Um, I'm sorry but is anyone going to tell this girl that:
1) unicorns aren't real
2) she only got the license because the board knows that
3) imagination and determination have much better exemplars, like this kid who built a fusion reactor in his basement:

I just feel like this sort of thing does only one thing, and it's bad: it backs up right-wing assertions that liberals are fucking nuts.
I'm assuming of course that the LA board is full of liberals - maybe I'm wrong, but it's California so there's a good chance.

1. Children are supposed to dream and not all have to dream of building a nuclear reactor. nt

3. Are you suggesting that there's something flippant

about my dragon license?

I think bringing a little joy to a child is a beautiful thing to do.
