This sounds like a conservative talking point rather than genuine concern for the safety of the marchers.

I am neither conservative, nor genuinely concerned for the safety of people making poor decisions…be they marchers or motorcycle enthusiasts.

I just want COVID to be contained rather than spread, and i see both of these events as poor decisions at this point in time.

Did you say pendant?

Well you may not consider yourself conservative but when you keep parroting Fox News talking points over and over its time to look in the mirror.

My school district thinks 50 kids on a bus ride in the community is a bad idea in terms of COVID spread. Are you saying that 50 people on a bus ride from Philly is not a bad idea in terms of COVID spread?

So you're emphasizing your own personal interests over racial equity.  Sounds conservative enough.

Do you believe your own trollish drivel?  What are the odds of this march bringing about racial equality?

And I'd prefer nobody be going on bus rides, be they students or marchers. It's too high risk and thus a danger in terms of COVID spread.

There have been dozens of examples of Space’s conservatism


He may be the perfect example of what MLK termed the white moderate man that while not a racist is what stands in the way of progress on civil rights.

Let’s not forget for months Space’s position on Covid that we were overreacting…the cure worse than the problem..throw the old people overboard so his kid could go to school….etc


This went on for MONTHS

Again, exactly the Fox News Republican party line…


Yet he remains sadly unaware continuing to argue he is neither this or that…perfectly reasonable in the middle

Andrew Cuomo's initial position was to send the sick people back to nursing homes. But that didn't quite work out, so his position evolved.

The virus evolves and more knowledge is gained, so of course people's thoughts evolve in reaction to events and knowledge.

Welcome to the dark side!

Yes but a person has credibility or not depending on their past positions. You don’t just say hey that was the past focus on the future!

Again, if you find yourself parroting Fox News you might want to look in the mirror and take a breather from expressing opinions on important issues. Be self aware! Realize just how wrong you are often and listen to others that haven’t repeatedly made your mistakes. It’s called learning..


I mean do we really need your advice on Covid given your track record?

I don't watch or read Fox News, so I don't think I'm parroting them.

My track record on COVID is that I've managed to avoid catching it while doing all kinds of outdoor activities over the past 4.5 months. I was an early adopter of wearing a mask, and I'm keenly aware of what activities are more risky than others. Or as aware as current knowledge is known.

I don't know that I'm giving anyone advice, but if i am you can feel free to take it or leave it.

this seems fair.

Supposedly the school has a “no posting pictures of minors online without their consent” rule. Basically this school system just gave them a killer college essay if they know how to spin the righteous indignity.

I don’t think that’s fair at all…I would kind of consider those photographs whistleblower evidence

Only 5 months too late, first attempt at contact tracking is rolling out in VA
Sounds a little big brother,  Trump’s commentary will actually matter and I’m concerned he will choose chaos over common sense

Didn’t realize only VA, but it has to start and it really isn’t that hard to do. 

The app is called: Covidwise
Sounds like could be a band name contender
Covidwyze

I installed it, I’m trusting the Guv to only use my data for good
