Coffee and TV

I know 1984 gets overused a lot on both sides of the political spectrum, but jesus christ...

"I told them to slow down the testing" Yeah, Hillary or Biden would be far worse...

What about this doc in Houston saying they're running out of ICU beds? Is he a part of the media?

full contact football for everyone!

Allow me to clarify: because this virus has gotten so out of control from people not taking responsibility, we can't go back to sports viewing like normal. We're too far past simply having 20-30k in Apogee with masks at this point, the only solution will be a vaccine. At best we'll be back to sports with about 10-25% capacity, but things will probably only get worse come fall.

ICU beds at 74% in Dallas

I don't have the energy to parse through all the nonsense so I'll just pull this out and keep it really simple: you won't see me, nor likely anyone else probably at Apogee this year because you won't be there either. Do you know why? Because it would be far too great of a risk to have thousands of people crowded into a stadium where they will be cheering, eating, and sharing a lot of water droplets that transmit this disease and allow it to spread like wildfire in the right conditions. That's why when you turn on the TV you see European Soccer, NASCAR, and horse racing being played in empty stadiums: because crowding people together for large events in a stadium is generally a bad idea. Why must they play in empty stadiums? Because people like yourself who might be asymptomatic or not showing symptoms yet, refuse to do something as simple as wear a mask and therefore the virus continues to spread.

When you totally understand the movie Network.

This is some really scary shit when people start posting stuff like this. A very avoidable contagious disease is sweeping through the country killing more boomers than the Vietnam War ever did, due to a lack of mitigation from said country's government, and you're just gonna accept it under the premise of people die of other stuff every day?

Yeah sure, dude totally deserved to end up in the hospital because he didn't like cops, and cops never lie to make themselves the innocent victims. Just like Seattle PD saying they got "explosive devises" thrown at them. Aka CANDLES. Or how about Austin PD tweeting about all the nice thank yous and well-wishes they've received in the mail, which were clearly fakes because all the handwriting is exactly the same? Why do you people fall for this obvious garbage you're being sold? You wanna proudly brag about how you can see right through crooked politicians, but think their police forces are unimpeachable in all of this? Come on man.

Yeah and the response with that satirical flag wasn't to you, so what are you going on about? Not gonna care one bit about there being "two sides of the story" when police already made their report that he "tripped and fell over" despite the video that shows that was absolutely not the case. Clearly they are lying to try and save their asses, and pretending we're all stupid by making up some back story about how he's some revolutionary. And why should I care what race the mayor is, or what he has to say defending his police department when we've seen mayors all across the country try to cover for their PD despite their obvious abuses: Garcetti in LA, Johnson in Dallas, Durkin in Seattle.

It's a completely appropriate satirical response to someone who finds what happened in Buffalo acceptable, and then accuses me of "hating all cops", yes.

LOL you actually believe that a frail 75 year old man is the graffiti king of Buffalo and defend cops blatantly shoving him down and putting him in the hospital. What do you gain by defending the cops in this situation, a gold star? Do you think the next time they mistake your house in a no-knock raid they're gonna see your posts and not shoot your dog? Pathetic dude.

You didn't prove anything by posting some dumb flash card with words on it that fit your agenda. Putting it in jpg form does not magically make an argument any more succinct or powerful, it just whittles down a nuanced issue into a black and white kindergarten level of conversation. You went to college, maybe act like you had to write a paper or two while you were there.

Here's the Buffalo PD all lined up outside the courtroom to applaud the elder abusers. Ya know those "few bad apples"

DeBlasio sucks, what's that got to do with abusive police?

It's because cops are too busy abusing peaceful protesters. Maybe they should spend more time on the looters and rioters if it's such a widespread problem. Nice little political meme though, the flash cards for boomers who never developed critical thinking skills.

Somebody watched his Tucker last night, good boy!

Your downvotes only give me more resolve that my posts are entirely justified, because here's what you're downvoting in case you didn't bother reading the story: 1) 2 cops shove a 75 year old man at a protest in Buffalo and he ends up in the hospital with a concussion. He approached them with one of their helmets, looks like he was trying to give it back to them, but whatever the case he was clearly harmless. Watch the video for yourself. 2) The two officers who pushed him over and put him in the hospital are then suspended for their actions, all the while the official police report is that he "tripped and fell over". 3) The entire emergency response team that these two elder abusers belong to quit the team in solidarity over these two being suspended. So go ahead and plug your ears or delete 5 page threads because you want to ignore the police abuses in broad daylight, but it can happen to you just as easily as it can happen to a teen making trouble and running from a crime.

The trash takes out itself in this case.

Hey Rick, which one is peaceful here, the protesters or the guy with the chainsaw? https://twitter.com/TheHousePlug_/status/1268972107347701763?s=20

ooooo I wanna play!

This is just sad and pathetic dude, i don't know what else to say. There's been something like two-dozen women who have confirmed that he has done exactly that or something similar btw, but I guess as soon as they speak to whatever news outlet you don't approve of their stories suddenly become fake news.
