Illiberal Thoughts

I like libraries.  I like when people bring their kids to libraries.

I don't like, though, when they bring their kids to the library and let them munch on McDonald's food at a table watching little video players playing cartoon videos loud enough to be heard thirty feet away. Surrounded by books, watching a cartoon video.

I have to admit, at least part of my ire is that both of these women looked - well, they made me think that they eat at McDonalds a lot.  I don't honestly know which irked me more - their size or the McD's/video players. Either, I guess, would have been okay.  Together.... not so much.

I do know that its the first time in a while that I left a library quickly. Illliberal, I know.
