How about first you try to grasp the very concept that many who aren't fans of Trump also aren't democrats/leftists like bwar and I. You can rightly think Trump is a horrible president without also being some democrat/Biden fanboy, believe it or not.
Agree with this 100%.

But, can we take this discussion to a different thread pls?

Oh, and hey, good to see you SDF!  Congrats on your win over the Horns a couple weeks ago.

Clinton hijacked the party, but not this thread

it's about the virus
Clinton like Kennedy the old timers use to say "I don't care who Kennedy was screwing hewasn't screwing me (middle class)".I'd start in on Georgie JR but I can't get my hands around his or Dick Cheney's neck.

So that’s why the same people who continually regurgitate Trump hate on here NEVER say why they support the other side, besides Trump hate?

perhaps you may need to grasp the conversation better.

UTee-  I have a suggestion. Why don’t you issue a final warning. The next poster who brings up politics in this thread gets banned. Nothing would make me happier and I might actually be on the forum more often because this place stinks now with all this political bullshit.

I like the explanation of different versions of COVID coming out at different times.  I'm not sold on it, but it fits the data, I think, pretty well.

An extremely lethal virus like say ebola is self limiting because it kills off the host too fast.  You need one that is latent but contagious for a week or so to be effective at transmission.

We shouldn't have to issue warnings. Let's just stop. We have B1G football coming up.

The 2020 stream will be closed, and I will start a thread for election and policy discussion only. When the election is decided, that thread will also close. It will no longer be needed and we can get to normal again. Whatever the F that means, anyway.

Agree, there should be no need for warnings, or banning.  

Every single one of us knows what's "over the line."  My expectation is that everyone acts like an adult, and stops trying to push the buttons of others, where vehement disagreement is obvious and expected.  That type of behavior is childish and stupid.

Thank You For Your Support.

we thought about it

apparently that was getting tired

actually many more people are wearing masks today than back in March/April

the 4 folks that died a couple days ago were all 81 years of age or older

people are tired of this, they're going out and getting on with their lives

better to live and die than to stop living

Ehh. A banning feels a bit too much. I think a lot of us get sucked into it. It's hard to resist for some reason buried deep in our brains. 

I prefer a mass set of deletions of posts over any such thing. If it's near the line, gone. Once even the borderline stuff is gone, no responses, dies out quicker.

Washtenaw County issued a stay in place order at UofM  for undergrad students.  

The goal is to stop the spread on campus, which they view is being spread by social gatherings according to contract tracing.  

It does not apply to the football team.
