Flubros and Flubras! Day 87 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

About 400 dead in each of the past two days, which is down from a peak of 2600 about two months ago. Why is opening things up still an issue? Austin Texas is apparently extending its lockdown until 15 August because of some sort of outbreak. They say that 14 new cases in a city over a million is a big deal. The virtue signaling by politicians by extending the lockdown is ridiculous. The media, including Drudge, hyped up any new case/outbreak of it.

And I am sick of fake kids sports - now they let them practice as long as they don’t go near each other. This is especially dumb for contact sports.

And the liability waivers are for everything now. A guy sued a girl because she gave him a cold sore on the first date. You can imagine that the frivolous lawsuits related to healthy people getting a mild case of Corona will be coming.

118,283 TOTAL DEAD

Of which probably 60% actually died from the disease. The others probably died from something else but tested positive for it. Statistics... whatever you want to show you can.

U.N. rights body to examine 'systemic' U.S. racism and police brutality
Reuters ^ | 6/15/2020 | Stephanie Nebehay

The U.N. Human Rights Council’s decision followed a request last week by Burkina Faso on behalf of African countries in response to the killing of George Floyd, an African American, on May 25 under the knee of a white Minneapolis police officer. His death has ignited protests across the nation and worldwide.

I understand your perspective but let me give a counter point. If you see under 65 and in ok health your chances of this being anything but miserable is pretty high. Remember somewhere approaching 80% are asymptomatic and 98% have mild cases. You claim you are a doctor. But you violate your first oath of doing no harm by perpetuating false information.

Essentially we are saying that we are going to quarantine people for a bad cold or flu. My question is at what point does it stop. Does this mean anyone with corona virus (not covid 19) or influenza gets quarantined? If intellectually honest that means we would quarantine all people with the creeping crud in the winter months. Under penalty of fine or who enforces it?

This is a deliberate blow at freedom. I get it. If you are sick stay home. A decent lesson for all. But enforcement? Health police? Fine people?

This is simply beyond ridiculous. I am not hopeful we will ever regain our sense of safety. We are all to afraid. It’s sad. I am sure in a couple years we will go back to normal but this period will me marked at an irrational response to a mild disease at best. But we gladly sacrificed our freedoms and our liberties for scare tactics that are not even remotely based on science.

And our side is equally as guilty.
Rummy Chick who continues to perpetuate fear
Kozac who daily posts the death count and compares to war
Travis McGee who has never met anything that shouldn’t stomp on Liberty
ExDeMom who assumes an air of authority and stolen valor to pump fear
DannyTn who has occasional flashes of rationality amid all the nonsense
VermontLt whose Personal situation has made him a target for the misinformation

Yes, we have those on our side all of whom are controlled by fear, some of whom attempt to sound educated in the face of multiple rebukes from
Confirmed literature and still peddle fearporn. We can only assume because they love not liberty and are so afraid that they are willing to sacrifice everyone for their personal perspective

It’s really pretty simple. All life comes to a risk benefit analysis. There is not one person forcing anyone who is terrified in public. Each of them has the right to wear a knights helmet with its own air source for all I care if it makes them feel safe. They can wrap their house in plastic and flood it with Uv light and never come out as is their prerogative

The market is providing for touch less delivery and distancing so they don’t have to come out of their home

But why is this not good enough. The real question is why do they need to make sure I live according to their standards. The founding fathers taught is that each of us is responsible for our own liberty. They enshrined the first amendment for this and when that fails enshrined for us amendment two.

Each of us can live freely assessing our own safety without imposing it on someone else. Don’t want to go to a packed night club and dance with sweaty 20 year olds? Then don’t! But don’t say I or someone else can’t. And if the market judges that risk to be too high then the brutal force of the market will force change or extinction. And the problem is solved. Without losing a shred of liberty.

We no longer believe in our way of life. Nor do we believe in our founding. It really is a surrogate for our loss of faith and I am sure God is weeping. He did not create is to be afraid. He made us to love Him and one another. In all of this we are separating from other human beings. In that loneliness and separation we become easy targets for the Promises of man and the devil instead of living for God. And our fall and descent to loneliness, isolation and hell is compete.

“””Comparing him to John F’n Kerry might be a bit much.”””


Wittingly or unwittingly, he and the fearpers are aiding and abetting the Left’s agenda against President Trump while proudly virtue-signalling. Kerry would be pleased.

Understood. I just think he’s being a p****, not a traitor.

You missed Wastoute. He was carrying on with what seemed like a hundred (or more) daily postings, everywhere on FR, touting his medical expertise and stroking his chin alongside DannyTN and HockeyStick McGee about the impending end of civilization.

He is also one of the "don't you know who I am?" types and basically castigated those who did not respect his authority. He's disappeared since mid-May. I guess he's too embarrassed to show up on these threads nowadays.

The media, including Drudge

What is this "Drudge" thing of which you speak?

Not sure you meant to post to me because all I see is ramblings and I never claimed to be a Doctor?
As I posted yesterday my wife and I never locked down and never wore mask which is like TSA.. they do little if anything but it’s a feel good measure for those who need it.

My life has changed little except as I mentioned going out to eat 1 - 2 times a week.

We’re not the least bit afraid and we’re over 65, take no medications other than the usual Ibuprofen for aches and pain. To me it’s the flu, nothing more nothing less and anyone that has underlying conditions should take the usual precautions like any other flu. False information is what’s being pedaled and I don’t buy into any of it.

I live in a rural remote setting by choice. I can’t see any neighbors so social distancing by design long before the mandated BS. I hate cities and you can look around and see why. They are the shxtholes of society filled with liberal totally clueless scum.

I’ll be headed out fishing shortly, may take a hike or go for a swim and will BBQ on the deck with a cold beer later.

Looking at new cases is counter productive. The only statistic that counts is number of available hospital and ICU beds. If there are enough open beds to handle the caseload there should be NO restrictions

That picture shows that Kojack was overweight even in his younger days. I’m guessing he’s now pushing 300 lbs., is diabetic, and has high blood pressure so likely could be a poster child for death by Covid. That would explain a lot. Of course, he would love for three hundred million of us to stay home and stop living life to protect him.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is what you meant to say.
