In San Francisco, Virus is Contained but Schools Are Still Closed

[Gene C]

This could be a little long, but I think I have found a solution.
We can't give schools a persons name, we don't want to point out someone's good characteristics to give the children something to aspire to. We have to point out their shortcomings, mistakes they might have made. It seems, according to the school officials in charge of all this, people who have achieved something, helped others improve their lives, have in the minds of the school officials done some pretty rotten stuff. These people we have named many of our schools after don't deserve that honor and are offensive. At least that's what they want us to believe.

We can't name a school after an animal, for pretty much the same reasons. And animals shed, molt, leave messes on sidewalks, cars, in parks and lawns, some even smell bad. The animal rights people will find something to be offended by. Some animals are dangerous. Snakes, cougars, wild cats, dogs, even bears. Soon we can be offended that a vicious bear is on the California state flag and demand it be removed and replaced by a jelly bean. Whoops, can't do that because Ronald Reagan liked jelly beans and had a large jar of them on his desk. They are full of sugar, and that's not good for your health. We can move on to that after this school name change gets fixed.

It's quite a problem. What's a highly intelligent, someone who has been selected because their smart, supposed to do? How can an egocentric, attention grabbing public servant use this opportunity to to their advantage? How do you reach a solution without solving the problem.

The answer is relatively simple, which is probably why they haven't thought about it. It doesn't require an expensive education at a prestigious school. It doesn't require a high IQ, which is why I figured it out. It doesn't make one look wise and understanding, which is why it will never be tried.

Let's first look at what has happened. School officials have created a problem where none existed, over emphasized the seriousness of this self created problem, and shown to the public that they are the ones to correct this terrible injustice. Not only that, they have stirred up the public, grabbed the attention of local media, and gained national attention. Ergo, they have fed their ego.

What will happen next? What's my insight into this issue?
That all depends. It depends on what television network offers me a job as a consultant for this exciting new made for tv, drama series.
I'm not greedy, I will demand that David and Rob be hired too as writers and consultants. Who knows, we might even be able to write this forum into part of the story.

I hope Lincoln Man is right, there could be no end to this renaming.
So stayed tuned for future developments. We might need some help with product merchandising
