My Commentary: Synethesia? Awesome, either way!
The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post, “State Schools Have ‘Zero Tolerance’… for Genuine, Organic Achievements, That Is!“…

Children must be taught to comply, to conform, to regiment, and to be held the standard of the “average,” or else, risk butting heads with gate-keeping, authoritarian government mercenaries!
Sara: Someone should start a fundraiser for her to attend private school. She deserves a scholarship.
Jason R.: that’s the way society is, and in order to change society everyone needs to agree!
Jason R.: However, it’s a sad how many people agree with the wrong things. It’s time to let people just be!

(Petula Dvorak, Washington Post) Avery Gagliano is a commanding young pianist who attacks Chopin with the focused diligence of a master craftsman and the grace of a ballet dancer.
The prodigy, who just turned 13, was one of 12 musicians selected from across the globe to play at a prestigious event in Munich last year and has won competitions and headlined with orchestras nationwide.
But to the D.C. public school system, the eighth-grader from Mount Pleasant is also a truant. Yes, you read that right. Avery’s amazing talent and straight-A grades at Alice Deal Middle School earned her no slack from school officials, despite her parents’ begging and pleading for an exception.
My Commentary: As always, State schools have “zero tolerance” for genuine, organic achievements! Children must be taught to comply, to conform, to regiment, and to be held the standard of the “average,” or else, risk butting heads with gate-keeping, authoritarian government mercenaries!
The following debate originally took place upon the Facebook wall of family, after they shared a photo they took…
Sara: Wtf is this? Is he about to shoot up the train?
Man with paintball gun safely zip-tied travels on MTA
Sulv M.: OMG!!! thats scary. is that real
Sara: Yes, dude looks very serious too. I don’t even wanna get on the same train as him.
Sulv M.: why would he be out with that? maybe you should tell a cop
Sara: Its like he’s showing off. The gun looks rigged with some kind of zip tie but I can’t tell what type of weapon it is. I’m on the train now. I just hope he’s not on the same one.
Janelle F.: Holy shit. I would’ve called the cops.
Sulv M.: thats scary! looks real. its illegal to have a fake black gun so he could get in trouble if its fake.
Thomas P.: I wouldn’t even take a chance. I would just call it in and wait for the next train.
Mark K.: It’s probably a paintball gun.
Sara: Mark, that’s what I was thinking but dumb move to be walking around like that looking like a psycho.
Genaire: Paintball gun. You can see the screw area for the co2 canister.
Janelle F.: Well, I still wouldn’t go anywhere near the guy. He can still shoot someone w/that thing.
George G.: Hope you waited for the next train
Sara: We’re home now. Not sure what train he got on but it was a paintball gun according to my friends here. Either way I’m glad to be far away from him.
Sherry A.: Omg anyone could grab that
Thomas P.: Common sense would dictate that isn’t the way you would walk around these days.
Genaire: Common sense would actually dictate that you would get into more trouble from attempting to conceal the weapon.
Thomas P.: Question is- is it a weapon?
Janelle F.: Read up to the convo about it being a paintball gun. ^^
Genaire: Paintball guns can do serious harm. With this stop and frisk nypd seems keen on doing I would want my paintball gun on full display.
Rayn: It’s just a paintball gun, so calling the cops is the ultimate slave’s answer! Such a move would only give NYPD thugs the opportunity to engage in another tax-funded public execution of a peaceful, innocent individual! (Click Here to Continue Reading This Post)
As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “The Liberty Revolution,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…
“One of these men bombed Iraq. The other did, too.”
My Commentary: War pigs…
