When did the science become a good thing?
For almost forever the science said there were two sexes and almost every single one of us was born with one or the other. That science is now bad. Now awlasudden with the ‘Rona you’re a queer dude if you disregards the science. Because that science is now good So which is it now? It looks like we’re free to choose which science we agree with. Finally, choice! |
Another interesting observation, many of the "it's my body it's my choice" crowd are now trying to mandate what people do with their body.

I've also learned something new. It's "antisocial distancing". It's where people walk up to me and I say "get the he.. away from me. I don't want to talk to you". It seems to be working but it might be hurting my sales a bit. :D |

The abandonment of logic and reason is on those jumping up and down about "Masks Work you effn Maroon" (or whatever) They have singular focus. "The mask" --homemade, leaky around the edges....whatever MUST be WORN! - Else you are anti-science-ah (evangelical accent) 1918 Flu. They too had people clinging to masks as a solution. Without any govt mandate they became hugely popular. Death kept coming. Everywhere. We should all be VERY happy that this virus is not a huge threat to the majority of the population. Well, for most, exposure to the virus is a non-event. Or, go door to door Caj. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1594876788.JPG |

And this is what's so annoying about average people. You can't understand and process reality that is denigrating to your point of view. Denial. It's annoying. Do this. Pull up your big boy pants and expand your mind a little. Seriously. Do it. Stop with the insipid snarky comments, they've become boring, and grow as a person. Don't settle for average. Think about adding value, not detracting from others. Thanks.SmileWavy |

On your second piece about "rights"... Driving is a privilege. A stop sign or light stops you from using that privilege for a brief period of time. On smoking indoors, the business is forced to comply or they get a fine, not the person smoking (or that's how it works around here). A smoker can walk out the door onto a public sidewalk and smoke until their lungs explode. Not a "right" being infringed. |
Perhaps posted before. Can't remember any more. We've come a long ways baby...
https://www.influenzaarchive.org/cities/city-denver.html# "Enforcement of the mask order was another problem. Even Mayor Mills, despite going along with the proposition, did not expect widespread compliance. He was correct. The day after the mask order went into effect, only a few downtown stores were seen to be using masks. " "Most complained that they were too uncomfortable to wear and interfered with normal breathing. Others argued that gauze masks were useless against influenza.27 In the face of such opposition, there was little city hall could do to enforce the order. As Mayor Mills put it, “Why, it would take half the population to make the other half wear masks. You can’t arrest all the people, can you?”28 It appeared that Denver residents understood that the answer all too well. Mills and Sharpley therefore revised the mask order yet again, this time merely recommending that the general public wear masks while in crowds and aboard streetcars." |
The way Mike Dewine did things yesterday is how it should be done. He ASKED all Ohioans to wear a mask. I know what's coming in the future on this one but he did ask first. I wish he would have put a timeline on it like "let's do this for 4 weeks and stop the spread of this virus" It would give people a challenge and a goal to rise up and meet.

I get it. My position pisses you off and you have no other retort. UGLY and IGNORANT are YOUR claims... personally I think that your post just outted your ignorance in an ugly way, but perhaps not. So why don't you support how my saying "We should all be VERY happy that this virus is not a huge threat to the majority of the population." is both "Ugly" and Ignorant." Go. |

Project much? I mean Mr "Social Experiment" complains about others ^^^ |
To be fair island, your point that he highlights isn't correct. I saw a stat where over 60% of Americans have some form of health issue that would put them at risk if they were to get the virus. If the 60% stat is accurate, it is a huge threat to the majority of the population.
Cajun could have been a bit more eloquent in his reply. |

What percentage of the population is though to be shedding this virus? -half a percent? So then the rest of the population must wear masks (of spurious effectiveness) until... ? uhm.... ? .. . .PROFIT! Seriously, until when? Any of you mask zealots have an answer? |
Quote:
The fact is we know SO much more about this virus than when it started. Much of the Doom & Gloom Pollyanna projections proved to be FALSE. What's the Average age of death? ~80? ...with quite a few cases of people in their 90's surviving. Certainly 60% of those exposed DO NOT have sever problems. |
The I intial goal was to protect hospital resources.

And now what's the goal? (of mask programs and shut businesses) Tank the economy? Drive up the misery index? Kill off people with hospital avoidance? (undetected cancer and heart conditions...) |
