Parents can’t control how three year old children see the world.

Of all the things I got scared of as a child, there was a “Whirleybirds” episode where a gorilla escaped and traveled across the countryside.

I had nightmares about gorillas for years. My Grandparents and brother tried to console me. It didn’t work.

Just one of those nightmares consisted of hundreds of gorillas swarming our farm-house out of the woods across the dirt road.

We happened to live in countryside that looked like the scenes from the program.

Kids are irrational. They do stupid things. I spent months laying in bed going to sleep at night with my back to one side of the bed, certain gorillas were on the other side waiting to pounce. After a few months the gorillas changed sides and I fell asleep facing the other direction.

This judge is a fool.

That little girl has every right to feel the way she does. Later in life she’ll grow out of it.

Not Likely, And I wouldn’t blame her in the least bit. Myself and most of my friends never got over forced desegregation from the early 70’s. Funny thing is we had black people in our neighborhood but they were normal middle class folks just like us, and we had NO Problems. But they decide to bus a whole bunch of Criminal, Gang Banger, Thugs that were black to our schools.

Maybe she won't grow out of it.

The home invader's microagressive and macroagressive behavior imprinted upon her. The home invader should have to go to some sort of social justice counseling to discover how his actions could be misconstrued by those around him.
