    Tell that to every unarmed black person who got shot and killed at a traffic stop. How many posts, "well, if he just listened to the cop he'd be alive"

    You mean like Walter Scott, whose killer was charged with murder? Or do you mean more like Michael Brown, whose killer was investigated extensively, a grand jury was impaneled to indict him, he was forced to resign, the police chief resigned, the cop has never been able to be a cop again, and it turned out that the officer was punched multiple times and Brown tried to take his gun from him. Not to mention the riots and destruction caused by the lie of hands up don't shoot or the $1.5 million paid to Brown's family. Are those the type of incidents you are comparing it to, where Byrd was promoted and given a medal?

    Imagine how much worse it could have been if people weren't urged to gather. What "they" did was try to urge people to minimize the spread to save lives.

    More than 1.1 million people tested positive in the last week of November 2020 alone.

    There was a 102% increase compared to the number of patients hospitalized by the virus one month prior.

    There were 37,172 Covid-related deaths reported in the U.S. over the past month prior to Thanksgiving that year, with 25 states setting weekly death records.

    The U.S. averaged more than 1,200 Covid-19 deaths every day in November, which, according to CNN, equates to roughly 51 Americans killed by the virus every single hour.

    There are well over a million empty seats as families gather now for holidays now, and yet you come on here mocking those who tried to help prevent the spread 4 years later. What kind of decent person does that? Every time I take you off ignore I see another post from you that makes me want to put you back on ignore, because it's so heartless. Do you even have a heart or do all you care about is yourself and your money?

    Imagine how many of these deaths could have been avoided if Fauci had not funded Gain-of-Function "research" and if China had closed their borders going OUT instead of IN, and if China had not tried to cover up the whole thing.

    Your whole sappy post has absolutely nothing to do with the arbitrary, pointless, useless, evil, authoritarian, impactless measures ridiculed in that tweet, which were promoted by leftists and parroted by mindless drones such as yourself.

    People who are bitter only know how to spread bitterness and hate. Look who started the thread. No surprise.

    Not really, it just reminds folks what Thanksgiving is all about - which is helping Immigrants and those less fortunate.

    People need to remember what is important and get away from propaganda.

    Sorry if it makes some people uncomfortable because it shows their hypocrisy, oh wait, nope, not sorry at all.
