“Deputies confirm the 11-year-old boy was in his Zoom class with his microphone and camera off when he took his own life. His sister, who was distance learning in another room, found him and alerted a neighbor and her teacher, who helped call authorities. “The sheriff’s office said deputies responded to the 300 block of Sterling Street in the community of Woodbridge just after 11 a.m. to investigate a reported shooting. At the scene, a young boy with a head injury was found. The boy was rushed to a nearby hospital with his parents by his side. He later died from his injuries.”This was the suicide of a little boy, who through no fault of his own, had been long separated from his classroom schoolmates forced by adult circumstances by ‘going to school’ through streaming laid on school children by continuing government response to the Coronavirus pandemic.
“The Lodi Unified School district tells CBS13 that Woodbridge Elementary School will have class Thursday as planned but counselors will be on hand should students or faculty need that.” (CBS13)No mention of what all those affected by this tragedy need most: Fervent Prayer For Resolution.
Paul Warren, the special education director for the Lodi Unified School District, who oversees mental health services within the district: “Sometimes we go through things that are temporary emotional experiences and with the support of family and other trained people we can get through those things. It’s tragic. Everybody’s has been impacted by this.”
“Charleston police Officer Cassie Johnson, 28, had been removed from life support Wednesday after it was determined she was not expected to recover from her wounds. Her organs will be donated, officials said. “Johnson was responding to a traffic complaint on Garrison Avenue around 3 p.m. Tuesday when a suspect identified as 38-year-old Joshua Phillips allegedly shot her in the face, Kanawha County Sheriff Mike Rutherford said at a news conference Wednesday evening. “She was hospitalized in critical condition and underwent surgery until it was determined her body could not long sustain life by itself and she would be taken off life support.”
Support Canada Free Press
“Host Wolf Blitzer said, “How much damage is President Trump doing to our country, to our standing around the world, by refusing to concede and alleging widespread fraud going on all over the country?” “Romney said, “Well, the attorney general has said there’s no there, there. The courts have all looked at the evidence and said there’s no evidence there. Now, of course, there will be circumstances where one or two, or a handful, maybe even 100 ballots were incorrectly sent in or counted, and those things get adjusted and get fixed, but the idea of widespread fraud is simply not been shown to us. And if that evidence does exist, please show it to us.”
“Discussing Joe Biden, Blitzer asked, “You have accepted the fact that he will be the next president of the United States at noon on January 20, Inauguration Day?” "Romney said, “Yes.”Has Romney, and for that matter, any politician, Democrat or Republican voiced concern about the number of police officers being killed on duty? Other than the customary, no-cost “Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, have any of them been heard from on the suicide of an 11-year-old child? Anybody? And then there’s the worry of Canada Free Press columnist and dear friend so and so (whose privacy keeps me from naming him). Scheduled for a cardiologist appointment today, he was hospitalized earlier this week for high Blood Pressure. Our worry for him is that he is one of thousands of young men afflicted by health issues related to stress at a time when no one in politics or the media wants to talk about heart problems—but only about Coronavirus. We should all ignore the lies of cutthroats like Mitt Romney who will say just about anything for his own self-aggrandizement. Ditto for the dirt being thrown out daily by the mainstream and social media. Instead try for a soulful and heartfelt message to the Creator of all Earthly things: “God Help Us!”
