[ANNA SPRING @annaspringster]

@EndWokeness Oh sure that’ll take care of it. How about you hold the teenagers accountable & their parents & arrest them!!!

@mattvanswol New leadership is desperately needed to take care of this lawlessness! But I won’t hold my breath:(

🚨OH. MY. GOSH!!!

An absolutely MASSIVE "teen takeover" at a park in Detroit erupted MASS BRAWLS, SMASHING WINDOWS, and ended with a 16-year-old being shot.

Residents say they are TERRIFIED about the summer months and don't know what to do.

WE DON'T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!

@CBSSunday @DrBiden Sadly they believe their own lies!

[ANNA SPRING @annaspringster]

@NUCLRGOLF Sadly that’s what happens way too often. Of course we’re actually marshalled they would be told to let you thru. So much for a gentlemen’s game:(

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

If a student is failing, has 25 absences and 58 tardies, and the administrator’s first question is, “What could the teacher be doing differently?” then we’re asking the wrong questions.

🚨BREAKING: 21 people shot, including children across Chicago so far this weekend, mass shooting last night & 5 police officers hospitalized after being mowed down by an 18-year-old at a teen takeover on the West Side.

Chicago is a total war zone ruled by Democrats.

@NBCGolfChannel would you stop showing Scottie walking & playing every shot. In case you haven’t noticed there’s a couple other golfers in the lead. The bias is so obvious!

July 26, 2020. A beach near Collingwood, Ontario.

Sixteen-year-old Jamey Ruth Klassen was supposed to be enjoying a quiet family vacation beside the icy blue waters of Georgian Bay.

Farther out on the lake, a man named Christopher Robertson had taken his kayak out alone for a peaceful paddle. Then the kayak filled with water and flipped.

Suddenly, he was stranded in the freezing bay, clinging desperately to the overturned hull while shouting for help.

Jamey didn’t hear him directly.

What she heard instead were strangers nearby calling 911, panicking about a kayaker who had disappeared beneath the surface and wasn’t coming back up.

Most teenagers would’ve stayed on shore.

The water was brutally cold. The distance looked impossible. Lifeguards and paramedics were already being called. Waiting would’ve been understandable.

Jamey never waited.

She ran toward the water and dove in.

Alone, she swam nearly 600 feet through Georgian Bay — the distance of two football fields — pushing herself farther and farther from shore toward the empty kayak floating in the distance.

By the time she reached it, Christopher Robertson was gone.

Then Jamey looked down.

Through the clear Canadian water, she could see him lying motionless twelve feet below on the lake floor.

She took one breath.

And dove.

The cold tightened around her body instantly as she reached the bottom. She grabbed Robertson beneath both arms and forced herself upward, dragging his unconscious body back toward the surface.

He wasn’t breathing.

His body hung limp in the water.

Jamey refused to let go.

She turned him onto his back, balanced his head against her shoulder, wrapped one arm across his chest, and began swimming him toward shore using only one arm and her legs.

Every second became harder.

Her muscles burned violently. Her lungs screamed. She had no formal lifeguard certification because the pandemic had canceled the courses she planned to take that summer.

Still, she kept kicking.

Then fear hit her.

Jamey realized she might drown beside him before reaching shore.

Exhausted and losing strength, she used the last thing she still had left:

Her voice.

She screamed for help.

A nearby paddleboarder heard her cries and rushed across the water. Together, they lifted Robertson onto the board while Jamey, shivering and exhausted, swam the remaining distance alone.

Onshore, police officers and paramedics immediately began CPR.

Moments later, Christopher Robertson started breathing again.

He survived.

Nearly a year later, Jamey Ruth Klassen received the Carnegie Medal — North America’s highest civilian honor for heroism. Out of millions of people, only eighteen recipients were chosen that year.

But Jamey barely spoke about herself afterward.

Instead, she used the scholarship money from the award to attend nursing school at McMaster University, quietly continuing the same instinct that had driven her into the freezing water that day:

If someone needs help, you go.

No hesitation.
No spotlight.
No waiting for someone braver.

Just a sixteen-year-old girl who saw a stranger drowning… and decided his life mattered more than her fear.

🇺🇸 Just in case you forgot why you have a three-day weekend…

This is it.

Not the barbecues. Not the beach trips. Not the sales.

This is the reason.

The folded flag. The final salute. The ultimate sacrifice so the rest of us could be free.

This Memorial Day, we honor the fallen.

We remember their names. And we never take this freedom for granted.

[David Asman @DavidAsmanfox]

If you’re pulling into a gas station this Memorial Weekend, complaining about the inconvenience of paying more at the pump…consider the sacrifice of the soldier, sailor, or Marine, making their sacrifices for our lives and our freedom. Exchange your complaint for a prayer.

@WakeWGolf We know you’ll play hard. Enjoy & play the best you can. You’ve done this before with so much grit & great play 🎩🇺🇸

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

There were massive international protests over George Floyd and those police involved were severely punished with long prison sentences, yet the police responsible here did not even lose their jobs!

An incredibly unjust double-standard!

@GolfweekNichols Wonderful story of perseverance 👏
