    Not really. Both had people killed and both talk in circles.

    They also both have the ability of brainwashing naive people into a following.

    Well, color me naive, then.

    At any rate, I just threw out that Trump stuff tongue-in-cheek, understanding the context of all the recent posts.

    No, I never said or implied anything of the sort. I said I'd prefer taking advice on what/how to post from the Mods...because they have the hammer.

    Just a thought.

    Let's say that the corona virus first started in the USA and trump comes out in a briefing downplaying it like he did and telling people there is no problem and that it will just go away. We have 15 cases and all but one are almost fully recovered and the 15th is getting much better. How would that be any better than China?

    I am aware that the Manson cult murdered a pregnant woman. The trial was going on the day of the first national women's rights march in 1970, yes, I went to the march. Manson's female followers showed up in court with their hair in long curls as a protest against women's rights.

    And yes, Manson called himself pro life because of his opposition to legal abortion. Not calling you Manson, however.

    That is quite encouraging. Stark contrast to my state where nearly 20% of the 32000+ have tested positive.

    So ignore sound advice merely because it doesn't come with a punishment for not following?

    Got it...

    If he didn’t, and others around here joined the movement, would we then be post posters’ post modification?

    Do you not see the question mark at the end? Its a question of clarification because that's what it sounds like. I didn't say he said that. Why do you even quote and respond to me when I need psychiatric help?

    ok, thanks. My concern is that Oregon has over 4 million people and less than 25,000 have been tested. We have no idea how many are actually carrying the virus but it's nice to see Oregon's numbers so low right now and hope it continues. I just keep reading about people who have had some symptoms still being refused testing throughout the country.

    A childhood friend of mine got tested, it came back negative. Then he said the doctors are going to treat him like he has it anyways. I have other friends who haven't been able to get tested. I'm not sure what he did that put him in the special group to get tested or if he got lucky. He's very much enjoying his time where he can play video games all day long though. He won't stop texting me about all the games he's playing.

    It's a shame they can't get more tests done though, more data is always good IMO.
