    K, but just remember, there are MANY opposing views to the BLM mantra. Many. I've already gone a few rounds with Sly on this. He points me to all that's being done in selective areas, their website, other related articles, etc. I've pointed him to a few of mine, as well. It's still a highly debatable subject.

    That said, on a different note, would you not agree that Portland has pretty much become the epicenter for racially-motivated protests, semi-riots, and the like? If so, what are we hearing from the BLM "leadership"?? Are there any answers/solutions coming from them? You can call me tone deaf all you want, but I would think the BLM powers-that-be would have already blitzed themselves to Portland and given all of us a succinct message as to what needs to be happening. Don't you?

    Donald Trump doesn't give two shits about abortion, God, you or me and you do need to accept responsibility for your own actions...I wish you a speedy recovery but you went on vacation during a global pandemic and you voted for Trump....that's fucking up twice..you should absolutely regret it and I hope it doesn't have long lasting problems for you and your wife....I hope that sincerely..vote for him again and it's a third strike! being in the minority politically on a msg board isn't important....you shouldn't need a safe space here to spout Trump propoganda....maris never did. The guy who deserves to be attacked here everyday until Nov 3 is Donald Trump...you choose to prop up his bullshit and you will have to continually answer for propping up his bullshit...that's pretty simple.. Every election cycle is peppered with contention but this one is peppered with life threatening bad decisions

    PS: I'm still not certain we contracted COVID from our nurse friend. She doesn't have it. Can she be a "carrier"?

    No...it's who he is....he bought the info in his website, didn't create it. Yes that's my opinion...he doesn't give a shit and he's not religious by any exagerrated stretch of the imagination....he didn't just pop up out of the church and carry his bible to Washington DC.....it's a prop to him and he knows where the followers lie. He's about as false a prophet as has ever taken power

    She might be asymptomatic (meaning you have it but not show symptoms of it). I don't think you can be a "carrier" and not have it.

    I could be wrong, but I don't think that's how it works. I could have it and not know it (asymptomatic) and unknowingly spread it. Or I can have it and know it (showing signs, etc). Or I can not have it (and know or not know).

    Not if she doesn't have it I don't believe

    Maybe you got it from the plane or the rent a car or one of various other places you wouldn't have even thought you would get it from. Could have been something you touched rather than being around a person directly. Who knows

    speaking of policies...if he had one it should probably include pandemic safety....he can barely make himself wear a mask

    This seals it. I have been a fan since 1283 and a season ticket holder since 1301. #FireTheOttomanEmpire.

    The 9 people from one family who recently got covid got it at a frozen food plant in New Zealand...they were immediately locked down and backtraced.....covid can travel on cardboard, food, even steel surfaces...and it's airborne so someone exhaling it might not even be visible when you breathe the same air....meat has been a carrier...would be safer to go vegan until this passes. The second wave in September is supposed to be a rural wave...hit more sparse populations..I read there have been 18 mutations of the virus so far...you cured from one, another one can reinfect you

    No....see Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and especially South Side Chicago ....hell see the entire world....have you seen the racist exposure in England over BLM? Or are you just interested in Blue state propoganda?

    shredding the constitution and creating a monarchy seem to be his playbook so far...

    To ne
    Im pro choice and as it indicates it shoukd be the choice of the gal and/or Couple.
    Neither side should make this issue political.
    I realize the laws per state and fed can create an issue but if an abortion in needed it shouldn't be difficult.
