I wonder, though: At what point for the sake of statistics and current real world impact do we reset the calendar of cases? A lot occurrences can happen in life simply because of time. Eventually everybody will have the flu or a have a tooth cavity or a car wreck (exaggeration, of course, but...

But Bwelbo — and I know you look at all sides — there are so many articles and statements like this: https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2020/04/data-do-not-back-cloth-masks-limit-covid-19-experts-say And so science specifically with respect to Covid and masks is definitely not certain...

Okay, you’re parsing literals here instead of focusing on the essential point that a majority across all demographics, shapes, sizes and creeds aren’t social distancing and won’t. And you still haven’t described what your vision of a proper shutdown looks like (that includes the consideration...

Well, that’s good to know especially if a person is an At-Risk person and didn’t have access to N95. But you’re going to need to spread the word well beyond Swarm .. there’s likely many millions of people who haven’t seen this!

Thank you for the reference. Sadly, I think you know that there are also experts and agencies that say cloth masks are not particularly effective. Particularly with the variables of it being used properly, etc. Moreover, even agencies that do publicly emphasize any type of mask will footnote...

I didn’t say it was a failure if only one person doesn’t abide. But to your point sure I could have been specific with a number: I don’t believe 80% would ever adhere to a true shutdown. Now: You said the shutdown would have been successful if some properly. This too is a straw man of...

Thank you! That’s exactly my point (and I’m not surprised it came from you vs the regular social justice warriors): when the media and social constructs insist of the proper masks. Or, as Milwaukee has indicated: when will those who are of greatest risk take personal responsibility and...

Well — again — no one here needs to be reminded again of biology and how the virus can be spread. And that was never my question. To your point — and it’s precisely my whole point of this — unless you’re wearing N95 it’s not making much, if any, difference. What we have now is most of society...

But Bobongo, while in theory this makes sense really the only POSSIBLE way it would work would be to literally have every single 330M citizens quarantine for 14 days. And nobody is let inside the country .. period. But obviously there is zero chance of either happening .. ever. So the notion...

The error in that logic is that as big of this country is both in population and land mass — and because the virus incidents are no way consistent across communities — that systemic shutdowns punish and destroy a lot of livelihoods as collateral damage. Really shutdowns are a lazy and...

‘Thanks for replying..but I guess it doesn’t entirely address my point. Which is that, from my observation, many who are wearing masks look to be the cheap shop masks from Home Depot or home-grown varieties. Likewise.. are so many of the pop up (opportunist?) advertising masks online (from...

Question to the many of you who have followed this closely throughout: In the early stages and the beginnings of the mask wearing there was quite a bit of chatter that most masks — the hankies, bandanas, cheap Home Depot shop masks — were essentially worthless against Covid. Indeed I think...

You don’t even know how you’re using the word here. But I do know the word — and don’t be obtuse.

Survey says: It’s a noose Question: What is the historical purpose of a noose? Why would a person (at any time) go through the trouble of forming a noose? For a Door Handle? Reminder: This was Alabama. Some things just are what they are even as an aberration. Even when it’s not for...

Man, ain’t it the truth about all this.

You seem to believe that this just a random young black dude out for an afternoon jog. Other social media shows a break in, which was preceded by other break ins. There seems to have been a 911 call regarding the young breaking in. You seem to only consider the young man was killed...

Thanks. Really. You definitely would have a grasp of the law and legal matters than I. So ... Thanks. It’s a shame the law isn’t more cut and dry. To your point, it often seems more about the presentation and competence of the litigators — not to mention the jurors....which would scare the...

Yes, I hear what you’re saying (and for sure we’ve all read it from you about a dozen+ times on the thread). I guess my question — and I posted similarly a sec ago — does one lead to another? In other words, could McMichaels be found guilty of whatever is “illegal pursuit”, but decidedly not...

So, do you think the charges will go, 1) aggravated assault, because you can’t go around pointing guns at people, +2) felony murder because someone died @1? Just asking, really. Does one charge guilty lead another charge of guilty?

And that’s a deep as you can think and consider the backdrop of what preceded? That’s just willful simplification and gross ignorance.
