    It seems that's exactly what they did, and that the great number of them will not die. Regardless, it is their life and they get to make those choices if we even pretend we're a little free. Even if Trumpet doesn't like it and thinks that everybody should hide in a box until it is all over.

    2% death rate probably means 20% are miserable beyond anything they have ever experienced and survive and 80% mild to severe cold symptoms.

    These tards act like there is some binary switch Darwin installed and if you are in the 98% survival group it's like a spa.

    Again, tards, take that lick the doorknob test offered to you. Walk the talk.

    You just troll to support an impeached compromised criminal incompetent clown.
    You have no logic, reason, facts or relevant points to make about anything. Why you even breathe, let alone post, is mysterious.

    Really? So a group of kids here in town have a COVID party and infect each other, then go about their merry ways. Does body sovereignity give them the right to infect me when I encounter one at Meijer or when he hands my to-go order out the drive-through window? Does it give them the right to give it to their grandma or infant nephew or their aunt with MS?

    You might want to reconsider playing Devil's Advocate. You're standing on your pointy tail.

    Like any activity in the United States, one cannot assume guilt, it's a constitution thing, you just wouldn't understand.

    Now, if you can prove he went and got infected then showed up at your local Meijer/Krogers/King Soopers/Safeway, et al trying to infect you (or just negligently even but then lesser so) then you may have a case, "counselor". Otherwise, you are just crying because some people made a choice you wouldn't.

    I'm not "crying." I'm stating my opinion that people deliberately infecting themselves and then blithely spreading it through the community is immoral. Why you brought criminality into it only you know. Since you seem to think that this virus is no biggie, no doubt you're foregoing handwashing and social distancing. Hopefully you won't catch anything -- or even worse, give it to someone who dies.

    I talk about criminality because it is the only measure really that we can talk about politically, again, it's a constitution thing, you just wouldn't understand.

    And talking about other people choosing to try to infect themselves is not the same thing as "forgoing handwashing and social distancing"... nor is assuming that they do that and then try to infect others without their consent. I find it unlikely these people did the party then went to your supermarket to try to "get" you. You shouldn't be so afraid, all this crying... It hurts our ears.

    I think we are paying too high of a price for minimal safety, but I don't choose to protest this mess. My work is "essential" and all I need to travel is my work ID if they get all Nazi and start demanding papers, however I haven't left my house in just over 10 days now, I don't need to yet as I am working at home. I didn't even need to purchase toilet paper or eggs. I even call my mother daily to make sure she's good. I just don't assume that anybody in Kentucky is trying to get you sick (or anybody other than themselves), I know you intensely dislike everybody that disagrees minutely with whatever you want to believe at the moment and assume the worst of them, but I certainly don't need to, even to make Owlwomenfolk feel better.

    Nice -- that's the most triggered I've EVER seen you, Damo. <pats self on back>

    If you think that my concern is that I think some idiots in another state who went to a Virus Party are somehow out to get me personally, then you, sir, are stupid. My post did not even imply that; that's your own paranoia talking.

    Thanks for outing yourself as one of the reincarnations of a robber baron in the 19th century... or a stand-in for Scrooge. So a few hundred thousand deaths are okay in your book, as long as businesses stay open?

    Enjoy the hyperbole and exaggeration I just gave you in that last sentence. Don't do it to others if you don't want it done to you.

    Do these imbeciles get to spread it around to the public? Do they get to use the ventilators that might otherwise save someone who unwittingly caught the virus might need?
    BLUEXIT
    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Right. Gotcha.

    If you think that my concern is that I think some idiots in another state who went to a Virus Party are somehow out to get me personally, then you, sir, are stupid. My post did not even imply that; that's your own paranoia talking.
    So you weren't talking about yourself when you said: "Does body sovereignity (sic) give them the right to infect me (bold and italics are mine) when I encounter one at Meijer or when he hands my (bold and italics are mine) to-go order out the drive-through window?"? Methinks you protest too much, milady.

    Your concern is, as told to me by you, you believe some folks who decided to do something you don't want them to means that they are suddenly, (what did you call it?... oh yeah) "without morals" and would go infect you following rather than just stay home and recuperate then later enjoy an immunity... And your only evidence? What you want to believe about them... nothing at all more than that.

    Thanks for outing yourself as one of the reincarnations of a robber baron in the 19th century... or a stand-in for Scrooge. So a few hundred thousand deaths are okay in your book, as long as businesses stay open?

    Enjoy the hyperbole and exaggeration I just gave you in that last sentence. Don't do it to others if you don't want it done to you.
    Right. (rolls eyes)... Me staying at home is the same as a "robber baron" and means that death means nothing to me... It especially means that if I refuse to believe the nefarious motivation you assign to others based on nothing other than your hopeful projection of their existence "without morality".
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
