  1. The death rate is not a big thing apparently but young people with a sore throat is, I am confused by this logic.
  2. I stated in the beginning- but I will repeat for those of whom reading comprehension is elusive- black neighborhoods are mainly ones being burned, blacks are mainly ones being murdered in NYC and Chicago. If having your home burned down and your neighbors killed is winning what is losing?
  3. Yesterday someone emailed me from here to apologize since their tone came off bashing teachers in general, but when our union does the crap it does while "representing" me it is hard not to bash teachers. I am am thankfully not forced to pay for my union and I have not and will not since it is more political than helpful.
  4. Trump has never been a true conservative but he is much more conservative than an Dem. Fiscally he is conservative compared to Biden, and State rights he is better than either Clinton or Obama. As for the government interference you are simply showing how proudly ignorant you are, that is one of the accusations against him from the left that is allowing too much to happen without govt oversight. I don't love Trump but he is far better than the leftist alternative.
  5. Actually this kind of quote is pertinent today because so many people are proud of their ignorance and remain that way to help their arguments. My ten year old has a bed time of 9 pm during the summer. She for a few days early on get in bed at 830 and read, so we would say our goodnights. The problem was she would not go to bed at 9, and would simply not look at her clock. She said twice I didn't know what time it was and she should not be punished due to that. Liberals are using a similar thought process, they don't want the info that disagrees with them but want to not face the consequences of their beliefs
  6. So what caused the 1st 45 days of violence before the Feds showed up? And why do you care about the racial makeup of the community? It seems you think White people should be treated differently despite the violence.
  7. as a teacher these tools make my job so much harder in convincing parents my main goal is to help their kids, not get paid. If a parent believes I want to help their kids they help me but if they think I am there for the money they fight me.
  8. After much too much thought about this trade I think the Jets did extremely well. They traded a player who was going to cause problems in the locker room most likely and got a strong haul in return. I also think the Jets GM might be ok with this being a lost year and this makes them better in a few years.
  9. I can clearly see that reading comprehension is not your strong point so let me write the whole thing again- if we shut down the country completely again to save people from Covid then we will spike domestic abuse and suicides to a higher level than the Covid deaths during the shut down. The fact you actually believe that a Twitter post will make it more true tells me a lot about you.
  10. Put him on ignore- he is the only person on my list. He has no intention of being reasonable or intelligent.
  11. With Tibs it is definitely a little of column A and a little of column B situation. He is not bright and he will lie a little to make him "right".
  12. How would you describe the efforts of BLM right now? In a few words or a phrase?
  13. Brilliant, now all we have to do is get rid of the pesky Constitution.
  14. Perhaps do any research on the relationship between unemployment and domestic abuse and suicides. Even if it is not "common knowledge" it is not political to acknowledge that fact. It amazes me you think understanding correlations is right wing.
  15. The entire basis of being a liberal currently is entirely emotional without having any basis in logic. Most of the issues liberals deal in can not be empirically examined without being accused of racism or some other bigotry. The answer is known by liberals and they eliminate facts that disagree. One example is a liberal is arguing with me that cases of Covid is a bigger deal than deaths. Anyone who understands science and math knows deaths is the most important measuring stick, unless you decision is made before applying any thought
  16. You do understand that at some point the majority of our country will likely get Covid and our goal needs to be to minimize deaths and major hospitalizations, right? Even if the vaccine is fast tracked and is available in two years time most people will have caught it by then unless you keep things locked down till a vaccine which is a good way to ensure domestic abuse and suicides increases far outpace the Covid deaths.
  17. I tried to make sure I was not bashing him because I have seen someone close to me do the same. It is not easy in the short term, in fact it might be horrible in the short term, but this pattern is dangerous. I truly hope it gets worked out in a healthy way for him.
  18. Too many people will stay with someone because "it is best for the kids" and truly mean it. One side is good until they have the kid and then let the crazy loose. I will tell you teaching these kids I can often tell the children of these parents because kids emulate their parents and I assure you that in the long run it is better to end it quickly then let it drag on for years. But I wish the best to Fluker and his family and hopefully somehow this comes out well.
  19. I really like Milano and know our defense is better with him on field but I think he has to be odd man out on money. We can't pay everybody 12 million a year and they need to look to pay Josh 30 at least. I also think his best attribute is flat speed and we can replace that easier than the other physical gifts of Tre and Edmunds.
  20. I definitely do not bash drafting him but wish contract had a lot more escalators in it. I though will admit I was shocked how lazy he got so quickly
  21. https://www.yahoo.com/news/research-puts-good-guy-gun-140100122.html This article is awesome in its limited scope to make a point. It's entire point is that in mass shootings - which is 4 or more people at once- that a good guy with a gun has almost never saved the day. They state there were 418 mass shootings last year of which I would bet 400 are gang related. When you have limit your argument is such a manner and then try to make overarching deductions it shows how little ground you have to stand on.
  22. I will wait for a source other than the family to confirm no underlying issues. I saw a story on CNN last week where they stated the people had only asthma as an underlying health issue but when I found pics of the two they were morbidly obese. I just don't trust CNN or anyone who runs a story simply off a family says. I feel bad for the family but their story on background is suspect since the mom is a teacher who wants to stay home.
  23. The virus has killed 0 kids who did not have serious health issues prior to getting Covid. That is why doctors are saying it is safe for kids to go back, 80+% of kids are more likely to be hospitalized by the flu this year than Covid.
  24. I appreciate your expertise but I am gonna go with the CDC, the pediatricians, and the vast majority of groups who deals with epidemiology.
