Careful, the left considers a brain to be a dangerous weapon, and they demand you surrender control of it at once!

CDC says it's not that deadly, so I will let you do all the worrying, and I will go about living my life in reality land with the rest of the grown ups.

The virus is not santa. You don't get a present for believing it's more deadly than it really is.

True, the rioters look like a pretty representative sample of the Democratic base.

100,000 Americans died of the Hong Kong Flu pandemic in 1968. 118,000 Americans died of the Asian flu pandemic of 1957-1958, when we had 60% of the population as we do today. That would be like losing 165,000 Americans today. Quite literally, no one cared. Do you? To live is to die. Sorry to inform you of this basic fact of life.

And I'm pretty sure they weren't throwing sick flu patients in nursing homes with the most vulnerable members of society. It's not the viruses fault the stupid democrat governors throw COVID-19 patients in with the most vulnerable members of society, causing possibly 10s of thousands of unnecessary deaths. I'm pretty sure they weren't counting gun shot deaths as flu deaths back than either.

I agree wholeheartedly. We should be better than all of this. Watching our country disintegrate is horrifying. This mass race incident could morph into a general socialist insurrection given the economic depression gripping the country. I am worried for all our futures at this point. Are we watching the fall of the USA play out right in front of our faces? This looks to be just the beginning. Too many shocking events have happened to our nation in a short period of time.

It feels if our country is about to repeat both 1932 and 1861 simultaneously. If we can no longer function as a unified country let’s break it up peacefully folks. Well never recover if violence rules the day.

Heh..

There are many (funded) interest groups out there, ready to pounce.
The political leaning media is also fueling this situation as well. It’s a
finely tuned orchestra of idiocy.

The question becomes; who are the puppet masters? So face it, the liberals and
their current allies of convenience; the corporate class are fighting like hell to get Trump out. So just ask; what do they want so damn badly.

It’s not social justice for blacks, trust me. Central Park Karen can attest to that. No, what they want is Globalism and Immigrant labor. Fortunately, their chances of success is dwindling, so their grasping for anything as CNN headquarters is burning.

The CDC is the same organization that said masks were not necessary. They also grossly overestimated the mortality rate from the very start. If you would like to share with the class what the current estimated mortality rate is of COVID-19, many would like to know. It is much, much lower than their original estimates.

They are protesting because of a video of what appears to be a cop killing a black man. How is that a conspiracy theory???
