    been saying this for a year and have been insulted for it for a year. I'm callous. Heartless.

    Disgusting. Despicable.
    I dont want to actually solve the problem. I AM part of the problem….


    No one here will ever backstep and say whoa. Maybe OB had some points.
    Never.
    And watch this post will trigger some people into yet another defensive stance while providing new insults.

    Instead of saying, yeah.. its gotten really bad out there….

    Ya, there were some sketchy tents over where the employees park. At least they had security there, but that shit definitely needs to be scooped up. It was REALLY bad last season!

    Maybe fans should reach out to the team and let them know they don’t feel safe walking to the arena?

    OK, sounds like they are far away from the decommissioned stack - and sort of "neighbors" of ours.

    Unless it's the .01% of Americans who supposedly died from COVID-19.

    1 divided by 500 is .002.

    That's people who died from something else, with COVID-19 playing absolutely no discernable part, but they were found to have been exposed to some sort of coronavirus such as a common cold or flu or possibly even COVID-19. According to the CDC, to arrive at the number of deaths actually caused by COVID-19 you have to multiply the "Deaths WITH COVID-19" number that they publish to promote panic by .06 to get the percentage of people who died FROM COVID-19. Currently that's about 70,000 Americans, nearly all of them over 70 years old and/or already dying from one or more comorbidities.

    Well I’ve written it over and over and never been called a name, I think everyone is in agreement that it’s a fucking mess.

    oh i know

    because some people play favs and are biased.
    I mean one guy gives me crap for pointing out what he likes. Tries to spin it like i have a fixation with watching likes when all i do is check my alerts and he is right there liking the post i was quoted in. No extra effort to see, but he cries out like i have a concerning issue with my fixation on likes.

    but completely dismisses how he wasn't a part of the post but still digs them up and likes any post arguing with me. Its kind of concerning the stalker type following going on there….

    Those who are in agreement now, cant own up to the shit they flung at me for saying this for the last year, what you just said.

    its why I'm so abrasive these days. Very few people own their shit here and instead spin and deflect.

    Totally. I actually don’t think there have been any Covid deaths, these people actually all died from their heart stopping. It’s true

    Yes. The court has basically ruled that we either have to house them or let them be (barring actions requiring 24hr notices, etc). I haven't seen anything that would change that.

    It's frankly appalling and embarrassing.
