nice fiction, AC. Never happened.

A coworker was bragging to us how even in elementrary school he and his friends would "take a girl behind the bushes" with multiple targets. Look that phrase up. Maybe parents don't want their kids subjected to thugs, gangsters, rapists, thieves, junkies in training. "Protection from the world" you mock, yet we have armed forces and police.

But you're talking to people taking the time to homeschool, not those dumping kids into a public babysitying service . They care more about their kids than that.

You left out getting crimes committed against them by gang members and other thugs of a lowlife subculture. Add to that the mentally ill with access to weapons. Savages are dangerous.

you've described what our big cities have with public education.

There are great public schools but there are too many farce ones, especially in the biggest cities. The quality as measured by tests shows the USA falling in rank over decades, strangley coinciding with the establishment of the Dept of Education.

that is called lying and hurt the cause of convincing people to get vaccinated. better outcome was the only reason to get vaccination, transmission and infection happened to the vaccinated.

wrong, the covid vaccines didn't prevent infection or shedding of viruses, only gave much better odds of survival and less damage to the body after infection. A vacinated infected person could spread the disease. The benefits are to the vaccinated person.

the covid vaccines don't prevent infection and shedding of viruses, they do provably increase your chances of survival and decreases risk and amount of damage to your body.

AI is used via internet over state lines, that is federal domain. Congress is tasked with regulating that though.

Lolz we need to "compete with China"? Why? Because you said so? There are realms we can't compete, rare earths mining and production is one. We already are losing and lost there and that won't change for over a decade or more. Lithium ion batteries, ditto. Electronics ditto.

The internet crosses state lines and costs money. It is interstate commerce. But power to regulate is given to Congress

Haha, "truth" and AI spew ? Let me help you, output of a language model isn't "truth" anyway.

so one DEA agent off duty had his firearm, and another person was on the grounds

No one in the capitol building had firearm?

Some "insurrection".

this measles problem is a Mennonite thing though, and shame on the more conservative of them opposed to vaccination since their religion has no prohibition. It's similar but worse situation to some of the orthodox Jews in Brooklyn in a 2019 measles outbreak who were against vaccination when even their own rabbis were saying that was a bad stance violating "love your friend as yourself."
