SectionC3

That's nice, and it is your choice. It's also my choice to tell you that I think you're being selfish to the extent that you come into close proximity with another person on the trail or in your neighborhood. I have some ignorant people in my neighborhood; an adult member of one household had COVID-19 and was down and out for almost two months, and this person's spouse closely associated during that time period with others in the neighborhood. None of those congregants has worn a mask, and some of those people have come too close to my kids since then. They have quickly learned of my views on the matter.

Sometimes in addition to breathing people cough. Including people with COVID-19. And discharge from a cough spreads more widely than does discharge from breathing.

Then surely you know the the report concludes with this paragraph: Because we determined not to make a traditional prosecutorial judgment, we did not draw ultimate conclusions about the President’s conduct. The evidence we obtained about the President’s actions and intent presents difficult issues that would need to be resolved if we were making a traditional prosecutorial judgment. At the same time, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state. Based on the facts and the applicable legal standards, we are unable to reach that judgment. Accordingly, while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.

It is that contagious. Hence the call to wear masks not to prevent acquisition, but to prevent transmission.

Yup. We're fighting an "invisible enemy." Our president imagines himself as a "wartime" leader. And yet his followers can't contribute to the effort with respect to those things by simply wearing a bandana over their faces. Unreal.

You obviously did not read the Mueller report.

That would be something if you could wrap the entirety of your self in plastic. Kind of like the time Brian's replacement on Family Guy killed himself, chopped himself up, and put himself in the trash. Impressive.

Hoax. Those masks do limit the spread of the wearer's discharge.

You are principled believer in the rule of law. I can tell.

And these are the people who think everyone else is dumb.

Either you believe him to have performed well or you support a mediocre president. (And mediocre probably is a compliment.). Your choice.

The thumbnail sketch of this one (from what little I understand) is that Trump is trying to extend the concept of presidential immunity to a third-party accounting firm to defeat a subpoena served not on Trump, but on that firm. We're talking about a leap from a "no indictment" rule with respect to a sitting president to a "no subpoena" rule with respect to a sitting president to a "no subpoena upon a third party that may somehow affect a sitting president" rule. Bottom line: the prez wants to be above the law, and the rule of law crowd is completely cool with him getting his way.

He's not the guy with the tiny baby hands problem. So I'm not so sure about the laughingstock thing. Maybe you should brush up on the serial comma before you put on the grammar police badge tonight. Obstruction of justice was a hoax?

Someone who thinks Donald Trump has performed well as president calling me easily impressed. Now that is something.

Let me see if I can unpack this one. To engage in the affirmative act of putting on and wearing a mask is lazy. But, if I understand correctly, you have also intimated that not wearing a mask is never lazy, and instead is always a statement of some sort. That sounds like alternative logic.

Who are those leftists? Ladies and gentlemen, Q-baby has won the Internet tonight.

Of course the flu has claimed more than COVID. COVID has been around for what, six months? An absurd point if ever there was one. I’ll translate the message: they’re inept, and their response to the virus has been a fiasco.

How is it a large thing?

I actually get their reasoning, too. I genuinely do. I just think it’s the wrong spot to take the stand. I guess it’s the way America works;. They can do something which I disagree, and I have the right to tell them how much I do not appreciate their behavior.

My oldest is four. We watch the news, and she knows who trump and pence and Fauci are. The question she asks the most is why trump refuses to wear a mask and stands so close to others. From the mouths of babes .... He and pence will war their non-infected statuses as badges.

Good for him for having his own opinion. I don’t agree with it, and I suspect he will moderate with more life experience. But it’s important to think for one’s self and to ask why things are the way they are. One of the ironies of today’s political climate is that the most disingenuous administration of my lifetime has attempted to assume, and with some succeeded in assuming, the mantle of truth.

apples and oranges, sir, for the reasons noted above. Deadlier, no vaccine, and more contagious. Ask someone who’s been on a COVID floor of a hospital about the differences. I’ll give what I please. Save your indignation.

Hoax. I’m not a fraud.

Can’t have what both ways?

yeah that’s it. All of those leftists won’t wear the mask. Maybe the fake winner president should take his wife’s advice, be better on that respect, and wear the mask when it’s appropriate. I hate to say it, but that’s how I feel, too. It’s just selfish. The wrong place to prove a point about individual liberty.
