The degree to which you wish to shield your children is your business. But to suggest that these trucks are “targeting” children is rather disingenuious on your part. They are no more targeting children than the beer trucks delivering beer in our neighborhoods, or the taxis that advertise stip clubs with skanky women in the ads. Maybe we should ban them to age appropriate areas also?
And what may be too mature for your son may not be too mature for my neighbor’s intellectual little darling son who was shooting a bb gun at 6, firing a .22 at 8, and dressing a deer at 12, who devours truth, quotes God’s Word accurately, debates liberalsim, and plainly calls leftist ideas what they are at 13 years old. So age apropriate is a relative matter.
Probably best to keep your son indoors for a few more years so he doesn’t have to witness the homos walking hand in hand and french kissign at Disney World, the prostitutes hustling business on the main drag, the homeless guys panhandleing, the bunnies, doggies, kitties, and squirrels that frequently get hit by cars and are left to die horrible bloody deaths on the side of our nation’s roads.
But wouldn’t it be better to use those harsh reality moments in life as teaching moments for your son rather than pretending they don’t exist? The perfect opportunity to teach your son what the difference is between the truth and the lies that he will be confronting VERY soon...like in a matter of a year or two when he is in school!
In a few years planned barrenhood will already be teaching him non “age-appropriate” things when he is in school and so will his teachers, and his class mates, and his neighbors, and the television. Don’t you want a head start against their propaganda?
And exactly where are these mythical “age-appropriate” free speech zones you wish to create? And why would an alleged conservative be afraid of someone speaking freely? Because someone might be offended? Well, the truth does indeed hurt, but the lies hurt much more. So, in the name of tollerance and so as to not offend some, people should have their right to free speech infringed? I think not.
But, I digress...you certainly may shield your son as you wish. You are, after all, his mommy.
However, your hypocricy remains, in your talk of censorship. “Censorship for thee, but not for me” is the mantra that you proclaim in your contradicitions.
You complain about policial correctness when it comes to Disney cartoons being censored, but have ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM censoring the photos showing the truth about abortion...namely, that it is the act of murdering innocent children...and you actually do it in the mane of not wanting to offend children. Too late...the ones in the photos were already offended. VERY offended ma’am.
If you care so much about children, then do not censor the truth. Let everyone see the holocaust in our midst. because the baby killers are winning the war of words, but they CANNOT win the war of photos. Even the pro-baby-death woman in the articel testifies to this truth when she said; “In those circumstances there’s no opportunity for meaningful discussion or debate”. She knows that the photos damage her arguments.
We homeschool, thanks.
