@brenda Thanks! I had never noticed that before. Think about the force involved...

It didn't work out.

@taiwan_girl said in "Cuff 'em!": @Doctor-Phibes said in "Cuff 'em!": Yes, it was over-reach, but refusing to give your identity to police is not the smartest move either. I agree, and that is the problem. Even in regular times, if you are an adult at a park with lots of kids, I think even then someone would ask you what you are doing there. Not giving identification is not the best answer. I understand people who say "that they do not have to, my rights say that I don't have to etc. etc" But, sometimes common sense is more important. I was stopped by a couple of jackasses outside Federal Center a couple of months ago. I was taking pictures, and they thought that since I was near a federal building (FEMA), that was illegal, and they had a right to confiscate my camera. (These were dweebs who worked there, not security.) Security guy shows up, tells me not to go anywhere, gets a LEO. Fine by me. I explain to the officer that I don't have to state my business, or give ID, or really anything at this point because I'm not breaking any laws. But I did show him everything I was taking pictures of and explained exactly what I was doing. I also showed him my ID without handing it to him. I didn't have to do any of that, but it did go a long way towards him getting bored with me. That was enough and he let me go. Also told the assholes who stopped me I was right.

I hope this is a wake up call to provide better infection control at these facilities for patients with such requirements. From the article, The dialysis industry has historically had a poor record when it comes to infection control so the current infectious climate is fraught with worry.

@taiwan_girl Perfect!

@Axtremus said in Something fishy.: You can see it now, some silly tree huggers start spouting the narrative of the pandemic being the Earth’s “immune response” to humans over polluting the environment. That bullshit's already well established in some places out there.

Seems to me he could write all that with or without Covid-19.

There are some people who think ahead. And some who think way ahead. And some who think even further ahead. They will consult and shove the stick at the right time.

Interestingly it was the Russian Flu that was deadliest most recently. What a difference a month makes.

@Jolly said in Update from the President.: Can we have tanks? Tanks of what? Hot air?

But of course most people who invoke the priceless life thing are not thinking too hard about what the phrase actually means, content in the virtue signal of saying it, or more charitably, content in the directionality of it. But it shuts down conversations to be sure. Which is another point of those who invoke that idea which is mutually exclusive with this allegedly obvious truth.

Great idea.

And possible damaging illegal uses outnumber benign uses about a million to one.

@Jolly Sr. was alright. Jr. is a first order nutter and always has been.

@George-K Thanks!!
