    As I understand it, even the majority of Qanon members think this little group is nuts. There will always be crazies, no matter what we do. Fringe fanatics pop up from both sides. It's really nothing to worry about as long as their numbers are small. Its only when a fanatical group is large in numbers that they can do any real damage. Like....... the 81 million of them (the true number may be smaller) that voted for a senile old fool named Joe Biden,.....

    @lufins-dad said in Post-Booster Breakthrough Cases: Which stats is he using? The stats reported by the CDC that only show breakthrough hospitalizations? Not stats, just a simple math model.

    As the name suggests, emergency temporary standards “are an ‘unusual response’ to ‘exceptional circumstances.’” Thus, courts have uniformly observed that OSHA’s authority to establish emergency temporary standards under § 655(c) “is an ‘extraordinary power’ that is to be ‘delicately exercised’ in only certain ‘limited situations.’” But the Mandate at issue here … is a one-size fits-all sledgehammer that makes hardly any attempt to account for differences in workplaces (and workers) that have more than a little bearing on workers’ varying degrees of susceptibility to the supposedly “grave danger” the Mandate purports to address.

    It doesn't always, but governments have an insatiable lust for power, which many times relies on all types of weapons.

    “In the course of the fight, the suspect took out a pistol firing rubber bullets and fired several shots at his opponent,” it said, adding that one man was detained and the victim was taken to hospital. I wonder if he would will such a reaction to become a universal law.

    @doctor-phibes said in Wake up, Brandon!: Old men who fail in their job send young men to pay the price of their failure. It depends on the circumstances. On September 16, 1940, the United States instituted the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940, which required all men between the ages of 21 and 45 to register for the draft. This was the first peacetime draft in United States' history. Those who were selected from the draft lottery were required to serve at least one year in the armed forces. Once the U.S. entered WWII, draft terms extended through the duration of the fighting. By the end of the war in 1945, 50 million men between eighteen and forty-five had registered for the draft and 10 million had been inducted in the military. https://www.nationalww2museum.org/students-teachers/student-resources/research-starters/draft-and-wwii
