  1. I mean, I wouldn't write an article using his opinion as the source of information or anything like that...
  2. you're right. I mean, hardly anybody's gotten sick, and basically nobody's died at all.
  3. absolutely brutal crimes. there are murders and then there are MURDERS, and this is one of those bad ones. He never should be let out. There's a big difference between someone who gets in a fight and makes a bad decision in the heat of the moment and someone who robs a person and then shoots them in the back of the head.
  4. 1% of America's population is 3.3 million people. If we could reduce that number by 90%, I'd say that's pretty good "math".
  5. I feel the same way. But what a lot of people are ignoring is that there are anti-vaxxers out there becoming relevant and making a lot of money by using their platform to pander to the political beliefs of those who are against the vaccine... and i don't trust them either.
  6. No. I’m happy to read the cliff notes if you’ll provide them. I know he got fired for spreading misinformation about COVID, and Baylor Scott & White Health had to take out a restraining order against him because he lied for months about his credentials and claimed to still work for them. The problem I have is you have an overwhelming majority of healthcare professionals, virologists, epidemiologists, doctors, etc. saying one thing. But one doctor with a platform says what a big group of people wants to hear, and all of a sudden he’s the expert and knows more than everyone else in the world. He’s not even a lung doctor. Kinda like the local gynecologist who was making videos on YouTube for awhile about the evils of the vaccine, and people were eating it up. Of course, I know for a fact he’s vaccinated now, and he deleted all the videos, but whatever.
  7. I don’t think people who choose not to get vaccinated are sheep. I think people that read obviously false articles and believe every word are sheep. Especially when they blindly follow along without doing any type of research.
  8. Reports are regularly coming out across the country showing 90% or more of hospitalizations and 95% or more of deaths occurring in the unvaccinated. I guess they’re all in on the giant conspiracy theory.
  9. [Hidden Content] the article says 4 people nationally have died from this rare condition due to the vaccine. 705,000 have died from COVID. It’s also caused my many other factors, including other vaccines, bacterial infections, birth control, and autoimmune diseases.
  10. Yup. But 2% is a whole lot of people. If 2% of people die on average, and 95% of those dying now are unvaccinated, I’d say the vaccine is pretty dang effective. If you know 1000 people of them and 20 of them died, wouldn’t you say that’s a lot of folks you know dying from a particular illness?
  11. Pretty soon your statement will get picked up by one of these fake right wing sites, then another rightwing propaganda site will use it as a source and make an article, and then another will use THAT article as a source and make an article, and then someone will read it somewhere and post a link to it in this thread as proof that the vaccine doesn't work.
  12. From the actual real-life study that the the fake news article that Reagan's fake news article quoted as a source to come up with the fake headline insinuating that the vaccine is ineffective: "2 doses of the vaccine remain highly effective, with 60 to 85% effectiveness against infection, 90 to 99% effectiveness against hospitalisation, 90 to 95% against mortality and 65 to 99% against symptomatic disease." Just for what it's worth.
  13. Here's you a quote from a different source: Of the 22,215 passenger vehicle occupants killed in 2019, 47% were not wearing seat belts. Reagan's take: seatbelts don't work and nobody should wear them, because sometimes people wearing seatbelts die in car crashes.
  14. You caught the main gist of the article that anti-vaxxers gloss over. That's what makes it so ridiculous. They'll take a study that clearly shows evidence that the vaccine is helping, but post a headline that is designed to portray the vaccine as ineffective. And then the sheep swallow it and regurgitate it like cud.
  15. Common sense would lead most people to believe that natural antibodies would be better than artificial antibodies. If you don't die. That said, artificial antibodies are outperforming no antibodies by about 10 to 1 when it comes to serious infection rate.
  16. What's funny is you get these guys who read these garbage propaganda machines, and they believe it all. To the point where they're not embarrassed to post it on public forums. But if you ever click the links these nonsense sites use as sources, it always just sends you to a different rightwing fake news site as the source. So Reagan could write a fake article saying whatever lie he's passing off as vaccine news, and then thebumblingconservative.com or whatever other fake news site picks up his article, links it, and writes their own new headline. And all of a sudden you have "news" that agrees with whatever stupid position they're pushing. I followed his link to a nonsense news site, and then clicked their "source" link. That sent me to another fake news site. Then that site finally sent me to the study where they got this "information." And literally one of the first things I found in the study was this: "2 doses of the vaccine remain highly effective, with 60 to 85% effectiveness against infection, 90 to 99% effectiveness against hospitalisation, 90 to 95% against mortality and 65 to 99% against symptomatic disease." That's literally proof that the vaccine is extremely effective, and doing an incredible job of slowing the spread of the coronavirus and preventing serious illness in those who contract it. What kind of fool could look at a study with the outcome quoted above and come to the conclusion that the biggest takeaway from the study is that "the majority of deaths from the delta variant are in the fully vaccinated." but these moronic websites take a study that comes to that conclusion and finds a way to spin it as anti-vaccine propaganda. And the rightwing sheep read it and drink the koolaid. As I've said many times before, I'm pro-choice when it comes to the vaccine, but it takes a really pathetic person to devote their time to trying to convince people to put their health at risk for political reasons by spreading misinformation and downright lies. The numbers are OVERWHELMINGLY clear that the vaccine is extremely effective at reducing infection rate, reducing contagion rate, reducing hospitalizations, and reducing deaths. There's literally no argument to be made that disputes that. If you want to avoid the vaccine for your own political beliefs, or based on worries about side-effects, then do it. Good for you. Get the shot or don't, but don't lie to people for your own political reasons.

  18. I’ve got no issue with it. An innocent person protecting other innocent people from violent criminals is what it sounds like to me.
  19. Well, looks like HJ got one late to ruin my prediction.
  20. They didn’t look great. That said, Melissa had two INTs inside the 5 and stopped a 4th and goal from the 3, all in the second half. Could’ve been a different game for sure
  21. Final, 21-0. argyle’s first loss in 20 games. their first regular season loss in 60 games. Their first district loss since 2008 (61 games). Their first shutout loss since 2006.
  22. Argyle gets the ball back with 1:53 remaining, still down 21-0
  23. Melissa holds argyle on 4th and goal. Still up 21-0 with 5:00 left
  24. Melissa driving, start of the 4th, still up 21-0 over argyle
