The point is not assuming the government has your best interests at heart. You have the right of self defense in this country. That applies to anything that could harm you, including disease. You are free to defend yourself any way you see fit. You think masks work? Good for you. Wear two. Stay indoors. Suit up in PPE that really works. You can do anything you want to protect yourself until you demand what I need to do to keep you happy. You don't have the right to impose your opinions on me especially when science doesn't back you up. Blindly obeying the government cost 15,000 of the most frail & weakest New Yorkers their lives. Get the point?

Tell that delusional nonsense to the 15,000 elderly killed by NY governor Cuomo. The NY assembly granted him " emergency powers". Nobody called him on this as he sent hospitalized covid infected elderly people back into nursing homes. The motive for any of this is power. The power to ignore the science. The power to demand your obedience. The power to trample over your rights as an American. I have no quarrel with solidly fact based decisions made in the public interest but this is not one of them. Without the truth, you only have opinions. Didn't we leave a religion that made life & death decisions based on their opinions?

Masks don't work. Look it up. Google "masks don't work scientific studies". Seven randomized controlled tests over 11 years. They are effective to a point if you are symptomatic as the the coughing & sneezing encapsulate the covid in droplets. Unfortunately, most people who are in public are asymptomatic; no coughing or sneezing. The virus is 1 to 2 microns in diameter. If you have facial hair, the masks don't work. If you are old with creases in your face, the masks don't work. If you glasses fog up, the masks don't work. Also, in America you have the right to defend yourself. You feel safer wearing a mask? Go right ahead, that's your right. You have no right to demand others wear a mask. After all, the mask on your face is protecting you right? Hell, feel free to wear a Level A hazmat spacesuit. That's your right of self defense.

I look back on my life & realize all major mistakes fall at the feet of the JW leadership. No college, no birthdays, basically no celebrations. Lived my younger years as an outcast. Married during the scare of 75. Married out of survival; not love. Stayed with my wife for 34 years. Was not fair to her; not to myself. She died 5 years later of a drug overdose. Looking forward to a future with no pension, little in savings. Lost my oldest daughter to this hideous cult. Lost my grandchildren. I wish for the opportunity as one of the thousands who suffered at their feet, for a day of accounting. For all the crushed lives, the ones who died in vain. For those who sacrificed everything for these scumbags. For you, I wish there was a real Hell. I would like some relief comforting myself in your eternal torment.

I carry a Smith & Wesson. I was attacked on my own property by a crazed man who had just beaten up my carpentry crew. I called 911, ran out of my project trailer & yelled at him to leave. He came after me. I was 65, standing in the middle of a field. I knew I was not going to outrun this guy. It was either kill him or take a beating or worse. I took the beating. After him trying to break my neck, I was able to get on my knees to pull out the Smith & Wesson. Before I could pull out the gun, he stopped & walked away. The State Troopers & County Sheriff arrived minutes later. The Troopers chased him down the road & tazed him. The Sheriff asked to see my gun & permit. I took a few stitches. He was remanded to a mental health institution for 4 years. A year later, he broke into his mother's home & beat her to death with a hammer. For those of you who wonder if I would have killed him had he not stopped, the answer is yes. He would be dead & his mother would be alive. I could easily live with that.

Masks don't work. Period. You have to be fit tested in the mask. If you have a beard or stubble, the mask doesn't work. Any gap in the mask makes the mask useless. Cloth masks are even worse. The virus is 1 to 2 microns in diameter. The gap in the best thread count is 9 microns or better. Do the math. Want to test your mask? Spray some room freshener in your home & walk through the mist with your mask on. Do you smell the freshener? Your mask isn't working. The only people who need to protect themselves are those at risk. The rest of us have a .024 percent of death from covid. You have a better chance of dying by getting hit by an elephant falling out of the sky.

A little background first. My first father- in-law, Levi Peterson was born in 1889. He personally knew Rutherford. He started the Newark, NY congregation. There was a letter that hung in the Palmyra, NY foyer that recommended an interested person contact my father-in-law. It was signed by Rutherford. I grew up as a witness. Gave my first talk at 9. Left the cult at 59. I have a half a century of Bible training. I know the cult intimately. The cult refuses to celebrate birthdays & holidays even though there is no direct Biblical edict in doing so. They claim there is sufficient evidence to formulate a principal instead. OK. Let's apply that principal to the very beginning of the cult. You would expect for something this monumental to be directed from the voice of Jehovah himself. Not the case. Russell plagiarized his belief in 1914 from John Aquila Brown, a Seventh Day Adventist. John had been throwing dates at a dart board for decades as to when Armageddon would start. After a number of tries, he hit on 1914. Russell picked up on this & they hit a winner. Now, back to holidays. The underlying principal as to why JW's don't celebrate is that the origins are pagan. It doesn't matter how people today feel about the holiday, the origins are all important to Jehovah. That being the case, I put it to all Witnesses. Do you think Jehovah would approve of a religion that has it's origin in Christiandom? I think not. You are a false religion and as you recall Revelation's call to flee from false religion, it's time to leave.......

Do You Feel Your Rights Are Being Trampled On By Government Regarding Coronavirus?
by minimus ini support local and state and federal government’s power to safeguard the public.
i wonder is it getting to a point where we will be told we can’t go out anymore, can’t use your phone or computer anymore because of the viruses that we can get, etc.
are we prolonging this virus at all ?

It's a question of risk over freedom. Where do you let the government draw the line. Think 60,000 Americans who have died of this disease warrant the government to decide your freedom? Try 480,000 Americans who die every year from smoking. Should we allow the government to outlaw cigarettes? How about other activities that have risk? Lowering the speed limit to 55 MPH would save 10,000 lives every year. What we're talking about is having the government & not you decide what is acceptable risk. If you believe this pandemic could kill you, feel free to use all necessary precautions. Stay at home. Wear a facemask. Hell, wear a Level A spacesuit. It's your right to decide what level of risk you're willing to take, not the government's.

Do You Believe Joe Biden Sexually Assaulted A Woman In The 90’s?
by minimus inthere is an allegation floating around saying he assaulted one of his female staffers .
most mainstream media do not report on this claim.
they either don’t believe it or don’t want to believe it.. funny how if it were brett kavanaugh or donald trump, they would be all over it.

No one in their right mind would vote for Biden. This guy can't string three sentences together coherently without looking like an idiot. He's not called "Creepy Joe" for no reason. He became the last choice of the Democratic Party. Let that sink in; he's the party's best shot to beat Trump. I wouldn't be surprised if the next four years becomes the slow demise of the Democratic Party. And that's all due to their own self destruction. Unfortunately, the country needs that balance provided by both parties.

Covid 19 - expert says it's hype!
by The Fall Guy inlol!
having commented earlier on experts' differing views, here's a prominent german physician/politician - wolfgang wodarg - who made controvorsial statements that the coronavirus "pandemic" is not out of the ordinary and that italy's mortality rate (8,215 deaths from coronavirus so far) is no greater than it would normally be from the 'flu virus.
in 2017/18 approx 18,000 italians died due to the flu.. the wikipedia section - controversial theses in the 2020 covid 19 crisis - is worth examining.

China, with a population of 3.3 billion had deaths totaling 3,304. Keep in mind the government squashed this for 2 months before admitting publicly they had a problem. Deaths currently from the virus are zero. This was over a period of 4 months.
