The number of confirmed cases in my home province of Manitoba just doubled a few minutes ago. Testing is available here and has been for a while.

Skydive Perris Valley has now closed all operations and the Bomb Shelter bar till at least Apr 3 when they will reassess.

The virus stolen from the level 4 lab here in Winnipeg? There was a Chinese scientist fired from there and accused of espionage last year. Edit to add. If you read more of the article it pretty much claims that every new virus in the news for the last 15 years is part of a vast conspiracy.

Phil did not say, the quote is from the article. She was a contract employee it seems. While on contract she did outside work for the Heartland institute. There is no information connecting the non renewal of her contract with her outside work. Just the word "possibly". You have no point.

Yes, and the plan is to work hard to keep it that way. This is a true statement, but it does not say anything about the future. This is also true, but what is your point? Those statements are meaningless.

How inspirational. I highly recommend that you don't try to replicate that feat with any part of you arsenal though. The only thing that will fall will be the House of Hutchinson.

Good morning Ron. Nice to hear from you. I was wondering when you would pop up with some fresh version of your ideology. No, this is not SHTF. This is a global pandemic. SHTF is a code word for a white nationalist fantasy about a race war that will divide your country and be the start of a white only homeland. This is not that. Nor is it the judgement. And God is not going to Rapture anyone, so you don't have to worry about being left behind for not being good enough at following Jesus. She didn't Rapture the Earth over the 1919 pandemic and She will not do it this time either. I know because an Angel appeared before me and told me so. Just the same, you can never be safe enough. So I strongly suggest that your clan continue to stock pile more and more ammo. But try to get it shipped to you so that you can avoid the filthy hoards up in Chattanooga. I know your first instinct is to head up there to volunteer to help out as much as you can because that is what a real Christian would do. But at your age please don't do that. Stay safe and whatever you do try to be near a keyboard and an connection to the outside world.

So then, I guess that means that the future always looks brighter when a D is in office.

They may say you're a dreamer, but you're not the only one.

Now this thing is truly global. Greenland has a case. https://www.straitstimes.com/world/europe/greenland-confirms-first-case-of-coronavirus Is Antarctica next?

Well, in England I believe the police don't usually carry firearms. Rather quaint and only possible because of gun control.

Yes, perfect. Great idea.

Fer Christ's sake. Save it for the other thread.

Party pooper.

Meanwhile, Boris Johnson is asking Rolls Royce and other automakers to switch over to producing ventilators. I kid you not. Ventilator makers and auto makers are both calling the request "unrealistic".

The pandemic will drag on for many months. The economy will adapt much sooner than that. In the end just what you said. Who knows?

I'm guessing that there will be much volatility but that the bottom reached last week will be close to the floor. This event will be disruptive, but not world shattering and hiding in gold is never a good long term strategy. Where else is there to invest in the long run that is better than the world's strongest economy? Especially with a change to competent leadership in the cards.

Oh for crying out loud kids. Even I know that the turtle's meaning was that gatherings celebrating those events would be cancelled, not the events themselves.

Easter in 4 weeks......That usually draws crowds in lots of places. Thankfully God waited till Mardi Gras was done before unleashing Her fury upon the faithful.

You are probably right, but remember the Chairman only has one vote. When the POTUS makes demands and they are almost instantly met over the weekend the world is going to take notice. The credit markets are going to be very difficult to manage as you say.

On a Sunday, the US Federal Reserve slashed interest rates to appease the Dear Leader. This foolish move will be a signal to the world that they can't trust the Fed any longer. Just watch the carnage now.

Without people to disagree with this would be a boring place. It's already down to too few regular posters, we need you and everyone else as well. I have friends in the real world who also disagree with me over things. But we just agree not to talk about them. I assume that in normal regular everyday life you are another skydiver who is awesome to be around. This is about the only place I can have discourse with people about some of these things. I've tried on FB, but it just turns into a shitshow of shouting because there are no rules. This place has just about the right level of moderation to keep things civil, yet openly talk about strong differences of opinion. Many, perhaps most of us are going to get this thing. Most of us will be fine health wise. All of us are going to have our lives changed to some degree for at least half a year. Maybe longer. I sure hope this site is well maintained so I can have someone to bitch at.

Yup, you can blame foreigners. God knows Trump and his media are. But although China was the source only your government controls your response. No other country is responsible for your actions.

Yup, I agree. Trump rallies should continue.

So, you do notice that no one was speaking of you, right? But its a little nebulous isn't it. It is not supposed to be funny, its supposed to make you see a point. I know it likely failed because you are resistant to points you don't already see.
