    Sometimes we use shorthand instead of a long explanation.

    If masks work then your mask will protect you whether I wear a mask or not.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Seriously, there was this black guy, not wearing a mask, in front of me in the check-out line not long ago at the gas station. He was chatting up the cashier saying the Wuhan virus was hoax the President dreamed up to get re-elected. Just another kind of asinine culture war they can wage at the expense of all of us, including their selfish selfish selfish selfish selfish selfish selfish selves.

    When are people going to take this virus seriously?

    I strongly suspect the story is bull$#@!. First, NOBODY would have those for last words. Second, even in the highly unlikely event someone did attend such a party, there is absolutely nothing in the article that proves the virus was contracted at the party. There is no time frame listed, no names for corroboration, nothing...

    There is something more basic at work. Human Beings always underestimate their mortality. Too many people don't think "it will happen to them".

    Think about it. "Get on that box car" surely nothing bad can happen.. they wouldn't do that.

    "You don't need a gun to protect yourself, the police are there"

    "I will send a text I know how to do it and be careful while driving"

    "I can be a butt pirate with some dude from the $#@! club and not use a condom"

    etc. etc..

    It is not unusual

    Good, I am a firm believer that all of the safety regulations have allow a lot of stupid people to live and worse yet Breed other stupid people.

    Sometimes natural selection is a good thing.

    When are people going to take this virus seriously?
    When this broke, I believe it was stated that the host was positive for Covid, and held the party.

    Natural selection, as it were.

    There was a religious nutbag who attended a large church gathering who died the same way. Not believing Covid is 'real'. She was much younger.
