In the case of policing issues. If civil forfeiture continues the money taken goes to schools and drug rehab not police hardware. If a person is fired from a department for cause there is a board similar to that for nurses where they are forced to register so they can’t be rehired. All civilian complaints must be considered when reviewing any current case so patterns can emerge. Co workers viewing the violence should be considered as participating in the same way driving the get away car for a killer makes you guilty. Brutality settlements should be made from police union and retirement accounts. Retaliating for reporting any abuse should be a felony with real time behind it. The limits on their immunity should be severely curtailed

Except I don’t think it’s every white guy. I think it’s every white guy that says the stuff he does

No added to it. The censoring of my profanity makes it confusing

I know you as if I had sat across a smoked filled bar drinking a bud light with you Just own it

That language literally damages people and you just don’t care !@#$ you

And mr liberal fag up There and his defender are !@#!$ people too. And if you see it and don’t say it so are you. Enjoy the sharing of peace at church

I keep looking in the background of civil rights photos at the white people screaming in the background. I keep thinking those people just went home to supper and thought they were perfectly justified. And I grew up surrounded by them

Maybe they don’t mind the taste of the boot as long as it’s on someone else’s neck. Yeah and that they are racist too. And don’t tell me they aren’t. I’m from southwestern ND. I sat around the dinner tables and in the bars. I am from there so no one guarded themselves. I am them. But I’m not anymore. That ended when I watched the full video of George Floyd being killed. And again when I’ve seen the reaction So you might convince someone else that it’s not the racism. But.not .me

I will amend to neck to be more accurate. Look at the face of the man as he lays dying as someone kneels on his neck.

I don't know....the guy who murdered him by kneeling on his throat for an extended period wasn't out of work. I'm pretty comfortable putting all the blame on that POS and his unmasked, working compatriots. Although they are unemployed now. But are they unemployed from the quarantine or with the quarantine. It's so hard to know how they count those stats. Grand Forks I can't speak too.

I’ve been watching the numbers in Cass county. Does anyone local have a sense if they contain large numbers of asymptotic people or if they are people who were tested because they were sick

Just to speak to the rip the Band Aid off now idea. I’m a clerk/secretary on an inpatient hospital floor. Our particular state has plenty of beds right now. We have staff. What procurement can’t get are bleach wipes. Our ability to get Disicide has been hit and miss. After we can’t get that we’ll move onto a third option. When that dries up I’m not sure what the plan is. It’s one thing to expect health care workers to face danger. It’s another thing for society to turn it’s back on their part of the deal. If we can’t put bleach wipes in our hospitals it might not be time to open up the gates and let it rip. Add to that list masks, face shields, meds and all the basic gear

90 positives in North Dakota today. 68 in Grand Forks county.

And it looks like it might be affordable to produce

I think we can all get on that page.

I have to say it’s not like our economic situation would be perfectly normal if we didn’t have a lock down. The mess in New York and shutting down major packing plants would have gone a long way to crashing the markets. If there were no ban would anyone here be hopping on a plane to New Orleans for Jazz Fest for now? I wouldn’t have gone to the frozen four if they hadn’t cancelled it. The shut down may be making things worse but there was going to be big financial pain. Especially as people sheltering in place has slowed transmission. We would have had more sick people faster with all that would have entailed

Vermont is now allowing alcohol delivery with ordered in food, with your take out and curbside package store pick up It is an ill wind that blows no one good

I truly wish you strength through this

I say this as someone who sits at a public facing desk in a hospital. Now is the time for our better sides. Some of our famous American coming together. My suggestions: Offer babysitting to a nurse, offer to grocery shop for your elderly neighbors, buy a gift certificate from your favorite restaurant but stay home, spare a square for your neighbor if they run out. There will be all the time in the world for arguments when we have been through this. I have my opinions about how this will all play out. But it really doesn’t matter at this point in time. We have largely cast our die. But no matter how this plays out things are going to be damn ugly and we are best served by pulling together. Left, right and center we are all still in this together.

I've been wrong before. But we should know way more by that time.

Here's the missing piece. Hospital beds and staffing are related to what has been the normal. This isn't like flu....it's on top of flu. So if your hospital is full due to regular flu....where I live is has been very full since December.....you need to find away to have supportive treatment for a group of people you are literally not ready for. They have been aggressively moving people from our ICU to regular floors for months here. Also turning away transfers from smaller hospitals and boarding people in our Emergency Department for days at times. If we need more ICU beds what we will do is an uncomfortable thought. From reading patients who require intensive care for Covid 19 require it for some time. Throw in a 14 days out of work for staff if they are exposed without PPE and you start to brew trouble. The best thing that can be expected is we have people slowly get the virus so they can be supported if they require it. This requires social distancing. I'll check back into this thread in 6 weeks and I bet the prevailing opinion is that we should have done more earlier

Thanks for stream. I took my Roku to St Croix but it wouldn’t let me use my streaming package. It does play this though

It would be like reading any comments section. You know better than to read, but you do, and then say "I knew better than to read that".

When I described Stecher I always said, "That guy is always where he shoud be , doing what he should be doing it, when he should be doing it." I will miss watching him like crazy, but he doesn't owe us anything. He left it all out on the ice. I am thrilled Boeser is coming back. Let's do this all again next year!

The original store was here. It has been torn down. There is a marker at the site. There is a scoop shop on Church St. The factory (which has a short tour) is in Waterbury. It would be a good stop for anyone venturing to Stowe.
