It was a stab in the back of the community because I am sure that the synagogue board had the same discussion (argument) as every other synagogue in the country does when we receive the email we all get annually (at the very least), advising us to have security, and when possible, armed security. Some listen, some don't. The board votes and decides. It is a democratic process but I doubt the President was aware of it when he made the comment. And either way, he is correct. Armed guards, when properly trained, are always the better option! Not agreeing to meet with the President in this instance was inappropriate. We say the "Prayer for the Government", which is in our prayerbooks, every shabbat (and pray for the President, regardless who he is or if we like him). I am very surprised the Rabbi was not able to convince him to overlook his personal feelings for the greater good.

@TheJeweledBird You were correct until you started repeated CNN/Biden rhetoric. Just as we did not lose as many lives as projected, there is no way that we can know that 36,000 live could have been saved. Also, CA--the 5th largest economy in the world--is a much larger state than New York, where I grew up, in a city with 8 million. But I grew up in an apartment. I now live in LA, right near the riots and looting, but in a house with space around me. You cannot compare the two. Just as you can't compare what Trump was advised by Fauci on Birx on one day, to whatever they told him two weeks later that made him take action. But when he said I am closing the borders, I immediately got on the phone, spent 5 hrs on hold,, and brought my son home from his gap year.. Before everyone else, so there were no lines or waiting at his first POE in the US. But 48 hrs later it was a mess. Things don't happen overnight. The country needs time to organize. And Trump acted early. Despite what the news was saying at the time. Go back and re-watch it instead of just repeating what the news is telling you. Better yet, get your own fair and balanced news and change the channel half the time.

Trump aside, people hate wearing masks. Yes, some use politics as an excuse, and we fight with them all the time. Surgeons who wears masks practically all day long, and even enforce the current law in our state, still refuse to wear a mask during their off time, when they (still) host BBQ's, etc. They couldn't care less about what Trump says or does. They just think that they won't get it. Like all the other who think they are immune. No one is immune! But it is no different than the gun argument, or vaccines, or even abortion. People want the right to choose what they do in their private time, and their are enough of them to gather and spread Covid-19. Thus won't be over in November and even if Biden wins, you will see the same problems. You can't blame it on anyone in government.

@diamondamongrocks #1 I think you missed the comments before mine, to which I was responding to in jest.
HOWEVER, #2, having raised 4 kids who are already leaders, and of whom I am very proud... regardless if we agree, they know to respect authority, their elders, other people'sviews and opinions, and MOST OF ALL, whatever their view is, they should always comport themselves in a calm, collected and respectful manner. Screaming obscenities simply for air time, when half the viewers will see you as a lunatic, is NOT the way to get your point across. They learned it from me, they learned it from debate class, and they learned it from watching people like the woman in this video. Make it about what you have to say, not about you and how you say it!

@wolfjarlgrbane5771 Wow! That was quick--thank you! I accept your apology, thank you again! It actually bothered me as I am not used to randomly being called names, especially when I was just suggesting that if one is interested in the 1918 pandemic, it is a fascinating documentary and worth watching, that is all. The news did not cover it accurately at all (Fake News, lol!), which means people will run around misquoting what actually happened (as a historian, it irritates me). And my apologies as well--they were merely in reaction to your words. I also have teens (4), and they are constantly on Tik Tok. I told them they all had to be "private". But I do hear some horror stories from them about their friends and what goes on. Chona aside, the general stupidity of it aside, I don't think it is the healthiest app. And we are all too wrapped up right now to monitor and deal. At least they can't leave the house, lol! Best of luck!
