Looking forward to video of people trying to Naruto run over water.

Runny nose, sneezing, mild cough, scratchy throat, headache, fatigue, body aches...y'all keep calling it Omicron. I've always just called it working outside in the Winter. I can't remember the last time I spent a Winter without those symptoms. How am I supposed to know if I even get it?

@eliasshedd He has already flip-flopped on that, like he does everything else. I've got some news for you: The guy who said kids could get AIDS from touching cereal boxes does not have the final say on how diseases spread. I don't really care what Fauci says, one way or another. I watch the data and see what it says. So far, the data is very promising. By the way, the data doesn't only say that Omicron is milder. It also says that being vaccinated only provides about 35% protection from catching Omicron and being boosted only brings you up to about 75%. The data says that the relatively few who are dying with Omicron have serious comorbidities and/or are elderly...regardless of vaccination status. So, Fauci can sing and dance to whichever tune he chooses on a given day. The data is the data.

Double jab gives you a "whopping" 35% protection level from getting Omicron. The booster takes you up to about 75% (still much lower than necessary to prevent infection at this rate of spread). We're all going to get this one. That's okay. I spend the whole Winter with a runny nose, mild cough, sneezing, fatigue, and headaches. I'm not sure I'll even notice.

Yes, and all of that money is going to go to real gun shops. Real gun shops that donate to the NRA and other gun rights groups. By forcing their customers to go elsewhere for ammo, they're ensuring we have more support in the fight against gun restrictions. The fact that gun control advocates are praising this is hilarious!

@hieithegreat Read my comment again. Do so carefully. Try to comprehend what you're reading before you respond. Let me know when you've realized your glaring mistake. If you can't find it, you're not worth talking to because you're incapable of rational thought.

@galupproperties3098 I work outdoors most of the year, doing construction. The runny nose, scratchy throat, cough, and sneezing are from the cold, wet air. Everything else is from the work. It's completely normal.
2
@galupproperties3098 That was a wild 180. I mentioned that I have these symptoms a lot. You asked if that was normal. I explained that it was. Then, you come at me with the death of your father. I'm truly sorry for your loss, as my own father has COPD and likely won't survive any variant. However, I fail to see how that has to do with my statements about my own symptoms.

Please do. Shop at your local gun shop. Support small businesses that support (financially) the fight against gun restrictions. Walmart has actually helped us without realizing it!

Look at that perfect example of why people don't want "universal healthcare" in the US. See, people like you exist at all levels. You're the type who would push to take such decisions out of the hands of medical professionals and give them to some board of bureaucrats. "Healthcare is a human right!" Sure it is. That's why people want to give the government the power to deny people that "right."

@Andy Null It's short-sighted to not want bureaucrats deciding who does and does not get medical treatment? Sure, okay. I can live with being mislabeled on those grounds.

It's almost as though...a well armed civilian force, being necessary to defend a free nation, the right of civilians to own and carry firearms, should not be restricted. Or, you know, something like that...

@ZKFossil Pretty sure my chakra needs glasses. It won't focus worth a damn.

douglas steele So you're saying gay men aren't men? Wow, that's pretty homophobic of you.

@galupproperties3098 Fair enough.

@ghostface8468 Fully aware. Not sure why you felt the need to add that. It really has nothing to do with what I said.

@ghostface8468 Not excited. Just curious.

Load your own. It's dirt cheap and you can tailor your rounds to your specific firearm.

@timogul I assume you're already there, then. I mean, it would be hypocritical to call someone a coward from the comfort of your own home and I'm sure you're not a hypocrite...

@timogul I would say anyone claiming that I said I own a gun and/or that I said I need one to defend from tyranny has a serious reading comprehension problem. P.S. Comprehension means to understand, just in case that one went over your head as much as my initial comment obviously did.

@timogul A) My point is that relying on the idea that others will protect you is naive. That the ability for people to take up arms in defense of themselves and their home is fundamental to the very right to live. B) I'm fully aware of the second amendment of the Constitution. The "well regulated" portion refers to the militia - not the gun ownership - and in the common definition of the time, meant properly functioning, not heavily restricted. C) That Constitution you referred to was written by those who never wanted the government to have a standing army. The fact that the US military is the largest in the world goes against the founding principles of the Country. The people were only ever to be called to service during a time of war. Perhaps that's why the government has made sure to stick its nose in every conflict they could find; to keep people from thinking about that fact too hard. I mean, if the US is surrounded by enemies, it becomes unreasonable to tell the government to disband their military until the next war. D) US civilian gun ownership is not the detriment. US socioeconomic strife is the number one cause of gun violence (drug/gang/poverty related crime). Depression is the next in line (suicide). Significantly reducing just those two factors would leave the US with roughly 600,000,000 civilian guns and a violent crime rate similar to Canada, the UK, Australia, etc. Unfortunately, those in control of the most populous cities (those with the highest poverty, depression, drug abuse, and gang presence) seem to be bent on keeping things exactly the way they are. I guess it's easier to write more gun laws, than it is to better the lives of those who are suffering to the point of feeling the need to turn to violence...
