An Arizona School told students that they could not have prom, and could not invite more than two guests to their graduation due to COVID 19. That same school district had party, celebrating the retirement of their superintendent. One parent was especially angry.
Fox News reported: “A parent of five children (Jenifer Alvey) in the Chandler Unified School District in Arizona blasted the district’s “double standard” for hosting a retirement party for the superintendent while canceling prom and limiting attendance at the graduation ceremony for seniors due to the coronavirus pandemic.”
“But we’re also OK with going ahead and having a reception with food, buses, transporting guests in [with] everyone in close quarters on those buses, to celebrate our retiring superintendent,” Alvey said
This is a double standard that we have seen throughout the duration of this pandemic. People in power setting rules and then either violating those rules, or carelessly violating their own advice and reasoning.
From Governor Andrew Cuomo violating his own mask mandate, or Nancy Pelosi getting an illegal hair treatment, to Gavin Newsom dining indoors at a restaurant in a restricted area.
Laws for thee, but not for me. Do as a say, not as I do. This is the reality modern Americans are left to cope with.
