Coronavirus

So Trump Supreme Court nominees will contribute to the Covid 19 pandemy.
Excellent decision !

Why is it ok to go out and protest or riot or celebrate the outcome of the election? But everyone that goes to church is spreading the pandemic? Oh don’t worry, the state forces the churchgoers to wipe down the pews even though it makes no difference because this is respiratory illness but they still have to go through the motions. They shut down outdoor dining when the data says that outdoor dining is not a significant contributor to the spread. NY closed the schools when the contagious rate was <0.2%.

Why do they do this? It’s all to show that they’re doing something. BTW - this is the same way these same idiots will approach global warming...with virtue signaling and feel good measures that will make no significant impact on anything but your bank account.

What you Amy Comey Barrett haters clearly don't get is that the Supreme Court is simply giving houses of worship the same rights as a strip club, bar, or gym. Hate all you want, but for states to shut down houses of worship and let strip clubs, bars, and gyms remain open is wrong. The supreme court isn't adding to the Covid problem, quite the opposite. They are simply telling NY'ers to follow the same rules as everybody else. There's no reason for a church to be treated differently. Having your cock grinded on by a masked stripper is ok, but sitting 6 feet away from someone praying in a church pew is against the rules? What is wrong with everybody. But the haters and fear mongers are gonna hate and scare you. So the members not reading the article or understanding it will simply throw out the negative unfounded covid bullshit and not get the point.

Rep.-elect Lauren Boebert plans Thanksgiving 'funeral' for dead turkey in defiance of Colorado guidelines

Incoming Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, an anti-big government Republican who previously defied local shutdown orders, said she's finding a creative way to bypass Colorado's Thanksgiving gathering restrictions by having a "funeral" for a dead turkey.

I had to laugh. If big Gretchen knocked on my door I’d say we are getting together to celebrate racial justice, Rosa Parks, and Martin Luther King.

Huge respect to Justice Barrett, well done! It feels as though sane adults are finally in charge of the Supreme Court, even if by a small majority.

And then there is the other side to lockdowns and forever lost jobs.
Suicides, overdoses, spousal and child abuse.

The other lethal pandemic is worklessness

Removing government obstacles to hiring and work would bring better health and greater happiness to many Canadians. The benefit of work is essential.

Sorry but I do not agree with this. The whole fucking world is doing business on Zoom and Churches and Mosques and Temples can't? Strip clubs, bars and gyms can't do online. Houses of worship can. What you are saying is it is OK for a bunch of 70 plus year old technophobes to foist their lazy ass way of doing business down on the rest of the country. It's total bullshit and the vote was 5-4 (with Roberts, the one sane Justice, in the minority) only because Trump succeeded in stacking the Court. We need to have a few of the old technophobes who embrace 20th Century business methods die, so that new blood can be brought in, plain and simple.

I am sorry but God is OK with online services during Covid pandemic and if you say otherwise you are saying God is fucking STOOPID and are guilty of blasphemy 1st Degree.

I never heard of Zoom before March and now all of my business is on Zoom and you are telling me these neanderthals cannot adapt like I did? Sorry- neanderthals need to have happen to them just what happened the real neanderthals- EVOLUTION LEFT THEM BEHIND!

And even my GF who goes to a Pentecostal Church every Sunday agrees with me!!!! Because she understands technology and knows that God does too!

Have no issues with Amy B or any of the conservative judges Trumpy placed on bench. Never saw this as a political or religious issue, more of a public health one.

Beav,

This is probably my second favourite posting of 2020. Right behind Rose D telling you F’ers to wash your assholes.......

Absolutely! Kudos to Roberts, the last bastion of sanity. But why did he vote only 4 times? Didn't he realize that wasn't enough to win? Surely he could do 6 or better 12? Hopefully next time he does a better job than that.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Which one is Roberts again? Is he the chief? Isn’t he a conservative?

 

[Fradi]

God brought this plague on humankind to punish it because of the way it abused nature.

WTF god is Chinese.
Next we will hear so is Santa.

Couldn't agree with her more. With our modern technology, who the hell needs that musty old Constitution and the so-called Bill of Rights? All that crap was put together by a bunch of white slave owners, all male needless to say. Supremacy Clause, my foot. To the ash heap of history!

I think you misunderstood my post. He is the one sane Justice and has been a key vote in many recent decisions that went 5-4 the other way, all of which were correct, but he was in the minority, meaning he was one of 4 dissenters.

 

[EagerBeaver]

Yes, but he is also consistently right, both on the law and the result. When Bush nominated him not much was thought of him, other than that he was good at chirping the party line, but he has shown himself to be a distinguished legal scholar.

I think I understood your post very well indeed. I am pretty sure though that you misunderstood mine.

TNB was being sarcastic . He knows the seriousness of this virus as well as anyone.

I prefer it this way! @TNB I apologize.

Can't believe you are serious??? Trolling probably...

Ya! but he was not lobotomized as Gorsuch and Kavanaugh! my opinion on Barrett is not fixed yet. A few republicans still have ethic and decency.

Cannot receive the communion wafer online. People can work out at home, I do. People can drink at home, I do. What I'm saying is there is no reason why people shouldn't be able to go to church within the guidelines set forth by the CDC just like they can a bar, gym, or strip club. Everybody should be treated equally. Trump didn't stack anything, he simply appointed a justice just like it's been done many times before. But it's not about that, not at all. It's about people being treated equally. We all stay locked inside or we all are allowed to go outside, it's not for anyone to pick and choose who gets to do it. Especially if we all are subjected to the same rules set forth by the CDC. It's about time the Supreme Court got something right for a change.

I'm serious about my entire post, yes. trolling? please. Enlighten us with more of your quick responses with multiple question marks and periods...???

I wonder if anyone bothered to read the actual text of the Supreme Court's decision. I found the dissent penned by Chief Justice especially illuminating. The legal doctrine on which he is apparently basing his reasoning seems to be accessible to mere mortals, it reads: Kick The Can Down The Road! Why bother, Roberts writes, when Cuomo has agreed to redraw the zones, so those pesky Catholics and Jews should be happy already. Why do we need to do any work when who knows if he reinstates the restrictions or not. If he does, then come back again and we will find another reason to do nothing. Let's have beer and chips or perhaps pinot noir and brie, life is beautiful. (Not his exact words, rather my reading of them.)

In any other line of work, a person writing this document would likely be considered a lazy fuck, but hey, here, as we are reliably informed, we are in the presence of a distinguished legal scholar, so we must memorize it and from now on use it as a reference. Impressive beyond belief, no question.
