Our discussion of the use of "China Virus" still bugs me.

The piece linked below was written by a high school classmate and friend of mine. Maybe they aren't related. I think they are. You have to make your own decisions.

I understand @SFBadger96 . But, we still talk about the Spanish Flu, the Hong Kong Flu, etc.


Even CNN and MSNBC referred to this thing as the "Chinese Virus" early on, before they cancelled it and called it racist.

Still, I get it. I don't use that terminology much anymore, except when I'm pissed about it. And have not an ounce of Asian hate in my body. They are wonderful people who should be an example to us.

Regardless, back to Asian hate crimes.

Who commits them?

Had a golf lesson today. HUGE help in understanding why my body wasn't doing what I was telling it to...

It was on a Trackman, and I was hitting 7i with 90 mph clubhead speed, which is right around PGA tour average... So I've got that going for me... Which is nice. :72:
nice, I always say, "Swing Hard!"

Was a good afternoon on he course, took all 9 skins on the front (carry overs) with a tap in par on nine
then chipped in for birdie on 18 to shoot 39 on the back

Yep. Playing 18 in about an hour. So I have to forget everything I learned yesterday because it's too early to integrate into a full swing...

...and I don't want to be at a disadvantage in our high stakes ($1/hole) skins game!

Nice weather today, we'll hit a high of 70 and very bright and sunny.  I'm BBQing three racks of pork spares and I'll do some smoked sausage later.  Gotta get ready to watch Texas play in the tourney tonight.

This is where Georgia played Auburn in football in 1895 in front of 5,000 spectators, including folks on a train.  The tracks are not part of the Beltline around Atlanta.

Great post badge. I think it takes chutzpah to post those stats- which are no secret

so a lunatic goes off and kills a bunch of people. It hurts to continue to see it. We see it virtually EVERY weekend.

all, not some, but all of the evidence and facts point to the lunatic having a sex addiction. His words, his history, those who know him.

Because he is a white guy- the big lie comes out from the MSN, and others.  It’s a a hate crime.  It’s white supremacy.  The big lie.  Not a shred of evidence to support it.  Nothing. 

Not a word about the mass shootings In Illinois and Indiana recently, by black men. Not a word about the black men caught assaulting Asians recently.

So many now-thankfully-commenting on the media’s role in causing more racial tension and hate with their blatant dishonesty- to push their agenda.

I wonder if they understand their false cries are watering down the urgency for when it is real. People are now just rolling their eyes and saying “whatever.”   
Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
