CIA Admits Involvement in Chile W A S H I N G T O N, Sept. 20, 2000 -- The CIA is acknowledging for the first time the extent of its deep involvement in Chile, where it dealt with coup-plotters, false propagandists and assassins. https://abcnews.go.com/International/story?id=82588&page=1

https://www.revealnews.org/article/inside-hate-groups-on-facebook-police-officers-trade-racist-memes-conspiracy-theories-and-islamophobia/ Hundreds of active-duty and retired law enforcement officers from across the United States are members of Confederate, anti-Islam, misogynistic or anti-government militia groups on Facebook, a Reveal investigation has found. These cops have worked at every level of American law enforcement, from tiny, rural sheriff’s departments to the largest agencies in the country, such as the Los Angeles and New York police departments. They work in jails and schools and airports, on boats and trains and in patrol cars. And, Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting discovered, they also read and contribute to groups such as “White Lives Matter” and “DEATH TO ISLAM UNDERCOVER.” The groups cover a range of extremist ideologies. Some present themselves publicly as being dedicated to benign historical discussion of the Confederacy, but are replete with racism inside. Some trade in anti-Semitic and anti-immigrant memes. Some are openly Islamophobic. And almost 150 of the officers we found are involved with violent anti-government groups such as the Oath Keepers and Three Percenters.

This is getting lost in the sauce of other threads. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/george-floyd-protests-police-body-camera-san-jose-california-b434427.html Body camera footage from George Floyd protests in San Jose, California, show a police officer reveling in the chance to use force against protesters. During one of the body camera videos, a police officer can be heard shouting "Hell yeah! Let's get some!" and "Let's get these motherf******" before attempting to apprehend protesters. The footage also showed an incident in which a police officer who hit a fleeing individual with his motorcycle and another showed police beating a man with a foam baton after he was pulled over the police skirmish line. The San Jose Police Department released the footage on Friday after months of heavy criticism from community members about police conduct during the protests. Police Chief Eddy Garcia said he hoped releasing the footage would "provide the public more clarity into each of these incidents." "Each video is only one piece of information used to fully understand a complex event," Mr Garcia said. "Some opinions and conclusions may be affected after watching certain videos; others will not."

Concerned community members have called for Mr Yuen to resign over his commentary and general attitude toward dealing with protesters. The police department claims it has launched a probe into Mr Yuen's conduct which is still underway. At another point in the video, an officer calls a woman demonstrator a "b****." "Everyone's upset. Everyone's angry. Why are you on that side? Why are you not standing with us right now? Why do you have a baton in your hand?" she asked. "Shut up, b****," the officer responded. An unidentified protester then yells "f*** you n*****," to the officer. In another clip, police officers chase a man through the streets after he allegedly attempts to enter a closed bank. During the chase, an officer fires a non-lethal projectile at the fleeing individual and hits him in the lower part of his body. The man then darts into the street and runs parallel to the sidewalk until a police officer on a motorcycle plows into him, knocking him to the ground. A third clip shows a protester being wrestled to the ground by police after they declared the gathering an unlawful assembly. Police claim the protesters were throwing objects like rocks and bottles at them. They further claimed that the man who was wrestled to the ground attempted to grab one of their batons and tried to punch them.

That's certainly great info. Thanks.

You said that false positives were statistically insignificant which I supplied a ton of data to counter and you continue to just say it without any evidence at all. I never said 99%, I said at 99% it would still be awful and the china test had somewhere between 93% and 60% depending. You were the one that made claim to it and then edited your post. Perhaps it was missing context, which is fine. Simply put: The data suggests there is reason to believe tests are inaccurate to a very statistically significant level, meaning that just because you tested negative does not mean you don't have it and just because you tested positive and now tested negative does not mean that you had it. Additionally, previously having COVID does not mean you are immune. There is very likely a statistically significant portion of the population that think they are immune because they had a false positive COVID test and later had a false one. There is likewise very likely a statistically significant portion of the population that has had a false negative and has infected others. I'm not saying this to change behavior, it's just the facts based on the data that exists. Do with it what you will.

Not necessarily, no. I just see you saying dangerously incorrect things about a virus and felt the need to interject. What I believe is immaterial to your statements. Where are you getting 99% testing accuracy? The article I linked published by the New England journal of medicine showed a 7% - 40% false positive rate for the tests out of Wuhan. And it seems the accuracy of the US tests is unknown. John Oliver did an expose on the antigen tests and how there's little to no oversight on that process.

What are you basing this on? You keep repeating it but won't back it up with data. For reference, my company provides B2B software platforms as solutions for our clients. Anything over 99.9999 % uptime is in breach of our contracts which amounts to 56 minutes per year. By contrast, if the COVID test has a 99% accuracy rating, across the global population it amounts to 76,000,000 with false negatives or 2 1/2 times the total amount of people that have reportedly had the virus. From the data reported, 99% seems optimistic. "Two studies from Wuhan, China, arouse concern about false negative RT-PCR tests in patients with apparent Covid-19 illness. In a preprint, Yang et al. described 213 patients hospitalized with Covid-19, of whom 37 were critically ill.2 They collected 205 throat swabs, 490 nasal swabs, and 142 sputum samples (median, 3 per patient) and used an RT-PCR test approved by the Chinese regulator. In days 1 through 7 after onset of illness, 11% of sputum, 27% of nasal, and 40% of throat samples were deemed falsely negative" "Assessment of clinical sensitivity in asymptomatic people had not been reported for any commercial test as of June 1, 2020." https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2015897#:~:text=In days 1 through 7,at least one respiratory specimen.

That does not appear to be true. Where are you getting that information? That is also not true on either point. A person with a false negative can spread it, and there have already been cases of people getting it more than once. Likely different strains and perhaps not common enough to worry about, but the concern is about people spreading disease. https://abc7chicago.com/health/nevada-man-becomes-first-in-the-us-to-catch-covid-19-twice/6393798/

Testing has false negatives. Science doesn't care about common sense.

Pay him how much? He can't stay on the field. He was hurt week 17 in 2017 and missed the playoff game.

Bass has plenty of excuses. Rookie kicker in his first game coming off a competition in a tough stadium to kick in. That said, I'd rather have a veteran.

And Singletary - he puts that ball in front of him and it's an easy TD.

He gets a B+ from me. When he looked great in the first half, he looked as good as anybody. He left too much on the board and you just can't have that kind of turnover. Every QB turns the ball over, but those kind of fumbles are becoming a huge problem for him. Two wide open TDs that you just can't leave out there either. Against a better team, that could have bitten us in the ass.

It's a big achievement. Hopefully we don't go another 49 games without one.

There's no problem with Allen running except he can't hold on to the ***** ball. He's a running qb. Fixing that needs to be a top priority for mcdermott and Allen

Good day to be a Bills fan

Brown has to catch that ball

Got damn. Great play from Josh.

He wasn't at all obscure if you even mildly follow politics. I've known about him and have heard him speak on various political talk shows for 20 years.

He isn't overrated nationally - just here and among Bills fans in general. That's the context of most of the thread. He's talked about in the top 20 nationally, but sometimes bills fans act like he's the next Kuechly, Willis, Urlacher, etc.
