Do you see any quotes around that line your asking about? No, when I quote rules I use quotes.

What it says is "Example: There are a lot of idiots in this world might be acceptable. You Mr. John Smith are an idiot, would not be acceptable and may be grounds for an instant and permanent ban. Please understand and respect our need to limit our liabilities, and to maintain a friendly atmosphere."

You have any further questions please direct it to a mod via PM per our rules.



Thank you for answering my question to You. I see the portion you omitted when you actually "Quoted the Rules". :wink:

Any further questions I have will be forwarded to the Owners.

Thanks. :icon_thumright:

I was explaining what violates the rules and what does not. A generalization is not an attack on a member, examples: archeologist are crooks, used car salesmen are crooks, lawyers are evil, politicians are narcissists[FONT=Roboto, Helvetica, sans-serif] are all generalizations and do not violate our rules[/FONT][FONT=Roboto, Helvetica, sans-serif].[/FONT]

Go ahead Ol'Kentuck and contact them all. They see the post reports anyway. I am sure when they look your name up they will also see a hundred times people have reported and complained about your posting.
They will wonder why we have let you derail every topic you post in. I often wonder myself.

The topic of this thread is "Are your wearing a mask yet?". Yes ,I wear one when I have to. Just came back from the store and stood in line with one on six feet away while the family in front of me with 6 kids had not a single one on.

There are a lot of idiots in this country and world.

I gotta disagree. It's not that people don't have the mental capacity for critical thinking, it is that the action of thinking critically has been essentially demonized by those claiming intellectual superiority. These same claiming intellectual superiority seem to always find jobs as "public servants", namely public school teachers. We have well educated idiots- the most dangerous type of all kinds of idiots.

"Cause the science says wear a mask"

Oh. What science?

"The data is clear"

You provided no data, measurement, or statistic.

"It's common sense, everybody knows!"

Hmm, I've just come to the reasonable and logical conclusion that you ain't everybody...

Nah, that's just the tip of the train wreck. Those that claim intellectual superiority always resort to claiming moral superiority.

Because if you don't do what their science says, then they say you are a bad person.

Like some dip-Schmitt I ran into the other day. This guy bragged that the dude next to him in the line in the supermarket wasn't wearing a mask and coughed, so he was feeling like punching him out in front of his family and everything. For coughing. Some other people actually seemed to applaud and reinforce his "feelings" by "liking" the post about it.

Freaking mob-mentality. I'm an American. We Americans are bound together by Freedom...

...not by fear.

It's rather sad how science has become political. I don't trust science anymore that's how bad it is in my view. It is easy to take data and skew it to get whatever outcome you want. The average Joe doesn't have a background in science so easy to manipulate. It bothers me even with Covid a doctor I've known a long time here in California is so upset with how they are handling the numbers and skewing the data he is considering putting his actual numbers out there knowing his job will be on the line. He actually handles the covid patients and testing here. At least in this area deaths and actual infected numbers are being blown way out of proportion.

Right now, Ontario's communications strategy seems to involve officials pleading with people to practise physical distancing and Ford chastising young people for holding what he calls "wild parties."
Deonandan is concerned there's too much finger-wagging and not enough compassion.
"We're fond of talking about the stick, scolding, deploying the law with criminal penalties," he said. "But we haven't talked about what is in it for people to behave appropriately and what's the incentive to follow the rules."
Ottawa's medical officer of health on Tuesday imposed a strict new order, requiring self-isolation for a wide range of people: anyone who either tests positive for COVID-19, is a close contact of someone who has tested positive; has symptoms of the illness, or is awaiting a test result. The consequence of breaching the order is a fine of up to $5,000 per day.

"We need to find better ways to communicate with people to understand the real risks of COVID, not only for their loved ones, but for themselves as well," said Dr. Andrew Boozary, executive director of health and social policy for Toronto's University Health Network.

Just use common sense-outside 6ft apart. Inside wear a bloody mask-big deal/so what if it takes away a little "freedom" get over it folks.
I treat everything like moist warm raw chicken when out in the world.
Just had a mask/respirator on for 3 days straight working on/in the chicken coop. Did I complain that it was taking away my freedom-no it was common sense to wear protection.
The faster "everyone" in the herd realize that it will take a teams effort to squash the numbers to the point of no return-the faster life will return to
normalcy.

What liberty have I given up to wear a mask?
Beyond the liberty of hacking phlegm on another citizen , I'm able to go about my life as ever.

Did I give up liberty after many years of going barefoot all summer to now have to wear shoes in a store? No.

A society has sanitation rules for the welfare of the whole , as well as the individual.
Balance is where it is an equal concern.

It's like this. If your friend brings his toddler to your house without a diaper or pants on, he's gonna pee all over me, the friend, the furniture and the floor. If you put a diaper or britches on them, they only pee on themselves. I'll wear my mask and not pee on you. Please wear a mask and not pee on me. Good luck.

How bout you just keep your kid out of my house?

I tell you what, I will carry a squirt gun. If you get within rage of me I will shoo you away by hosing you down. You will know it's me and you need to stay away when you see me in my hockey mask.

If a business I want to do business with wants me to wear a virus mask on their property, fine. But if you want to force me to wear a mask then I want to social distance. Steer a wide berth, I don't want masked strangers within a pistol shot of me.

I do not and will not wear a mask. I’m at no risk from the crap. The way I look at it is God made us to where we build our immunities. Can’t do that in a mask. Just my 2 cents
