I'm sorry, but in the grand scheme of things that kill us all the time, that simply isn't that many. Certainly not enough to warrant a national lockdown, suspension of certain liberties, widespread panic, etc.. I would certainly be upset if my family members died of COVID, but that would be true of anything they died of. Combine that with the FACT that we could easily target the at risk population as opposed to blanket one-size-fits-all for everybody, and absolutely, we are fear peddling and politicizing the crap out of this thing. To think otherwise at this point is just willful ignorance or blind partisanship.

They may not have pulled 175K out of their ass, but the press certainly did with the coverage of it.

Donald's sister was secretly recorded by Donald's niece.

During the conversation, the sister - without any prompting by the niece - came out and said that someone else took Donald's entrance exams for him to get into college. The sister even offered the guy's name.

Not sure how it could get much more incriminating than that.

So you’re telling me that in all the normal background checks and reviews done for POTUS candidates and for someone actually elected to POTUS on top of all the crap investigations by the Dems, MSM, Mueller’s team, NY Southern District, and on and on and on and this never came up? That makes zero sense. The words you posted said “I believe”. That isn’t proof of anything. If I say I believe you’re a moron does that mean you are?

I'm sorry but there is no such CBS/YouGov poll that shows Trump with a lead over Biden among independents. The latest CBS/YouGov poll does show Biden with a ten point lead over Trump: 52%-42%. Biden has also widened his lead in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Based on past deaths Covid isnt the leading cause of death in any state this year. Just looking quickly it looks like it's going to typically fall some where between #3 to #6.

In New York it falls at number 3. Which is the worst case scenario. And it's off number two by 8k. Stats of the State of New York
CDC COVID Data Tracker

Alaska has only had 32 deaths. The flu at number 10 kills 61. Soooooo, yeah. Good thing we shut them down. Stats of the State of Alaska

And since Tennessee is relevant to most on this board:1567
Which us almost 100 short of the flu/pneumonia combo. So it is number 9.

Stats of the State of Tennessee

Room for these to grow. But when you actually compare the data how is this a concern?

It's pretty obvious when you look at death rates per capita, the countries whose lockdown was late, incomplete, or non-existent clearly fared worse. Also, there are clear increases in cases and deaths when lockdowns have been lifted in other countries.

Now if you think 175,000 deaths is a relatively small number and were uncomfortable with the shutdown, that's one thing, but lockdowns clearly slowed the spread of the virus.

Lol.

I don’t think Joe is a pedo and I don’t think he is actually some kind of predator but damn that dude is WEIRD! Who the hell thinks it’s ok to put their hands on little girls like that? I was going to say the exception might be for relatives but some of his grabbing of the face, playing with the hair, and putting his face way too close is pretty iffy for even relatives.

Regardless, that is not appropriate behavior.

It's easy to see why you righties wouldn't want to talk about race. Do you thing race isn't an issue in America. Do you think it isn't an issue in this election. I have news for you, it's likely going to be the deciding issue.

Choose your martyrs well. Make sure to completely ignore the real problem and select them based on their political impact.
