  1. Quick summary of this conversation: I speculate boosters may become mandatory, you come off the top rope mocking me, but now acknowledge boosters may be mandatory and you’ve forgotten that only 3 weeks ago it was a conspiracy theory. You think I’m a “southwest first officer” (which I assume is bad?), I think you're incapable of critical thought; conversation and compromise is impossible. That’s this whole COVID event in a microcosm. Wish I had an idea of how to move forward productively, but I don’t. From my viewpoint we have to: 1. cease mandates. “Emerging data to refine hypothesis” is fine, except this experiment involves human beings. How about we cease mandates until certain we aren’t making it worse? 2. hold responsible those who lied and abused their power, starting with Fauci and Cuomo and big tech oligarchs who crushed the free speech of doctors trying to help during a pandemic. 3. conduct an origin investigation on par with the 9/11 commission. That’s how we START healing. From his perspective I don’t know, but I’m guessing we get boosters every 6 months, ask no questions, and mock those who do. Our nation has irreconcilable differences and I fear for the future.

  2. We must protect the protected from the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to protect themselves with protection that doesn't protect the protected in the first place. It's got what plants crave.

  4. Concur Buy 150 LAAR. 50 for ACC, AFSOC and ANG (station at ANG MQ-9 Reaper bases). Use as an accumulator to absorb production pipeline from SUPT and keep warm till B courses open up for ACC, AFSOC establishes its own program, ANG gets the FTU and distributes as capable with MQ-9 wings, not a dual qual program but a component of the Attack Wing(s). Stateside mission is to train often with the JTAC / TACP / SOF community and keep the AF still primed for the LIC, COIN, Grey Zone fights we will get sucked into like it or not. File that under shit that ain't gonna happen but whatever, it's BO . net Look at the size of the beast, Calidus B-350

  5. If someone is so dangerous that society can’t risk them obtaining a firearm, then that person should be put in prison/secure hospital via due process. Gun control laws work about as well as drug laws…not very well.

  6. Lately there seem to be more and more stories of felons nabbed with a gun that should be doing time, but instead are victimizing the public. It is a shame we can't have Project Exile 2.0--for those who don't know, in the 90s the US Attorney's office teamed up with local officials in Richmond VA. Long story made short, if you were a criminal in possession of a gun, it was pretty much assured you were getting at least 5 years in a federal pen. https://ojjdp.ojp.gov/sites/g/files/xyckuh176/files/pubs/gun_violence/profile38.html You can google for the answers of why the return of such a hard-nosed policy is highly unlikely.

  7. What's the proportion of vaccinated vs unvaccinated people in the population? This data is useless without knowing what the vaccination rate is.

  9. What victims? You can’t be a victim if you threaten to kill someone and then chase them, if you swing a skateboard at their head, or if you point a loaded weapon directly at their face.

  10. Here’s the thing for me. They aren’t even trying to hide the lies anymore. Not at all. The examples are piling up. Kavanaugh, Russian collusion, all the COVID hypocrisy, Jussie Smollet, NASCAR nooses, Covington kids, hands up don’t shoot, etc. This one is one of the most egregious though. Starting with Jacob Blake, the riots and ending with Rittenhouse. I can’t understand, I mean I literally can’t understand, how or why any average American is falling for this stuff regardless of political leaning. It’s simple truth and facts vs blatantly obvious lies. And they double down on it over and over again This is how we got Trump, Jan 6th, the recent Virginia election results and what will be complete destruction of Democrat power in 2022. The pendulum is going to swing hard right in 2022. As it should. The left has hopefully had their moment and hopefully we survive it.

  12. So you cited something that says scientists use emerging data to refine hypotheses? As in, scientists follow the scientific method? Cool, we're in agreement. Calling someone a sheep - tell me you're a Southwest first officer, without telling me you're a Southwest first officer. Question: do you wait for the CA to go on break before you "Let's go Brandon" on guard, or just do it at the gate? 😂
