    Possibly.  Any chance the decline is in part due to people getting sick with what traditionally would have been classified as flu now being classified as "presumed" Covid 19?

    Are all teachers young healthy people with limited meaningless risk? 

    Newsflash, picking an occupation where you will be surrounded by 20-30 booger picking kids all day might not be the best field if you have a compromised immune system.  This is nothing new.  What is new is that many of those teachers got a taste of working from home.

    and F*CK you again judgy aholeQ

    Dodging the question again.  Textbook labeling someone a racist with zero to back it up.  We will accept your non answer as an admission that you were wrong.  Moving on.

    No.  It's just selfish.  Very narcissistic.

    Maybe the hermit life for you would do us all good.

    Heck. If you're in North Dakota, you're almost there.  

    Lol. 

    You are the one obsessed with a message board full of mostly "hermit" North Dakotans......who's the idiot?

    What percentage of covid deaths are 80 plus in mn? 

    We are talking nursing homes so inevitably some of those are over 80.  Don't change the subject though, if masks work why have nursing homes been hit so hard with the high level of mask compliance they have there? (And those are real masks....not cut off tshirt sleeves).

    Since 77% of MN Covid deaths have been in long term care facilities, you've deemed masks ineffective?

     

    It's the one place where mask wearing has been 100% compliant, or at least closest to it.  

    Shouldn't have been any deaths or at least a very low number of masks work.

    What assisted living facilities have shown masks to be ineffective?

    Approximately 77% of MN Covid deaths have been in nursing/long term care homes.  Places where even for "milder" outbreaks like flu outbreaks masks are worn by staff and visitors are restricted.  https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.twincities.com/2020/07/21/mn-gov-walz-battle-plan-coronavirus-deaths-in-long-term-care/amp/

    Ineffective?

    If you replaced mask with vaccine would you feel the same way?

    Keeping in mind that if they change their mind again on wearing a mask you can simply just take yours off.....but with a hastily thrown together vaccine you can't just take it back out of your body.

    Thanks for quoting a known white supremicist with a gay porn star name on Twitter in defense of....WAIT!

    I"m going to roll a shiny quarter down the hall and distract all you red neck a-holes to a cause that could actually HELP some people instead of fueling an ever-burning dumpster fire of politics....click it

    https://www.gofundme.com/f/dewwdu-caring-for-a-caregiver?utm_source=customer&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link-tip

    a worthy cause instead of a futile arguement for a change - have at it and SPREAD it on your socials.    Regardless of politics we need to knock this one out of the park for Al and Johanna

     

    White supremacists?  Because he doesn't agree with you or do you have actual facts/statements to back that up?  

    And while there are idiots on both sides when it comes to the debate....the ironic thing is if there was actually a dumpster (or anything else) on fire there really wouldn't be a mystery which side set it a blaze.

    You are for the rule of law but you don't want to read the legislation that makes the rules?  I posted the HR1 link.

    Oh, no.  The feelings of the poor Border Control were hurt during Obama's presidency :(  I'm sure you have the same concerns for the scientists that have been sidelined by the current administration.

    If we want to keep from falling too far behind China and eventually India, we need to dramatically increase legal immigration.  At least 1% of the total population per year, which is about triple of the rates now.

    I think most everyone on here would be all for legal immigration of 1% per year......assuming of course that buckling down hard on illegal immigration goes right along with that.  

    1% might be a tad high but most don't have an issue with immigration done the right way.

    What you are really saying is that you prefer to make choices that may endanger others.  Not unlike driving drunk.  

    Maybe you think you could down a few Jack and Cokes in short order and drive down the road and you won't hurt anyone.  That could be true.

    Maybe you can wander around in public without a mask and not hurt anyone.  That could also be true.

     

    But... It really is selfish to believe that doing either won't be harmful to others.  Because, neither could be true. 

    Medical professionals know that...

    Ahhh the old drinking and driving example.....another weak comparison on your part (which we are all getting used to).  If I don't drink and drive....that guarantees that I won't hit you with my car while I'm drunk........100% guaranteed........On the flip side, fora required non-medical grade fabric face mask to be effective you would 1) Need to depend on someone wearing it correctly (including people that can't get out of bed in the morning without someone telling them how to do it)  2) Need some measure of thickness to the fabric (guess what....those cool under armour ones you could spit a lougie through if you wanted to they Are so breathable 3) Need guarantees that Covid isn't spread via aerosol (still very much up in the air) 3) Hope that you don't touch the same knob, handle, rail, etc that said person that put their mask on wrong touched just before you did.....etc.  

    All in the name of buckling the economy for a virus that 99.9% of the population will never suffer any I'll effects of.

    "Their"???,

    Who in hell are you talking about?

    Just like the orange dip$#@ you are lumping people into some weird "antifa" made up group.  

    That's lunacy. That is what a cult does. 

    There is no organized "antifa".  It only exists in the pointy little heads of Trumptards. 

    In the meantime, an organized secret police under Barr and Trump have been taking protesters off the street.  Probably violating laws by doing so. Now, THAT is facism.  

    You think Antifa just started during the Trump administration?  Lol.

    A quick search uncovers a number of posters in this thread using the word "libtard" over the years and unchallenged. Hmm.

    This thread hasn't been around for years.....only seems like it.  Name-calling is a good way to instantly discredit any point you may have....both sides.  In my opinion one side is more prone to defaulting to the practice than the other, but that's probably besides the point.  When I see someone use the word "libtard" I just roll my eyes because it just reinforces the stereotype of the right and /or Trump supporters that the media so desperately wants you to believe applies to everyone in those categories.

    Funny how I'm singled out for this use of Trumptard. 

    Hmmm.. 

    I guess "libtard" is just fine with you.  Never saw a complaint about that. 

    Selective in your outrage, aren't you?  Well, that is the Trumptard way. 

    Lol. 

     

    Actually most people have an issue with using the word "retard" or any abbreviated form of it (and have for the last 30+ years).  That goes for many people on the right and left.  It is just as offensive to someone that is developmentally challenged (and their parents) as a racial slur is.  Try to show a little more maturity in your conversation.

    Hey look, Oxbow crapped on another thread with politics.

    Talking out of your rear again.....because it's almost all political at this point.  Don't be a hypocrite and try to make it sound otherwise.  At least Oxbow helps put the Covid, and in this case the double standards that exist when it comes to media reporting crime, into perspective for people like yourself that aren't equipped to do so.

    This is the problem.   ANYTIME a cop presses his body weighted knee into someone's neck while he's screaming out "I can't breathe" for 8 MINUTES it's wrong.  PERIOD!   This wasn't a situation where a guy was shooting people in the street and had to be detained by any means - that's fine.    Find some weirdo white guy who shoots up a school and kills people.   PRESS YOUR KNEE ON HIS NECK ALL DAY!   I don't care.   Floyd was ACCUSED of passing a fake $20 bill...not even verified if it actually was fake and Chauvin did that to him.   Do think he would have done that to stupid white kid accused of the same?   Hell NO!   He's a f*cking racist.

    There's no evidence the kids that shot DiLorenzo did so because he was white - that's the difference.  And that's not to excuse them because street criminals who murder should go to jail for a long time too.  I'm just saying a lot of people who are "pretending" to share condolences here where calling for DiLorenzo's head before he resigned.   You know who you are...

    Typical emotional response dodging the question when things get inconvenient.  Deep down, if you are assuming that Chauvin 100% only did what he did because Floyd is black......do you honestly believe that Dilorenzo and his wife being old and white played no role in 2 black teenagers picking them as marks?
