I think it is shameful what the left has done to this country.

As a man, I am not allowed to interact with children who are not my own. I can’t say hello to them, I can barely even make eye contact with them without having some overprotective mother think their child is in danger and usher them away while giving me dirty or worried looks.

And that has been instilled in a couple of generations of children (and parents now)

I hate it.

This is just another example. My wife paints, and occasionally she asks me to take a picture of something or someone because she thinks it will make a good subject, but I feel extremely uneasy about it, never mind asking permission.

Now this coronavirus crap and social distancing. I find this whole weirdness of interactions with other people in our society to be repellent.

I believe this is by design, and I too find it to be extraordinarily evil and destructive. The entire "stranger danger" drumbeat hurts my heart, because children are our most precious gift from God, and we should all do what we can to make kids feel safe, happy, and loved, even if we don't know them well.
