Earlier this year, a Grant, Michigan, high school sophomore won a contest “to brighten up” the middle school health center, according to a statement from Grant Public Schools (GPS). GPS says the student received approval to paint images of “smiling children” and as well as the message “Stay Healthy.”
In the painting, there are three children. A boy is seen in a light blue, pink and white T-shirt, the colors of the transgender Pride flag. A girl wears pink, royal blue and purple, the colors of the bisexual flag. And a second girl is in rainbow Pride colors.
After taking the time to actually look at the mural, I am failing to find what can be so uplifting about it. Why are there needles in it? I find it difficult to believe this is the best image drawn, because I am failing to find a positive message in it...

It's a "make believe" message like the rest of our reality today.
What she painted was not what she submitted and approved.
Yeah, she added a Hand of Hamsa. Big deal. If people are upset over this tenth grader's design, I can only imagine complete apoplexy when confronted with something like [URL="https://magsonthemove.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/image57.jpg"]this mural[/URL] that greets travelers through my city's airport, and that's before they even see the demon horse on the drive out.

The mural is about health. The needle represents vaccines or medication shots. Even kids get insulin shots or carry epipens.
Did you notice all the healthcare professionals are animals? Is there a hidden meaning to that also?
