    People like to find the exception.

     “Wearing gloves when working helps reduces blisters.”

    “Well, I know a person who got their hand chopped off because they wore gloves.  Therefore, wearing gloves is bad! ” 

    There’s always an exception to everything.  Just because one person had an ill effect, doesn’t mean everyone will.  Yet the news media will harp on that one exception until people start believing that it’s the majority.

    So that's all it is? OK then. I can understand that. I just thought it purposeful hardnosed defiance. Thank you for that insight Shuhak. I appreciate it. It makes me less grumpy to know that so the next time I see it I'll be way more cool! :)

    Well maybe not. Everytime I talk about trump I will get a WHADDABOUT someone else entirely. That frosts me bigly. This post was edited by RosieG at June 29, 2020 3:29 PM MDT
