Cold weather, on the other hand, is far more likely to cause harm to the children being abused in the NYC public school system.
How much longer will the people endure such asinine policies before they realize their government continues to make horrendous decisions? The science is clear. NYC is on the wrong side of logic on this and many other issues.
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
