Dems are enslaved to the elderly - their lust for power cannot be sated, they never retire or step aside for younger talent.

Helms and Thurmond just rolled over in their graves.

Cory Booker is so phony that he makes your average full of crap politician come off as genuine and heartfelt.

Bingo.

This is the exact sentiment here in my part of the midwest. I hope it is more widespread.

It wasn’t his community. He went there to shoot people. And did.

LOL! Let me guess, you think the George Floyd, Jacob Blake incident was due to race, too?

For those interested; you can use a website like Ground News to see who is reporting on a certain story and how they report it. Taking the Gardner news as an example ...

When you look at the headlines and the coverage (simply by clicking the outlet logo in the top right of the page under "Coverage Analysis") it's amazing to see the spectrum of headlines and articles that come from the same event.

Huffington Post - "White Bar Owner Charged In Black Protester’s Death Dies By Suicide"
Unz Review (Never heard of them) - "White Bar Owner and Trump Supporter Commits Suicide After Black Ex-Federal Prosecutor Indicts Him For Shooting Looter"

And it would seem that BLM has deleted their mission statement. Some good news to start the week!

This has been incredible to go through. Some of the deaths with COVID, I would say COVID definitely sped it up/was the cause. Others? No.

If you are 89, and have all of this: Dementia, hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, chronic renal failure... you didn't die from COVID.

If you are 80, and have all of this: Chronic congestive heart failure, hypertension, asthma... you didn't die from COVID.

If you are 89, and have all of this: Hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, Parkinson's disease, diabetes mellitus, stroke, dementia... you didn't die from COVID.

All three has COVID listed as the main cause of death. About 15 of the 437 deaths, do not have any underlying conditions listed.

Guy at work has his yearly checkup last week, his doctor told him that he didn't believe that covid was as bad as being reported. That the numbers are not true. He's just a regular doctor, not some infectious disease doctor though.

Mine put it this way.

"Is it real? Absolutely. Should we be cautious if we are at risk? 100%. Should we open everything back up? 100%."

Seven schools in Kenosha decided they wouldn't be opening today, just hours before they were supposed to open.

Why aren't they opening up? Because too many teachers said they're weren't going to show up.

The parents at these schools / I can't imagine.

He is from Antioch, IL which is relatively smallish. Wouldn't doubt that his family was familiar with the Kenosha/Pleasant Prairie area of WI which is about 15 miles away since it is relatively built up and possible that he viewed it as 'his community'.

If 'community' extends to the city limits of where you live, then there are a bunch of people that shouldn't be there in the first place then because I'm sure there were a bunch of people there that just wanted to burn stuff down that weren't from the community.
