‘been had’... That’s putting it mildly... Sadly, they will all claim that ‘lock downs’ worked and that without them we would have all been dead... Thus the pressure for Japan and Sweden to lock down... That excuse won’t work unless the entire world locks down. The one Chinese province where they did ‘lock down’ in China accounted for 98% of their death totals.

This pandemic is the most overblown nonsense in history... That will be its epitaph.

Fearing the unknown without solid facts is illogical.

You have more chances of dying from a car accident. You presume it’s hunting us down and IF you catch it you die. Why would you think that?

Go ahead, live life afraid of everything and leave me alone. I like freedom. Get back to work.

BYW, influenza and pneumonia kill thousands more.

Possible. And I would not be surprised one bit if this corona virus was a plan concocted by the Communist Chinese, the criminal deep state and or the globalist. They've been trying to eliminate, compromise, undermine and overthrow Trump for 4 years. Trump the outsider, made good on his promises and built a super powered economy. And just when Trump ditches these anti-American trade policies where China was economically gang banging the U.S. for decades, they now stand to lose trillions. And within months, suddenly here comes the Chicom virus, leaving the U.S. economy all but dead on the floor? Coincidence?

Does anyone here thing the Communist Chinese, criminal deep state and or the globalist are too ethical or honorable to pull this off in an effort to destroy the outsider Trump in November?

Do these groups give two-sh*ts about killing a couple million in China? Do they give a rip about killing people in Italy or the U.S.? And what happens in about 8 months? Arguably, the biggest most important critical election in U.S. history.

From my perspective, this epic coincidence reeks like a 3 day old homicide scene.

Excellent.

The word “Coronagate” needs to go viral.

Seriously.

Has the world been had? This is a novel virus, meaning it has never been seen.

You obviously have been had. This is NOT a novel virus, despite it's name.

“...It was all a media and democrat created crisis, in order to make Trump look bad and get him out of office; one way or another.

Politics closed down the country and jobs and businesses. Coronavirus is bad, but not so bad that the economy had to take trillions of dollars in losses....”

Yep...Some of us have smelled “RAT” from the very get-go. It would not be out of the realm of possibilities that these communist SOBs colluded with the CCP on a deliberate release. IF so, and it can be proven, they need to hang the whole damn lot of em for treason.

The whole flippin' world has been "had".

Yup, I'd call the 'cure' as being many times worse than the disease.
We're seeing an implementation of a slow-motion/soft Martial Law - and suspension of our Constitutional Rights - right before our eyes.

Its a bad flu - but it is no reason to destroy America. We'd have gotten through it without this madness.

Get back to work.


Right....I have filed for three different tranches of Disaster assistance. All of our Spring Fairs and festivals have cancelled. We are talking events in three different states.


“Fearing the unknown without solid facts is illogical.”


Did you even read that my wife and I are over 60 and are prime candidates for “problems?”

There is a time for being Pollyanna and a time for knowing one’s limits. But thanks for the advice. We still have three cans of beans left and its a long way until 4th of July for our summer shows. You see, right now I should be in Logandale, NV at the Clark County Fair and Rodeo.


“Go ahead, live life afraid of everything and leave me alone. I like freedom. Get back to work.”


Leave you alone? You wrote me. And if you are willing to drop 50 grand in my lap for lost March revenue...I would be willing to go back to work...

Speculation
The Wuhan lab was obviously working on a bioweapon .....it seems.....but perhaps it accidentally escaped before it was suppose to....
...in other words, it was meant to be far worse, and was not finished

That was my take on it. The virus got loose before it was weaponized and a vaccine and treatment developed for it.
You have to develop a vaccine and treatment for your use before using the virus on the enemy.

I believe the overreaction of many countries , including ours , was because they thought it was a weaponized virus, and it took time to discern, it wasn't at that stage. -Tom

SARS-CoV-2 (the novel coronavirus that causes coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19)

You mean novel does not mean “new”....oh, okay. Thanks for clearing it up for all of us.

It definitely attacks the lungs. It does seem to destroy the capacity of red blood cells to carry oxygen. And it does seem that the establishment does not want people to consider low cost easy to find things like Vitamin C, Vitamin D, or zinc or even inexpensive drugs like hydroxychloroquine or Azithromycin to be used to save lives. At any rate, in case you have friends or a loved one you would like to see saved, check out the following.

Sounds like the claim they started today over Ohio flatline

OK....Thanks

This is what I think!

Biblically speaking there is noted....’what Satan meant for evil, God uses for good’

In other words....we have been given a huge opportunity to prepare......we have been shown mercy!

The world has endured a hard lesson.......but will now be better prepared, if, perish the thought , there is a next time

We trust our President and we did what he told us.....It was clear he hated to shut down the economy

The pieces are all coming together and we may yet rid ourselves of WHO

The American Spirit survives and we were creative, industrious, self sacrificing and noble
We found our ‘better angel’ within.....once more

And we are warned now and will resist any vaccine coming from Bill Gates
We will question motives such as Fauci/Birx and find out who their connections are

We will never take our President for granted again and will work our hearts out to get him re-elected!

On one hand, we have a collective group of retards known as chicken FReepers salivating in pure orgasmic delight at the prospect of a million dead.

However, on the other we have a number of bumbling fools who haven't quite figured out the nimble nature of one Donald J Trump.

Here's a hypothetical situation - pan film noir: Someone is to try to hang a frame on you, but in the meantime, they are going to grant you unlimited police powers. Question: Do you meekly acquiesce to the set-up and take the fall, or do you use the abilities your enemies have for some reason granted you to reverse the situation?

Why is that no one - including the author - focusing on the fact that Trump, enabled by the sanction granted by two MD experts, issued a national security emergency declaration giving him sole authority to act in the "national interest"? That means essentially no congressional nor judicial oversight while acting without restraint as a (semi) dictator.

Is Trump so pure and virtuous that he wouldn't heed the advice of "never let a crisis go to waste"? What would an average man off the street have done if given just 20 minute to think about his options? Now, what about a street smart player from NYC?

Well, how about this for starters:

- border controls
- travel restrictions
- moderated sanctuary states
- re-homed domestic production
- import tariffs
- lower oil prices
- undeclared cartel operations
- $8-10T to invest/re-direct US economy
Here's some math for those less inclined to really think this through:

- 2 trillion CV bill
- 4 trillion Fed reserve window
- 2 trillion infrastructure bill
- 2 trillion China reparations (TBD)

$10 trillion dollars divided by 100 million Americans comes out out to $100k each. Is anyone getting the picture yet? Trump has so much money, so much buffer, that he can let the current lock down last for months, while still maintaining the ability to pay everyone off ie make whole.

So, guess who's going to begin screaming about re-opening the country? Who's gonna begin going on about "muh backward slope"? LOL Shit people, have a little faith.

Then by all means, hide in your bunker with your toilet paper. But realize that is YOUR decision as YOU are responsible for your own health. It's not mine or anyone else's job to stop living because you are afraid and you certainly do not have the right to demand it of us.
