Do they call this "Happy Whoever Day" in the ghetto?

In social media posts about the assault, the Louisville Metro Police Department released photos of the attacker and asked for the public to help identifying him.
The suspect appears to be a black male.
On Father’s Day, 2020, the Deseret News published an op-ed from its entire editorial board headlined, “In our opinion: The world must reenthrone the vital role of fathers.” It is telling they felt it necessary to include the trigger warning “In our opinion” on what was already clearly labeled an opinion piece and lodged firmly in the op-ed section. ...
It’s equally suggestive that, in its leading sentence above, Deseret first blamed “the world” for the war against fathers, but then in its immediately following sentence, identified the war’s shock troops: media. Of course, media is an agglomeration of actors and not any singular villain.
But who, or what, had the juice to corral media onto the same page and pin them there, for over forty years now? Was the media’s war on fathers merely a reflection of an ailing culture, the symptom of an anti-establishment, anti-authoritarian zeitgeist? Or was it something more? Something coordinated, with covert rhetorical maps and secret narrative battle plans?
The law was quickly recruited to the media’s anti-father battle. The government created a new category, a lonely, historical first without any matching marital companion: the “deadbeat dad.” Legal rules and civil punishments tied fathers down tighter than a thousand tiny Lilliputians tying down Gulliver. ...
Social media favored by young men is packed with lengthy essays detailing all the perceived risks of fatherhood — divorce, alimony, child support, ostracism, and jail. In other words, boys are being discouraged to avoid becoming dads in the first place.
Two trends from around the same time the war on fathers began offer potential explanations. First of all, in the late 60’s, the United States government became increasingly fascinated with its latest made-up crisis, overpopulation. In 1968, Stanford professor Paul Erlich published one of the most evil and destructive books ever written, The Population Bomb. Erlich’s deplorable, pseudo-scientific tome hysterically warned of mass starvation in the 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation. The professor argued forcefully for coercive measures to mitigate the ‘emergency’ and save humanity by ending it.
Erlich’s book became an instant bestseller, especially among champagne-swilling elites. Not coincidentally, five years later in 1973, Roe v. Wade launched the abortion industry in this country.
This instant obsession with the ‘crisis’ of overpopulation preoccupied officials of that time. It was all they could think about. One illustrative example of the credulous acceptance of Erlich’s demonic premise appeared in the scholarly 1971 article published in the Hastings Law Journal, titled “The Population Explosion and United States Law.” ...
The Population Office quickly started scoring successes. In 1975, India’s Prime Minister Indira Gandhi declared a population emergency (1975–77), suspending civil liberties, and mandating 11 million sterilizations. China’s notorious one‐child policy (1979–2015) resulted in mandates for over 300 million Chinese women to implant irremovable IUDs, over 100 million sterilizations, over 300 million abortions (many coerced), and constant, unavoidable, deafening propaganda. ...
That these historically unprecedented trends traveled together is inarguable. The War on Fathers (and against the Father) is part and parcel with the government’s insane, definitionally self-destructive war on overpopulation.

Sure I had to play grill master, but we couldn't have had a better meal if we ate at the Four Seasons.
