“If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”
— Golda Meir
Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.

And, as always, you may quote me on that if you like!

Stretch, like all of us, has free will. She's free to end her miserable existence and go see Jesus any time she wants. It sounds like she's eager.
You have to wonder at the mental illness in someone who judges and then blames others for having "poor immune systems." Guess her god created some super humans (Ubermenschen) like herself, and the rest of us are physically flawed, defective creations.

Rio De Janeiro are being "clobbered" by winter weather, with the highs in the 80's and lows in the 60's. Meanwhile Houston, and Miami are seeing highs in the 90's and lows in the 70s. Obviously this extremely cold weather is causing the disease(sarcasm).
Meanwhile New Zealand is in the 50's and 40's and they are disease free.

I'm looking forward to the day Trump is not in the public consciousness, like Andrew McCarthy or Kelly McGillis.
A bad dream. Whew, thank God that wasn't real.

It's been like that more thousands of years. This is not a perfect world. it is a fallen world. I'm not the one whining. I accept what comes my way. Do what I can
earthly do about things and go one living. I'm not whining or complaining about anything. Pandemics have been around forever.
All we can do is what we can do and then keep living.
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.
I'm 100% living my life. Wearing a mask & distancing don't effect what I'm doing or my enjoyment of life whatsoever.
But those very basic precautions may save a life or 2 - so I'll continue to do those things until we find a vaccine or something along those lines.
It isn't binary.

Look, I get it. I made 3 DIY masks for myself to use inside stores and businesses. I get it already.
But, I won't pick fights 24/7 with others to absolutely refuse to wear them at all for whatever reason. It's their right.
Plus, we SHOULD be skeptical of whatever comes out of the mouths of the WHO and CDC. They have been
sometimes vague, spoken out of both sides of their mouths, changed and rearranged the "rules" from the
beginning and continue to do so. I don't trust them at all. The WHO is owned by China and have none of my respect
or confidence.

Fair post. If it was JUST the WHO saying it, I'd probably be skeptical too.
It's hit a sort of critical mass, though. I don't think it's a cure-all by any means - but I think if we all wear masks, wash hands & distance, it can make a significant difference.
I don't challenge people in public if they're not wearing a mask, but I just wish they would. I'm still sort of amazed that it became this political thing. We should be more together on something like this - COVID is all of our enemy.

Actually, you were too whining and complaining. What is this? Did you not just type this a few hours ago? "Well then we all have to stop working, stop eating, stop walking outside of our homes, stop driving, stop living basically..."

You also lied about this. "Alllllllll persons who get seriously ill with a virus have an immune disorder and are severely compromised." That's total crap. If their immune system was that faulty, they would have died from some other infection long before this novel coronavirus came along. You do understand the infectious disease word "novel," don't you? As in, has not been seen before, no presently-living people have encountered it or have immunity to it?
I too am enjoying my life -- the only one granted -- immensely. That being said, I also practice doing things that have been proven to help keep my fellow passengers safe. I wear a mask, I wash my hands frequently, I stay six feet or more from others, I don't go to crowded venues. I don't put down those who fall ill by telling others that they "have poor immune systems," because that's a lie. I *do*, however, put down those who take stupid, selfish, and foolish risks with their own lives -- and worst of all, the lives of others. Despite the best efforts of ppl like you and the rest of you RWNJ science-deniers, most of us understand that the virus is nothing to mess around with.
Stop spreading misinformation.
Exhibit A: #COVID45's abortion of a rally in Tulsa. The "this is no worse than the flu" message promoted by your masters fell on a lot of deaf ears. I bet Mr. Cain wishes his hadn't been plugged up with the stupid.

"if we all wear masks, wash hands & distance, it can make a significant difference."
But, see? I'm an adult. You are, too. Everything you stated ^^^ is simple common sense.
It's not my fault if some won't use common sense. Yet, at the same time I won't spend my short life fighting
with people who won't use common sense. It's not something that can be demanded or taught...hence the
term "common" sense.
Another example? OK. You saw all those rioters and looters. Were they using "common" sense? No.
Yet, pols and officials completely allowed it...no resistance...even catered to them.
"Common" sense is quickly departing all over the world. Make no mistake. It will get worse.
