Saving Mama Ducks


Mama Duck quacks in despair 
Her babies are at risk of dying 
They have fallen into a drain
 A human sees her plight or hears her cry 
Seeks help from the protectors 
The police officers who serve and protect And 8 little duckies are reunited
 And quack quack all the way home 
And the moral of the story
 We each can do our part To save each other 
And respect all creatures Human and those who share lives with us 
Congrats MCPD for showing you care 

From Montgomery County Police Department 
This morning a concerned resident approached the 4D Olney Substation about a mother duck that was acting strangely near the CVS on Olney Sandy Spring Rd. It turns out her babies fell down into a storm drain. MCPD and MCFRS came to the rescue. MCFRS was able to lift the storm drain cover and MCPD Officer H. Chen reached down and saved about 8 babies. #mcpnews

Dr Jill Biden, used "figurative, allegorical" phrasing in a sentence and was shamed by the minions




{Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from the conventional order and meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it. } 

She said "Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength," Biden said." 

Today with all the newspaper headlines, The View hosts none of whom may be degreed to teach, multiple leading media outlets including the Washington Post, the vanguard of news outlets are actually making this a narrative of Tacos being compared to Latinos. 

And to think to be politically correct, Dr. Jill Biden has to apologize for using "figurative language" and how obscene, she mispronounced "bodegas". Where were all the patrol intelligencia during the daily Trumpisms of blatant and flagrant abuse, misuse, and intentional language hate aberrations?   Were she to have said, Trinis around the world are sweet as Mango Juice, we would have been elated because that is just as good as saying, Trinis are the best of who they are, wherever they are. 

Yet, Twitter and every one of these social media talking heads are on their podium of raraing, talking loud, and saying nothing, and sadly, Latinos are being incised with the rhetoric of blame and shame. 

Can we call for America to Wake UP Again. 

Next Presidential candidate, you are welcome to use this slogan
