Sorry, sometimes we forget that the entire world doesn't revolve around our
24-hour news cycle, and if I recall you're from that odd foreign country where
people mash bangers (whatever they are) and walk around saying "yoicks!" and
"tally-ho!" and such things. Let me clarify:
The US has a president, and a vocal minority of the opposition party are
convinced he is the Second Coming of Hitler (literally), having recently been
thawed out from his orbital cryogenic womb. The president made a ten-minute
video presentation to school children that was to be delivered yesterday, and
said bat-guano minority threatened to "take our kids out of school to protect
their incredibly fragile minds from his commie indoctrination!!!", so in my
state (like a Province, but moreso) the school board issued a directive that
schools would have to get permission from the parents of all the students - in
the 24 hours before a holiday weekend - (alternately, the principal of the
school could choose to hit him/herself in the face with a bat for three hours,
but he had to have the act videotaped and notarized).
So, in the end, the tinfoil-wearing parents of my state successfully protected
my children from being exposed to this life-altering video clip, thereby saving
them from a lifetime of servitude as sex-slaves in the state-run child
whorehouses that will be the inevitable end-result of the current alien
dictatorship.
Is the snark-free version more clear?
