    It's interesting to see you actually admit COVID has killed people. That's progress. LOL

    He also admitted that he basically has no clue how this virus kills. "Cytokine storm" does sound impressive though to ppl incapable of learning.

    Of course, Trump was right and it just went away. I guess they forgot to inform Ben Carson. He is in the hospital with Corona. There are 8 FBI agents quarantined from fronting tonight's speech, and Donnie Jr, s girlfriend Guilifoyle has come down with Corona.

    I think human and animal bodies are fascinating. All kinds of communication going on inside, signals being sent and received,
    recognizing and blocking some foreign invaders while receiving others, sometimes mixed messages, things go wrong, etc.
    Still, the entire coordination of events inside is just overwhelmingly wondrous and miraculous.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    LOL. True in numbers, but not in percentages......and it's an easy guess where you'd fall on that scale "Doktor Darth". It would verify or dispute present assessments.

    Like the anti-gun assholes who keep using "total death numbers " (not to mention including suicides) it's the rate of an event that is most telling, not the total numbers. Obviously the US, with 328M citizens, is going to have more total suicides than Canada, 38M citizens. As most science-oriented people know, it's the rate that is more important:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...y_suicide_rate
    Suicide Rate
    US 13.7
    Canada 10.4


    Understanding those figures is a much more logical starting point than total numbers between countries where one is ten times the size of the other. Therefore, claiming that the reason the US ratio of those sick has gone up or down because of more testing is blindly stupid. It's Trumpian logic....meaning no logic at all, no basis in science at all.

    This lesson in statistics is free.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.
