    One of the reasons the folks with CDS (Corona Derangement Syndrome) are pissing in the wind is because at this point surely everyone personally knows at least one person who has had Corona, they know multiple people secondhand who have had Corona, and/or they've had Corona themselves. Since the vast majority of cases have only cold-like symptoms or less, it becomes increasingly harder to scare people into complying with mandates or buying into the fear-mongering.

    Not to mention, the mandates often seem nonsensical at best (like, if you're wearing a mask why do you need to be six feet apart, if you're six feet apart why do you need to wear a mask, if two people are conversing and one is wearing a mask why does the other one need to wear a mask, why do you need a mask to walk thru a restaurant but not to sit down, how come the same politicians who pass these mandates don't follow the mandates themselves, and on and on.....) Add to that the fact that even the most loyal mask devotees are usually "doing it wrong" (it's dirty, they're touching it with their hands, it isn't covering their nose and/or mouth, they haven't washed it since the first shutdown in March, or they're wearing a mask but they're failing in every other category of cleanliness and rarely wash their hands, like the people who use the public restroom and don't wash their hands but hey, they've got their mask on, hooray!)

    It's also hard to push shutdowns when they hurt the "real people" (the local owners and little guys) the most, and yet it's A-OK to go to Walmart, go figure, and Amazon is raking in gazillions (and those products don't pack, ship, and deliver themselves, but it's ok for them to stay open....) And as long as rioting is ok, how can anyone justify limiting churches, beaches, gyms (or WALKING if you live in nutty California, LOL! You can riot but you're not supposed to go on walks!)

    Now you have really screwed up, how dare you challenge the "experts," the CDS folks will hunt you down, you will be doxed and subsequently severely punshied.

    No one under the new world rules is allowed to think for themselves, or decide how they will protect themselves and you have clearly violated that doctrine and now you will pay the price for doing so.

    Maybe when you are taking that train ride to a retraining center, we can meet and have a discussion about it.

    I'm sure he could make neither a decent cup of tea or a vaccine. But her statement of rejecting a Trump vaccine implies...what? That vaccine's made during the Trump administration are dangerous, or that Trump ordered a dangerous vaccine to be made? She made a stupid comment that helps damage the credibility of vaccines with the public. The idea that she thinks there could be a publicly available vaccine that's dangerous because of politics is anti-vaxxer 101.

    Do you really believe the first line? Because it would explain the following two. But if not then maybe consider relaxing a bit on the rhetoric. Lawful ordinances mandating a standard that keeps people safe, which is what I'm a proponent of, is a far far far cry from what you're alluding to. You know, not for nothing but at some point we're going to have to get past this and remember whats most important.

    On a day when the new infection count in FL is again over 10k and a week after it hit 17K this is, without a doubt, nothing more than a continuation of DeSantis' ongoing Trump Knobography.

    From his clumsy attempt to cover up the deaths to this bit of idiocy we can safely place the deaths of thousands of Floridians at DeSantis' doorstep and, by extension, everyone supporting this stupidity.

    But, I'm OK with idiots killing themselves ESPECIALLY in an idiotic political stance. Dying and killing others to make a political statement, ESPECIALLY a statement supported by none of the science, will guarantee one thing...

    A Democratic governor in 2022.

    This bit of stupidity is what cost Trump an easy reelection.

    You're twisting what she said.
    She was making a cheap point about Trump's unreliability not the unreliability of the vaccine.
    As it happens I agree that it was a stupid thing to say, particularly as it will be taken out of context and could lead to a lower uptake of the vaccine.
    I hope you understand now that she is not an anti vaxxer merely a dumb arse politician taking a cheap shot at an easy target.

    That's 100% false, per the Florida Department of Health the new infection is 7.30%, not your false number of over 10%.

    And if she doesn't it is just because she's a "dumb arse" political hack pandering to her low information sycophantic fans, so it's okay, all hail the divisive partisan b*tch because she's cheerleading for the Democrats and enough of them love that stuff!

    It's basically what you are calling for, your hate filled rhetoric knows bounds, if you don't get your way at the pools violence is all you have and violence it what you will turn to.

    And so far most of what has been issued are executive orders, not lawful ordinances which require hearings and input from all sides, what you are supporting is just the opposite, pass something you can agree with and all shall follow and that is not how free people are governed.

    That is rule by fiat and it knows no bounds and has no limits.

    It has been tried in the past to clean up a so called "problem" and 6 million people where murdered in the process.

    Regardless they still plan on shutting down Christmas.

    But Lil Mikes twin brother Ralphie will have none of that on his watch.

    I'm sure she will.
    I fully expect her and Biden to take theirs publicly along with the former Presidents.
    The only one I'm worried about not taking it is "maybe I'm immune" Trump

    What business of yours is what Trump does as a citizen?

    Or do you make it a habit of sticking you nose into other people private business?

    Either way, the extremists on the left will complain if Trump takes the vaccine OR if he doesn't. They'll call it a political stunt or something if he takes it, and they'll call him an anti-vaxxer or something else if he doesn't.

    Who gives a sh*t what the left thinks about what Trump does. And who gives a sh*t what the extremists on the left think about anything.

    Who are you calling an extremist on the left?
    If anyone is an extremist it is someone who goes against all medical advice and refuses to take the vaccine which is our only way of putting this pandemic behind us and starting the financial recovery.

    False, common sense dictates one doesn't take a rushed to market lightly tested vaccine, unless one is looking to become a unpaid human Guinea Pig.

    Second, there is no long term assurance the vaccine will work for any amount of time, possibly requiring repeated dose's, or worse yet it causes the virus to mutate into something considerably more dangerous.such as a form of myositis.

    And last, but not least, should the vaccine cause long term health problems or deaths, there is no legal recourse to be made whole again, as the manufacturers have been granted immunity from lawsuits.

    Given those circumstances only a fool would allow themselves to be injected with syringe full of such a Dr. Kevorkian like fluid.

    Trump probably is immune.

    It seems that a rational vaccine distribution plan would have the people who've previously already had COVID at the bottom of the priority list.

    Not your job, go mind your own business and cease playing Miami Virus Cops.

    You lack any authority to be involved.

    It did work.

    But, unlike Trumpinistas they're not talking about a "lockdown" but ACTUALLY MANAGING THE PANDEMIC!

    What, you mean you can choose between the absolute failure of the Trumpinistas to manage, even within their own houses, a deadly pandemic and another extreme that is as bad?

    Just think what might have happened if Cap'n Cheeto had decided to be president instead of failing, again, at running for president.

    If that is true, why does it need to repeated again, which is happening in many parts of the U.S.?

    Are you just not from around here or just ignorant of standard usage?

    NOTHING in my post referenced any percentages.
    I did use the 'K' in a number reference indicating THOUSANDS of events.

    Not surprising that someone protecting DeSantis' incompetence and malfeasance wouldn't know these things.
