We Must Protect This House

At our library system we allow people to bring drinks into the building. But I've known people to spike their QT quarts and the like in order to sneak alcohol into places they're not supposed to. So I've been thinking that maybe that could happen at our library. And maybe someone could even share such a concoction with a child at the library. So it only makes sense, then, that to make sure this never happens we stop allowing people to bring drinks into the library. This is just not the kind of place where kids should be getting drunk.

And while talking is already frowned upon at libraries, we do allow a reasonable amount of it. I've even heard the odd curse word here and there. And if I've heard that, it's possible that children in the library have heard it as well. But we must protect their innocent ears from such a thing ever happening again. The only solution that really makes sense is to ban all talking at the library. That way we can be sure that no profanity will ever be uttered in the presence of a child.

And while I've never seen this happen, I do know I've read of an instance or two where men have exposed themselves to children while in libraries. This cannot happen. But you can't ever tell which men might be vile enough to do such a thing just by looking at them, so the only surefire way to really protect our children from such predators is to ban all men from all libraries. It just makes sense.

Oh, and we should most definitely pass and enact DOPA.
