If it had been a successful insurrection, you mean.

Hyperventilating again, I see.

Is that the old "do what I say, not what I do" kind of advice?

If only that were true.

Sure you did.

Pot-kettle

Then explain why the Old Growth group is able to demonstrate over and over by blocking traffic during rush hour? If Gov wanted to put down political protests, there are plenty of opportunities. The convoy was engaging in significant disruption, beyond a couple of hours of traffic blocking; that's why authorities took action.

Don't speak for me; you've no idea what I think. For instance, I think being in jail for months is overkill for his charge. But I prefer accuracy and honesty - hysterical hyperbole that he was imprisoned because he's a political opponent is neither accurate nor honest. If you really believed that this government will jail people for their political views, you wouldn't be on here hyperventilating and calling Trudeau "PM Blackface."

He wasn't imprisoned over politics; he was imprisoned for inciting to commit mischief.

Aww, no real answer.

The only reason experts are able to calculate how many died from Covid is because those deaths were above the norm. Six millions more died than would have without Covid. What's so hard for you to understand about that?

So you think all viruses are the same. What a ... novel ... view.

Maybe if you treated kids with the respect they deserve, rather than hiding behind a wall of "everything is fine", they'd be better prepared to face real life. Unlike those who pretend killer viruses are nothing and climate change isn't real.

Pretty sure that kids will quickly learn to get close and not wear masks as time goes on. Even I notice that fewer people are wearing masks now than they were when restrictions were first lifted. If you are concerned about kids living in fear, try doing something about climate change. This concern kids a lot more than masks and social distancing. And burying your head in the sand while encouraging kids to so the same isn't "help". https://childmind.org/article/kids-and-climate-anxiety/

No, the flu and coronavirus are different. Just like colds and flu are different

You are actually claiming that the six million who died as a result of Covid would have died anyway?

Two out of dozens demonstrates the efficacy of the vaccines. Prior to vaccines, of the half dozen I knew who got Covid, one died and one was hospitalized and ended up with long Covid - was off work for almost a year and is now on graduated return. Both were under 50, neither was overweight. I've no idea if they had other risk factors.

I don't even know dozens of people, so good on you for such a wide circle if friends and acquaintances. I do know a few who've gotten Covid, even being vaccinated. But they didn't end up in hospital and they didn't die, which is the primary protection the vaccination offers.

I'm of the opinion that both sides have radicals that break the law in the pursuit of imposing their ideology. Still, various law enforcement agencies currently hold the right as the more serious threat. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2021/domestic-terrorism-data/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/interactive/2021/domestic-terrorism-data/ Also, keep in mind that it's not the left whose radicals are busily creating para-military groups in case they need to overthrow the government. Despite the above, I'm still of the opinion that right wing radicals are the minority, and do not define the whole.

Same could be said of the radical right/right. The radicals hardly define the entire ideology, right or left.

Interesting, thank you.

I couldn't find this story, do you have a link? Thanks.

I'm disappointed. Did you serve our country, or only conservatives?

So what are you saying? Ten people aren't dead? Or the ten dead people don't matter?

Me too.
