Not many younger, healthy people with no underlying conditions wound up dead. I wasn't trying to be a badass or buck the system. I could blatantly see the level of crazy they were pushing was bullshit. I didn't run up to people and cough on them. I didn't make fun of people for masking or getting the injection. Myself and my family simply kept on living as normal. RE: Roe Vs Wade Overturned - Nately120 - 07-18-2023 (07-18-2023, 01:59 PM)Mickeypoo Wrote: Love the sarcasm bro!

Can't think of a single thing a concrete nightmare hell hole city could provide me that I don't already have. Whole lot of negatives though. I live in a rural area too. Still wore our masks to the stores and around people who could be compromised. But yeah, it only killed a few people who completely thought it was BS so what the hell. Nothing like "knowing" a global pandemic was BS better than everyone else just so you "live life" for a couple months. Good job. ![]() RE: Roe Vs Wade Overturned - Mickeypoo - 07-18-2023 (07-18-2023, 02:06 PM)Nately120 Wrote: Are you being sarcastic about my sarcasm?

How far away is the nearest city, regional or larger airport, mall, Best Buy, nationwide food chains?

I had to get the jab to kerp my job. So the next time someone says nobody wants to work any more, remeber that I am so driven and heroic that I allowed myself to be pumped full of cancer and microchips just to keep my working class hero status. Damn, I'm an inspiration.

The next clue was when I learned the percent of deaths of age 20 or less. Who said it was "ok to riot and burn things down with no masks"? Also, children can spread COVID as easily as adults, right? So if COVID spreads through a school and the children bring it home to older family members, that could increase the mortality rate even if the effect on children is negligible, right? The point was to stop or at least lower transmission of disease. The more I look at the data, the more think efforts to control the virus made a difference. More would if lived if fewer had not so immediately recognized that national efforts to promote vaccine and socially distance were just government "bullshit." Still wondering what you Fauci's biggest "scientific lie" was. I t would also be nice to know which "lies" you think did the most damage, cost the most lives during the pandemic.

I know you are not MAGA. Just arguing that state responses, including those in Florida, were not separate from Trump/MAGA framing of the pandemic response, which harmed more than it helped. Cost lives, especially of people groomed to "see through" government actions.

If we had a way of telling, I doubt it would be higher than the normal annual flu deaths. But we've beaten this horse over and over with all the deaths being grouped under covid related. I know most people in my area did things normal as well. I had 1 employee die which really sucked. He was a real good guy. But he was also a smoker for over 40yrs and had problems walking 50ft without gasping for air. My aunt and uncle died also. they lived in SC and both were in their 80's. Not that age makes it ok, just stating details. Quote:This isn't a new thing, though. During World War 2, British residents endured blackouts where their windows/doors/any source of light had to be covered or turned off. This made it more difficult for German bombers to hit their targets without the city light to guide them. There were citizens who still had to be forced to do so because they were upset that it disrupted their daily lives/activities. I'm currently reading "Diary of a young girl," which is the unedited version of Anne Franks diary. She mentioned this very thing in one of her conversations with Kitty (Kitty is the name she gave her diary). Not so much for bombers, but for soldiers on the ground. I've completed about 60% of the book so I'm not sure if they did the same for bombers (rumors that if Gremans had to retreat, they would destroy cities on their way out). Just realized this is Roe vs. Wade thread. In an attempt to get it back on track, where are we at on the thread topic?

Well, for people not in Ohio, the Ohio illegally gerrymandered (per multiple bipartisan Ohio Supreme Court Decisions) Republican supermajority state legislature is trying to ram through a major change to the Ohio Constitution in August in an attempt to derail a Reproductive Rights Amendment that will be on the ballot in Nov. So games are still being played. Right now, Ohioans can amend their Constitution by a simple majority. Republicans want to change that to a 60% threshold. Coincidently, the Reproductive Rights Amendment is polling at about 58%. Additionally, they want to change the number of signatures needed and changed the timeline to the point in the future that getting any citizen-led amendments on the ballot is virtually impossible. Then after making August elections illegal except for very specific fiscal emergencies because of high cost (over $20 million) and low turnout (less than 10%), the Republicans put Issue 1 on the ballot as a stand-alone election in August. This current State House has already shown they are willing to subjugate the State Constitution (see illegally gerrymandered districts), no one, Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal should hand over more power to them. Issue 1 has more serious long-term effects than simply stopping an amendment that a majority of Ohioans are indicating they are for.

But the signs on the no side like “Don’t destroy our democracy” are over the top stupid. Our federal government requires more than simple majority, and I’ve never heard anyone say it destroyed our democracy.

RE: Roe Vs Wade Overturned - pally - 08-09-2023 Well Ohio republicans tried to put an impediment in the way of voters in order to prevent a reproductive rights amendment on the ballot in Nov from passing. Issue 1 sought to raise the vote percentage needed to approve state constitutional amendments from a simple majority to a 60% supermajority. The amendment was soundly rejected by Ohioans 57-43 so it remains a simple majority vote. Coincidentally, or not, polling indicates that the reproductive rights amendment is expected to pass by about that same margin. When a party gerrymanders themselves into a supermajority in the state legislature, sometimes they need a reminder that they don’t always represent a majority viewpoint.

I went to bed before the results came in on 1, and I'm glad to see that Ohio rejected the blatant nonsense to ignore the will of the people the Republicans came out with. In the immortal words of Shawn Micheals - suck it, GoP. RE: Roe Vs Wade Overturned - GMDino - 08-09-2023 Funny way of saying "the citizens have spoken and I respect their choice".
But then these don't like choice.

I will say it was pretty interesting seeing the list of damn near all the elected politicians in OH saying "Vote YES on this!" and then watching NO win by 14 points. Given that, I guess it makes sense that they want to change things so a "regular majority" can't have its way. |
