He said that to warn me that what I thought was good protection wasn't. I thanked him for his kindness in going out of his way for a perfect stranger.Today is our Walmart shopping day and I'm going to wear TWO masks and the face shield because of him.Anything remotely like that happen to you too? less

None. They see him as a lying evildoer. Nothing more.So how can so many be terrified and so many not? There has to be a reason why right?

Libertarians are skeptical of authority and power but some of them diverge on the scope of their opposition to existing political systems.NOW I KNOW WHY I am not a fan.No where is there any seeking truth or cooperation or conciliation. There is no "where" there for them. Only self. No working together for a common goal. Only what do I get out of it? What's in for me? Get out of my way. I care only about me not you. Get a life.My way or the highway. Give me liberty or give me death.Society only works when its members COOPERATE with one another. Having members go off half-cocked on their own seeking AUTONOMY is anathema to me. SELFISH SELF-SERVING SELF-ABSORBED SELF-AGGRANDIZING.

There are many versions of "the truth" as there are political patisans.The FOOTOO adoring worshippers believe the FOOTOO version of truth to the exclusion of everything and everyone.All version cannot be TRULY TRUE. Whose version is the REAL TRUTH?Well you see no one can convince anyone that his/her truth is based on lies.Sadly.

All 7 have been found in different stages. What is unknown right now is if they are more contagious or deadlier.Will the vaccines we have available be effective? I don't know and I don't know if they know.Here's the thing. If these variants keep showing up in multiples how will we ever get a handle on it to stop it or slow it down? If we have to keep focusing another recipe for another vaccine to quiet another variety of the Coronavirus where does it end?Anyone? less

Allegedly 80 boxes of his work were shipped to Belgrade and only 60 boxes arrived.Also allegedly the FBI declassified 250 pages of his captured works but still it appears that some of them are still missing.So if you had them what would you likely be doing with them?How valuable would they be? To whom and why?

If you don't like them you aren't pulling for them so why bother reading or watching anything that angrifies you?The past 4 years of FOOTOO was a lousy storyline, unbelievable "actors" or "characters" none of whom were likable. A complete waste of time.

In my county alone, there were instances of flip-flopping numbers within hours of initial reports when it was discovered that they were incorrect. Figures from January and February of 2020 were downplayed or skewed. Shutdowns of businesses, churches, schools, gyms, parks, etc. we’re based on purported percentages that were compiled by dubious or difficult-to-verify sources. Sweeping measures for contact-tracing relied on sensitive personal information that was collected by technological means without checks and balances that ensured the data wouldn’t be leaked or otherwise misused.
Now, in February 2021, allegations have surfaced that at least one governor’s administration intentionally withheld accurate COVID19 numbers in order to feign its success in addressing the pandemic. Were you, as I, also wary in general of whether or not the numbers were being reported truthfully, either in your local area, nationally, or internationally?~ less

Not because they believed he was NOT GUILTY. That did not even enter into it at all. NOT ONCE!There ya go. Guilt or innocence is IRRELEVANT. All that counts is process! MY A**! This is the gibberish blather they are spreading around to account for the egregious wrong decision. They want it both ways.They want to kiss the a**es of those who know FOOTOO (that piece of crap) is guilty as he** and they want to appease the violent white domestic terrorists who will target them for annihilation if they dare do what the right thing to do would have been. Which was to find him guilty as charged!Disgusting. less

I thought Mike Pence was highly regarded by the Evangelicals and delighted with him.Yet they had no problem sacrificing him on the altar of FOOTOO. GONE or almost. HANGED or almost. A NOOSE WAS SET UP FOR HIM. Where is the outrage from the ever so religious devoted GOD believers? I have heard NONE! ZERO!So much for thinking that at least EVANGELICALS could be supportive of Mike Pence...one of their own.What will I be wrong about again next? Beats me.So I guess Mike Pence will always have a price on his head and a noose with his name on it until he dies.Nancy Pelosi too but that doesn't SHOCK me nearly as much. Nancy has always been "the enemy" right?But MIKE? I wonder how he feels about the terrible betrayal of them. He probably knew all along that FOOTOO would turn on him but he did his job in spite of it. But to have NO OUTCRY from Evangelicals? That must hurt him terribly. less
