Just a little janitor work:

"The deaths by COVID infection do not tell the entire story and I know of many cases [in general] where COVID was penned as the cause, but that person's health condition was conveniently missing from the reference. I do not know of ONE person who died SOLELY because of contracting COVID, which isn't to state those cases don't exist, but they are the outliers."

40% of people in the US are obese (20% in NYC). Strike them from the records.

"Government has limitations. Government should have limitations. The government should not infringe on your right to choose. If those fundamental tenets don't align with your belief system, you Sir, are in the wrong country...."

I was trying to think, what country has no covid restrictions? Anyone?
So some are pissed because we as a country don't agree with their lines?

Are they causing greater harm to that person than a vaccinated person? The vaccine neither prevents you from getting COVID, or spreading COVID to the best of my knowledge. If so, what is the greater harm they cause over a vaccinated person?

Here's my support:

https://covidquestions.ca/?utm_sourc...ent=question14

That's from the Canadian Medical Association....not the media, not a conspiracy theory group, etc. This is the association that governs all Canadian doctors. They say you can pass / spread / transmit COVID even while vaccinated.

It also says that if you come into contact with the virus (even though you are vaccinated) you can still contract it / get symptoms. But, it should do its job too and make your symptoms less such that you hopefully won't be hospitalized.

Which is all the vaccine was designed to do...help lessen the impact on the hospital system.

You're up.

And of course, the lesson from rebekahb is that we all have the choice (!) of whether to beat our heads against a wall... and some enjoy it.

Seriously? You don't see any contradiction in your two bolded statements? The first one where you say that everything I said about the vaccine was wrong WHICH I THEN SUPPORTED WITH SOURCES, and then your second bolded statement WHERE YOU THEN SAY I'M RIGHT, despite saying I'm wrong immediately before?

You don't see that? Or are you again just trying to obfuscate the facts in any situation where you are proven to be wrong or where the facts do not support the narrative you'd like to push?

Sedan_Clan - I gotta say, initially I was sort of thinking Littlebear responses were made purposefully out of malice or ill intent, but now...based on his most recent exchanges, I'm thinking Hanlon's razor adequately explains Littlebear's responses now.

I really need to find someone going to Cuba soon, I'm down to about 4 RP's in my humidor, which is fine since I don't plan on having any more cigars till next summer...but would be nice to fill it back up again by next summer with some cubans.

Oh man, that's some wild wild west stuff right there. I wonder what speed the motorcycle was travelling at when the unfortunate soul got tasered.
