In Charles County, Maryland, public educators and safety personnel went out of their way to provide an enhanced Christmas for a single mother holding two jobs living out of a motel room.
Interestingly, the WRC 4 coverage of the outreach deliberately avoided detailing the background of this recipient of eleemosynary.
For example, the most obvious question coming into the mind of the average viewer not having been conditioned by bureaucratic reeducators is where is the father in the midst of this hardship?
Relatedly, in the age of Maury Povich, since this woman has multiple children, are there also multiple fathers involved?
Maybe if she had taken two jobs prior to procreating, this woman wouldn't have had the time nor the energy necessary to spawn in the first place.
Perhaps this woman should have had a better taste in men instead of now expecting the men that actually have jobs and work for a living to pick up the slack left dangling by the deadbeats.
This woman was no doubt informed of the pending arrival of this Christmas charity over her latest iteration of the Iphone.
Most will no doubt be peeved about the discerning raising these kinds of issues.
No doubt Biblical admonitions about doing unto the least of these and such will be readily raised.
Interestingly, seldom is the one mentioned that points out that those unwilling to provide for their own children are worse than an infidel.
