So Menards (and Home Depot) both were early adopters of the “Mask Mandate”…here where I live in Indiana, months before the state-wide requirements for masks came into effect,,..

But they don’t disinfect ANYTHING.

Not carts, not credit card machines, nothing.

The Virus is transmitted via touch and via airborne at a similar rate…

Yet  again, we have the requirement for masks, but nothing else. Much like in a restaurant, or a bar, where one is dangerous when walking to and from the table (or the bathroom) but not when eating or drinking…..

The local grocery stores, all of them, including Wal-Mart, DO at least make the attempt to sanitize the carts and other common touch surfaces. 

Much like the TSA, it is all Theater. 

 While there is a great deal of evidence that there was voter fraud that took place in Pennsylvania, Michigan, possibly Wisconsin and Georgia, (lots of INDIRECT evidence)  I have not seen any DIRECT evidence. 

I have no doubt that the lots of “found” ballots ( those tranches of ballots that that came in well after the deadline and oddly, in strange ways) that were overwhelmingly for Biden (to the point of statistical impossibility) were manufactured and illegal votes. Similarly the “late” votes and the ones with illegible (or no) postmarks that were allowed contrary to election law that were also, oddly overwhelmingly statistically unlikely for Biden that should not have been counted…Not to mention the mail-in ballots that had either missing  or non matching signatures that also were allowed…and again, were overwhelmingly for Mr. Biden.  

Having said that, despite the words of Donald the Trump and his henchman Giuliani stating otherwise, I have not seen (at least so far) any court cases nor evidence that would force a recount. It is getting a bit late if they truly have the evidence they claim that they can take to the courts. If they got some, it is time to ante up. We have heard a lot of words, but seen no action. 

If they don’t do so soon, then I feel that the election is lost. 

 If (and it is an “IF”) masks in public really work effectively to prevent the spread of Covid-19 Coronavirus…

And since in nearly every state, there has been rigorous enforcement of mask wearing inside buildings and such….even if that compliance is gained by FORCING the businesses to comply (Except, of course while eating or drinking…because for some reason breathing while eating in a restaurant doesn’t spread Corona….nor does breathing while drinking at a bar…? But walking in and out or gto the restroom does…..?)

Then why do we have this sudden spike in cases (but, oddly, not an equivalent surge in hospitalizations nor deaths) if masks really are effective? 

I mean, really, does anyone believe ANYTHING the so-called “authorities” are telling us? 

I certainly don’t. 

ETA: Have you been getting the stats on your local news? We get them here for three states (used to be only two until Wisconsin got high enough that they could use those numbers to gin-up fear) Anyway, if you look at the raw data that the TV folks present, it looks like a 0.03% death rate….pretty much what it has been since we started our “2 weeks to “flatten the curve”” ….8 months ago… And they give this data them tell us that they had a record number of tests performed…but then exclaim that the “Number of cases is rising!!!).  And apparently people buy it…

This tells much about the ability of our populace to either look at statistics and interpret the data and/or the state of our education system that supposedly taught them to count….much less critical thinking skills…

 Or is the Media hyping a line of bullshit?

I mean, first we had the incredible overreaction by the States healthcare system back in February, March and April….Things like the Javits Center in NY and McCormack place in Chicago…huge mobilizations that ended up caring for tens of patients. Tens.

We heard stories of health care workers being put in danger because there were incredible shortages of PPE and trained personnel (But, Heroes that they were, they soldiered on…..making Tik-Tok videos, of course)

Now, 7 months later, we are hearing the same stories…Hospitals are about to become overwhelmed, and there are, again, Dangerously low levels of PPE for those heroic health care workers….

Look: It isn’t like this “surge” in cases is a surprise. At least not to anyone with more than 3 synapses that are firing. 

And the “shortage” of PPE? You’d think that these folks who run the hospitals could foresee and stock for a continued need for PPE…if nothing else they should have learned from the debacle 7 or 8 months earlier and planned ahead

Oddly, there has been no shortage of Hospital type masks available in the retail market…nor gloves. But the hospitals can’t find enough to stock accordingly?

So, either someone is incompetent, at many levels, or the Media is lying. 

Sadly, either is possible. 

 For some reason, I cannot “save” additions to my bloglist……nor can I edit it to remove other blogs from the bloglist. 

Since Blogger has screwed up other things, I am not sure if I am doing something incorrectly or if it is just another thing that Blogger has FUBARRED.

Anyone else having issues editing bloglists? 

 Seems that Florida Governor DeSantis has put forth a bill allowing people that own businesses and homes to shoot rioters and looters once they enter the property illegally. 

I figure that this would definitely out a dent into the amount of looting and burning the next time there is a “Mostly Peaceful” protest. 

My Grandfather used to say that if the rabbits or deer were ravaging the garden, if you shot one and left the carcass lay, the others would find another place to go for food. I’m not sure rabbits or deer are smart enough to recognize the danger, but human looters probably are. 

YMMV

I gotta ask you all….We KNOW (despite denials from the Left Leaning folks, even those that are as intelligent as we are or anyone with two synapses to rub together, for that matter and know they are lying and that we know they are lying as well) that there was some level of left-leaning Anti Trump voter fraud. How much, I am not sure. Enough to throw the election? Maybe. Again, not knowing the levels of true fraud I simply cannot say. 

But here is the thing:

What are we gonna do about it? Are we gonna arm up and shoot someone? Who might that be? What is your target?  What are we gonna do? How are we gonna fix this? Is it worth a civil war? 

 I, personally, believe that anyone who commits (or allows to be committed) voter fraud should be treated as a traitor to the country, and should be tried in a fair trial and hung by the neck immediately after (assuming a guilty verdict) the trial. But how many people we gonna string up? How much do you have the stomach for? How much blood are YOU, personally, willing to spill to restore our Republic? 

Think about it. What, exactly, are you willing to countenance? 

How many people are you gonna jail, or hang? How much “Revolution” are you willing to do? How far are you willing to tear apart this country? 

How much “Resistance”? 

 Today is Veterans Day.

Say “Thank You” to all the vets you know.

I will.

Thanks to each and every one of you for your service, peace or war.

 The “News” keeps using words like “Baseless” and “Unfounded” and “Incorrect” when discussing the issues Trump is claiming regarding the election.

This is as blatant as their claim that Biden is the “President-Elect”.

They have no evidence one way or another as to whether the elections were fraudulent or not (although there are enough “irregularities” that if they were fair they’d be interested in an investigation) 

The veneer of impartiality is only molecules thick now. 

 I find it odd that Pfizer announce a vaccine (“90% Effective!” ) shortly AFTER the election. 

Interesting timing, that.

Draw your own conclusions.
