  1. Thats because America isn't armed enough. As Brent never hesitates to mention its in the middle of a gun buying frenzy right now. The NRA believes once 80% of the population has carry permits with suitable firepower, it will achieve herd immunity.
  2. "The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office took the rare step of releasing a full autopsy report into the death of George Floyd. The examiner, Dr. Andrew Baker After initially suggesting an underlying heart condition and potential intoxication combined with being held down by three police officers was behind his death, the medical examiner released a final ruling this week of "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdural, restraint, and neck compression." This basically means he went into cardiac arrest brought on by his restraint from the three officers – one of whom, Derek Chauvin, had his knee against Floyd's neck for almost 9 minutes."
  3. My interest was piqued when Germany made its announcement Thursday about the mix and match concept. Germany has the most robust medical research programs in Europe.Since both Moderna and Pfizer target the covid spikes. I can see the overall thinking behind those two being interchanged. Obviously the body doesn't know. The UK "Comparing COVID-19 Vaccine Schedule Combinations – Com-COV" is just starting. For certain there will be new variants by the time populous poorer countries are fully vaccinated. I received a vaccination yesterday am. Presumably Pfizer but I have my doubts. A tiny pinprick when the needle entered, then nothing. I'm thinking its a placebo, likely saline for some unknown further "deep state" study. I'm hoping for a headache, muscle aches, something! Or it could be like I told the nurse when she asked me If I had covid before. "I've never been tested. If i was asymptomatic how would I know?
  4. "Germany's vaccine commission, known as STIKO, recommended on Thursday that people under 60-years old who have had a first shot of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine should receive a different product for their second dose.... In an updated recommendation on its website, STIKO said there was no scientific evidence on the safety of a mixed series of vaccines. "Until the appropriate data is available, STIKO recommends for people under 60 years old that instead of the second AstraZeneca dose, a dose of an mRNA-vaccine should be given 12 weeks after the first vaccine," STIKO said." “Think of vaccination as presenting our immune system with a red flag—here is something you should be on the lookout for,” he says. “And so if you go with the mRNA vaccine first, you’re going to activate one branch of our immune system.” (We have three different branches.) Bernstein suggests thinking of this first vaccine as our “air force.” Then, he says, you introduce one of the viral vector vaccines, such as the ones by AstraZeneca/Oxford or Johnson & Johnson/Janssen a couple of weeks later, and, it tells the immune system: “ ‘You saw this guy before, but I’m going to present him in a different format,’ ” says Bernstein. “And so it’s going to activate a different branch of our immune system, think of it as our navy. And so now you have the air force and the navy activated and so you’ve got a double threat against this incoming virus.”
  5. Non restricted, i.e. the same as any other rifle in Canada. You need a license to buy, but no registration. Uses Ar-15 magazines. Its why the licensing of individuals to buy and own guns can be more effective than banning.
  6. No he's gone to school at FOX-u
  7. Who'd a thunk it. A bunch of GOP, bible thumping, gun loving prostitute share politicians. Here is one of Gaetz's latest quotes Matt Gaetz mocked “kale and quinoa” eaters who look down upon those that eat “fried foods” in “real America.” “It’s a worldview where you eat nothing but kale and quinoa, where those of us who cling to our Bibles and our guns and our fried foods and real America are looked down upon,” So the investigation now indicates Greenberg, Gaetz and another GOP politician all passed one prostitute onto each other. "Matt Gaetz and an indicted Florida politician is focusing on their involvement with multiple women who were recruited online for sex and received cash payments,...Mr. Greenberg introduced the women to Mr. Gaetz, who also had sex with them, ... One of the women who had sex with both men also agreed to have sex with an unidentified associate of theirs in Florida Republican politics," Then there is Gaetz's use of Molly, the Love Drug, X, etc. most commonly known as Ecstasy or MDMA. "Some of the men and women took ecstasy, an illegal mood-altering drug, before having sex, including Mr. Gaetz, two people familiar with the encounters said." Sorry Mr. Gaetz, most Americans don't pass their favorite prostitutes around to each other. Now most Americans aren't carrying the bible under an arm. Oh! and healthy eating is also the new America.

    covid-19

    We need to put AMD and Intel on the job. Get rid of all the bio-science people who just sit around drinking cappuccinos and talking liberal smack.
  9. This wave contains a rising percentage of the deadlier and more transmissible variants. There is discussion within the medical community to label them collectively the GOP variants. As they target the mask-less, jab-adverse segments of the population. Those who still believe its all a big hoax.
  10. In Canada that will work for sure. Natives have recently opened their own vaccination centers. Open to all. I'm sure i can print off a
  11. If the background checks associated with fully automatic weapons were enacted in the US. Mass shootings would be almost all eliminated. AFAIK there has never been a mass shooting associated with the registered owner of a ATF full auto license.
  12. You're either trolling or have your head buried into FOX. 1. Please supply some evidence that President Obama separated children from their parents at the border. 2.You stated previously that President Biden is presently separating children from their parents at the border. Please supply evidence of that. 3. Since US immigration law permits non US citizens to make an immigration application at the border. What "lawlessness " are you referring to? What does your linked story have to do what so ever with undocumented immigrants? It states "While human trafficking has not been widely reported on the Metro system,". Furthermore makes no reference to non-US citizens, green card holders, nor anyone that you reference in your personal statements.

