    Why are you talking about him instead of the topic at hand? Why do Conservatives always get so personal? I mean, that's an outstanding way to destroy your credibility.

    And BTW, it wouldn't be shock waves, but rather, more of a humorous tingle.

    Oh, that's a pretty shitty issue, right now.

    Wouldn't want to be on the butt-end of that joke.

    But in the end, it get's us all.

    I think we all understand why they did it but surely this will spread the virus?

    Calm down Coastie! It was inter service joking. I have taken my share of interservice joking in military hospitals when other Army guys patients asked me how the hell did a " fly boy" get hit by a mortar round. " Did the Cong hit your hotel?".

    I actually bumped into a Coastie ( literally) when we were driving wheelchairs in orthopedic rehab in a military hospital who was in the same orthopedic rehab group that I saw in when I got from Vietnam. He served on a boat at the mouth of the Mecong. I also have a neighbor who served as a Coastie in Vietnam not far from where I was who a few years ago has gotten symptoms of PTSD. He was the only crew member of his boat who did not get killed or severely wounded. Survivors guilt I assume.

    I also had worked with Coastie who came into our Avionics shop needing parts usually for their APN -59 airborne radar for their C-130.

    So yes the reasonable man could assume that I was slamming Coasties but ......

    Yes I am aware that you guys do perform important jobs ..

    Thank you for your service...

    The decide started with Gingrich who BTW lambasted Monika's Boyfriend for his aural peckadildos while Gingrich himself was porking his own girlfriend all while Gimgruch's wife was dying of cancer.

    No mirrors were allowed in the Gingrich home of ill repute I assume.

    The problem is that they go to the parade, contract the virus, and then i see them at the grocery store, where i have to go, and they transmit the virus.

    Events are not binary. They increase the number of carriers, which in turn increases the chances of spread. It’s someplace math

    Emperor Nero, in this instance AKA NYC Mayor De Blasio (Democrat), fiddled/ danced with his wife in Time Square while New Yorkers locked down and were told they could not, AKA Rome burned.

    The Democrats did not want closed borders and publicly stated that. They would have done a worse job handling it.

    It's wishfull thinking to think America as big as it is was not going to get the virus.

    As you say, one can contract the virus at a parade or the grocery store. I fail to see the difference. Had you been prepared you would have no need to visit the grocery store.

    WTF.......”had you prepared” ? This pandemic has been going on since March. Are you telling me you have a years worth of EVERYTHING in your house including food ?

    And YES, the more people who do dumb things like going to a “parade” increase everyone’s chance of getting he virus. It’s an exponential growth. It very basic math my friend.....VERY basic

    Yes, I have at least a years supply of most everything I need, including food. Online shopping can fulfill any items not in my stockpile.

    Yes it is basic math, but you are demanding others change their behavior so that you need not change your own behavior. That seems a bit selfish.

    Not at all. Prohibiting this unnecessary harmful behavior is anything but selfish. Quite the opposite.

    No i am not. I’m asking them to be smart. Just like I am doing for them.

    We are Americans and we are ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. Why are we listening to politicians, and not the experts in the medical field ? Stupid behaviors produce stupid consequences.

    We went into a 20 year war over the people killed on 9-11. Today, we are loosing that many people EVERY DAY, and yet people think that its not a big deal. It’s amazing to watch the political right following dear leader.

    Please keep following him tho, that way we can at least clean the gene pool a little bit.

    I think it's quite selfish to endanger others when the simple act of wearing a mask would alleviate the possibility of passing Covid.

    I think it's quite selfish for a person to have no good reason for not wearing a mask and care only for themselves and no one else.

    .
    That CRAP about "the gubmint can't tell me what to do " is so much hot air and ignorance.

    I'm reminded of a local bar owner who kept her bar open after bars were told to close. "nobody can tell her what to do!"....except doesn't she have a liquor license? THAT is the government telling her what to do.

    She's so stupid that she doesn't realize that keeping her bar open possibly spread Covid and when the numbers go up, governors put on more restrictions....people like HER CAUSED the restrictions....and I bet anything she'll accept that GOVERNMENT PPE check !!!
