    Why do we keep giving people like Taylor Green attention? It’s clear she just wants to be outlandish. She’s speaking to her choir, and nothing is gonna change their stance

    Ignoring her won't make her go away... her base (republicans) will still see/hear her and nod their heads. But folks should know how truly extreme she is and hopefully those that don't agree with look for an alternative candidate.

    The collective IQ in her area of GA is about 14. This is the foothills of Appalachia. I spent a lot of time in the area when I worked in synthetic turf (Dalton, GA...where she's from...is the carpet capital of the world). They're pleased with her kind of stupidity.

    If Isreal registered a 7 day average of 100k new infections with a near 30% positivity rate (with a population of 9 mill)... does that mean it's possible up to 1/3 of their population were infected within a week?

    The NYK metro area registered 140k cases in one day at their peak, with a 34% positivity rate, does that mean around 4.5+ million people (out of 20+mill) were infected within a day or two?

    I'm not sure if multiplying cases by positivity rates checks out, but the high positivity rates means there's certainly a lot more infections not being documented, the speed of infection on this thing is mind-blowing, densely populated areas got gorilla ****ed by the speed of light

    Always LOL on the sources commodore relies on...

    [​IMG]

    CONSPIRACY-PSEUDOSCIENCE


    Sources in the Conspiracy-Pseudoscience category may publish unverifiable information that is not always supported by evidence. These sources may be untrustworthy for credible/verifiable information; therefore, fact-checking and further investigation is recommended on a per article basis when obtaining information from these sources. See all Conspiracy-Pseudoscience sources.


    • Overall, we rate Disclose TV a Tin Foil Hat conspiracy website that is low in factual reporting due to numerous failed fact checks and a lack of transparency.
    Bias Rating: CONSPIRACY-PSEUDOSCIENCE
    Factual Reporting: LOW
    Country: Germany (13/180 Press Freedom)
    Media Type: Website
    Traffic/Popularity: Medium Traffic
    MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITY

    Analysis / Bias
    In review, the users of Disclose TV publish news stories that are often conspiratorial and sometimes just fake. They also publish some legitimate articles as well. Disclose TV frequently publishes news about aliens and UFOs such as this: UFO sighing in the Philippines. They also promote stories regarding chemtrails, anti-vaccination propaganda as well as false flag conspiracies. In general, this is an over-the-top conspiracy and pseudoscience website.

    According to that letter there 3 reasons for the suspension.

    Bottom line is that it wasn't about one time but a continued lack of following the rules.

    Is it possible that a student who raped another student wasn't suspended because they were sent to juvie? They should have been. And certainly they shouldnt be allowed to return to that school which is different than suspension

    Do you understand how **** works in the Army?

    Sergeant: Soldier, Take That Hill!
    Soldier: Sarge, I am going to have to beg off on that ... due to some religion exemption.

    He was transferred to a neighboring high school where he raped another student.

    I'm not sure why he was allowed in the general population at a school. But it does explain why he wasn't suspended.

    Lol you clearly didn’t serve/don’t know anyone that serves. You give up your rights to enlist, the military is a highly disciplined conglomerate where following orders and commands is a must. People have gotten discharged over not getting other vaccines. Too often in history , plagued and Illnsesses end wars before humans do

    Clearly there must be "I've done my research" exception to the Army Rules, right?