    Cuomo

    Perhaps the thread should be re-titled to anti-hero "As the coronavirus subsided in New York last year, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo had begun pitching a book proposal that would center on his image as a hero of the pandemic. But by early last summer, both his book and image had hit a critical juncture. Mr. Cuomo leaned on his top aide, Melissa DeRosa, for assistance. She attended video meetings with publishers, and helped him edit early drafts of the book. But there was also another, more pressing edit underway at the same time. An impending Health Department report threatened to disclose a far higher number of nursing home deaths related to the coronavirus than the Cuomo administration had previously made public. Ms. DeRosa and other top aides expressed concern about the higher death toll, and, after their intervention, the number — which had appeared in the second sentence of the report — was removed from the final version. The revisions occurred as the governor was on the brink of a huge payoff: a book deal that ended with a high offer of more than $4 million"
  14. Former trump AG Bill Barr authorized the FBI to continue this investigation several times. According to a NYT reporters interview. So it evidently has legs. Tucker Carlson furious at Matt Gaetz for including him in sex scandal defense: report "While appearing on Carlson's Fox News program on Tuesday, Gaetz defended himself against allegations of sex trafficking by mentioning sexual misconduct allegations that were made against the Fox News host. Gaetz noted that he was "not the only person on screen right now who's been falsely accused of a terrible sex act."
  15. Especially among those with bone spurs.
  16. Nope, the AR is more lethal. Like this one? You have the idea that young white men who have grudges against society, women, classmates. Can all go to "get a high capacity from the bad-guys.com" site. That everything is readily accessible if banned. As if the bad guys operated a nearby Walmart.

    That and I wonder if he knows about the secret carburetor that the oil industry bought to keep out of the hands of motorists.
  18. I give respect to individuals and organizations that deserve it.. Setting aside the whole respect angle. The use of tax free institutions, like religions who then use their organizations for political purposes. Is particularly galling. The corruption of religions for personal financial gain. Even more egregious. I used to be naive about other religions as well."There is a history of persecution of Muslims in Myanmar The UN states that the Rohingyas are one of the most persecuted groups in the world...Myanmar security forces have driven the Rohingyas off their land, burned down their mosques and committed widespread looting, arson and rape of Rohingya Muslims...In 2001, anti-Muslim pamphlets, most notably The Fear of Losing One's Race, were widely distributed by Buddhist monks." Buddhists which are 80 percent of the population have spearheaded this genocide. Having said that there are christians working in third world countries that do great work. Some of the most effective charities are faith based.
  19. In BIGUN's defense he attempts to use respectful argument to support his position.Ron does as well but his use of scripture just will not cut it. Where he fails is to separate himself and his argument from the dismal failures of the christian religion. i.e. trump, i.e christian evangelicals in the US, televangelists. Why is it that not one televangelist uses the funding that their "ministries" generate , I would call them profit centers, or scam centers. To promote christian values and projects. Here is one: 1. Kenneth Copeland Net Worth $760 Million "Kenneth Copeland is very close to being a Billionaire even though he already claims billion dollar status. He runs Kenneth Copeland Ministries. His ministry’s 1,500-acre campus is a half-hour drive from Fort Worth includes a church, a private airstrip, a hangar for the ministry’s $17.5 million jet and other aircraft, and a $6 million church owned lakefront mansion." Isn't that christian of him? Like trump he exaggerates his net worth to flatter his ego.
  20. Former President Donald J. trump “inflamed, encouraged, incited, directed, and aided and abetted” the Capitol Riot on Jan. 6, the officers’ Is the statement of claim made by two defenders of the US capitol, ie. police officers injured by trump's actions. Its just too bad trump will use his personal PAC money to buy himself off.
  21. LCM= large Capacity Magazine "Between 1990 and 2017, there were 69 high-fatality mass shootings. Attacks involving LCMs resulted in a 62% higher mean average death toll. The incidence of high-fatality mass shootings in non–LCM ban states was more than double the rate in LCM ban states; the annual number of deaths was more than 3 times higher. In multivariate analyses, states without an LCM ban experienced significantly more high-fatality mass shootings and a higher death rate from such incidents. Conclusions. LCM bans appear to reduce both the incidence of, and number of people killed in, high-fatality mass shootings. The recent spate of gun massacres in the United States has re-energized the debate over how to prevent such tragedies.1 A common response to high-profile acts of gun violence is the promotion of tighter gun legislation, and there is some evidence that laws imposing tighter restrictions on access to firearms have been associated with lower levels of mass shootings.2 One proposal that has received renewed interest involves restricting the possession of large-capacity magazines (LCMs).3–5 This raises an important question: what has been the impact of LCM bans on high-fatality mass shootings?" There have actually been a couple studies similar to this. Sometimes the shooter pauses to reflect on what they are doing after one magazine is empty. Sometimes they fumble and have issues changing magazines due to the stress of the situation. Other instances have shown that the shooter couldn't recall how to chamber an new round from a fresh magazine. These are generally not skilled shooters.

    Once a whore, always a whore.
  23. "The Capitol Police announced Sicknick’s death in a Jan. 7 press release, writing that the officer died at roughly 9:30 p.m. "due to injuries sustained while on-duty." Sicknick, 42, was injured Jan. 6 "while physically engaging with protesters," the press release said. He collapsed after he returned to his division office and was taken to a local hospital, where he died.... That lines up with what Ken Sicknick, the officer’s brother, told ProPublica for a Jan. 8 report. Ken Sicknick said his brother texted him the night of the riot that he was in "good shape" but had been pepper sprayed twice. But on Jan. 7, Ken Sicknick and the rest of the family were informed that Brian Sicknick had experienced a blood clot and a stroke, the report said." I understand that thats very limited information. Whole story of what little is known.
  24. Fair enough. IMO both medical reports didn't say the levels of ingested drugs at the time or shortly before the altercation was the cause of death. W/O derailing the thread what are your thoughts on the proximity between being maced January 6, and heart attack of January 7th. re the Capitol police officer death. So far the medical examiner still hasn't released that report. That close proximity is certainly suspicious. Obviously there were all of the other surrounding events of that day.
