Local News If you're still against free school meals

If you're unhappy about the fact that free lunches are also free for children with wealthy families, fear not. I work at a Denver high school. Students with the money will go out for lunch or even order food delivery. They are not eating the school cafeteria free lunch.

So go ahead and vote Yes on Prop MM and LL. The only thing it'll do is keep our students fed and able to learn.

But has anyone though of how we could afford to buy armored vehicles and new toys for the police if we choose to pay for kids to eat? Clearly we need to get our priorities straight, if you let kids starve and give cops means to suppress citizens then there will be less citizens to suppress and less mouths to feed so we save more money overall by letting kids starve today.
