I'm tired of all the dumbasses and snowflakes. I think there's a bigger pandemic eating peoples brains.

Hopefully society will look back at this point in time and wonder what the hell was wrong with people. Hopefully.

I just found out yesterday that those deployed that have also gotten both shots are STILL going to be required to get tested and quarantine before returning home.

What is the point of getting the shot if you are still going to have to do the same shit as you would if you hadn’t gotten it?!?! F&$@ing bull shit!

If they get tested what's the point of the quarantine regardless of the vaccine? :icon_confused:

Did the U.S department of defense redundancy division come up with this plan?

That's bizarre. Hopefully somebody will sort that out.

My nieces husband... Before we go any further what the heck is that to me? My nephew in law?

Anyway, he was sitting here so I asked about the vaccine, quarantine, testing crap. He said he thinks they are worried about the "mutant" strains popping up around the world that the vaccine may not be effective against. They don't want soldiers bringing back a new virus. But that begs the question, what good is it to quarantine our soldiers coming home when civilians can just come and go from the same place anyway?

Thank you for that though since after his "useful" answer I am now forced to listen to him incoherently ramble about how the vaccine is a global pyramid scheme run by werewolves or something.

More and more Minimum Retirement Age retirement is looking better and better. The military and the government gets more retarded every year. 4 years and 8 months can’t come soon enough!

Have you considered going full on Corporal Klinger?

Amazon has some great deals on some very lovely sun dresses that I think would just be fabulous on you.

Because of the fact that there is zero evidence that the vaccine prevents one from getting or transmitting the virus, and is only intended to reduce symptoms. You guys jumped all over me for for presenting that fact, and then are confused and surprised when all the official actions are based on it. It's called Cognitive Dissonance.

We've been over this.

That 'fact' is not supported by any evidence at all (and in fact is in complete opposition to it).
The actual evidence shows a 90+ percent reduction in getting the virus, significantly reduced viral load, etc. Thanks for playing.

But thanks for repeating it. Your posts do bring a smile to my face some days.

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!
There was a gym here in NJ giving out free memberships to people who refuse to take the vaccine.

My question for this guy, beyond the obvious one about eating paint chips as a child, how does he plan to check that people have NOT been vaccinated?

I mean, in some alternate reality where I would for some unknown reason want to join a gym, in theory I could just walk into said gym in a MAGA hat, say "vaccines is the devil" and get a free membership. He has no way to tell I've actually been vaccinated and think he has the I.Q. of one of those wooden sticks you use to stir paint but just don't want to pay 39 dollars or whatever the hell gym memberships costs...
My question to him is...
Why isn’t he still rotting in jail, where he belongs, for that DUI/crash where he ran into and killed the 19 year old kid. If that guy was on fire, I wouldn’t piss on him to put it out.

He assumes that noone that went out of their way to get the vaccine would want to come to his gym anyway?

They wouldn't kick him out for that, we'd pay for a sex change like we did for Bradley Manning while he was in jail for espionage. Before Obama let him out.

No, he’s been running his mouth since the first day of Covid restrictions about how it’s unconstitutional to stop people from going to the gym, it’s a fake virus, working out will keep you from getting the virus, etc. He wants him 15 minutes of fame.

Not very fun private testing.

My uncle in law who lived by himself in Denver passed away 3 weeks ago. All his siblings went out to go out to get his body released from the hospital and to clear out his two bedroom apartment. My mother in laws brother from California decided to make a mini vacation out of it and brought the kids (like around 10yo) sister from Alabama flew out and brother/wife from Texas flew out, my inlaws + my brother in law drove from Omaha.

They were all careful, wore masks etc.

Entire California family - covid.
My mother in law - covid.
Sister from Alabama went into the hospital from covid/pneumonia (I think she is out now)
BIL who didn't go but dropped of my FIL's dog when they got back and talked for half an hour caught it.

BIL who went and texas couple have had covid in the last few months and didn't catch it. My FIL who is over 70 (oldest of the bunch) and diabetic and thus the only one of the bunch that was eligible for a shot (and only had his first shot until they day after they got back) not only didn't get it but lives with one that has it and is still so far unscathed. They have been back for two weeks tomorrow.

:dntknw:

My question to him is...
Why isn’t he still rotting in jail, where he belongs, for that DUI/crash where he ran into and killed the 19 year old kid. If that guy was on fire, I wouldn’t piss on him to put it out.
Is this a Kennedy or is there more to the story that us non-yokels don't know?
