Lessons for us all.

E.g., Tall, balding masked man in shorts brings electric scooter in with him, places order, gets it, scoots away, as quick as you please. Paid, but if he hadn’t, it would have been the Great Scooter Robbery, 7/11/21.

Or the healthy young man: large iced carmel latte with whipped cream, electric scooter parked outside in clear sight. Would also have been a great scooter robbery — notice lower case, the original would already have happened. He paid too, by the way.

New figures released by researchers in the UK show that just 25 under-18’s died from COVID from March 2020 to February 2021, two-thirds of whom had “chronic” health conditions, and that lockdown measures aimed at children “may prove a greater risk than that of SARS-CoV-2 itself.”

The numbers show that there is around a 1 in 500,000 chance of children dying from coronavirus in England, and that includes victims of pre-existing medical conditions, like heart disease and cancer.

“More than 75 per cent of the children who died had chronic conditions, while two thirds had more than one underlying condition and 60 per cent had life-limiting conditions,” reports the Daily Mail.

During the same time period, 124 children died from suicide and 268 died from trauma.

Fr. John Lovell of the Diocese of Rockford, Illinois, told Alpha News in an exclusive interview Tuesday that he believes there’s a “bishop problem” in the United States, and that priests who tell the truth are being targeted by them. “Many bishops across the country, if not most, look at their priests as a problem, as a potential lawsuit,” he said. “They don’t look at their priests as sons.”

“We see bishops wanting to look tough on protecting God’s children while protecting the lavender mafia.”
