Pretty much.

To be fair, she said her biggest concern is religious freedom. She cited Christians being persecuted in Iraq or something.

When I said I consider “pro-life” to also be pro-healthcare, pro-health precautions during a pandemic, pro-BLM, pro-immigration reform, and also anti-war and anti-gun, among other things, it was met with no real concern, cuz life begins at conception, and who cares about 200,000+ preventable deaths and cops killing people of color and teenagers with assault rifles mowing down folks in the streets, cuz zygotes got rights too.

It is wild that "pro life" people countenance human rights atrocities all the time.

And now the "LAW AND ORDER" candidate is willfully exposing Secret Service agents because he needed an ego boost.

Both?

Did the Sweden model even work in Sweden or is that another myth?

Sweden has a total of 94k cases (0.009 % of total population)

daily positives are around 500

total deaths are just under 6k

their per capita death rate, though, is higher (36) than the US (27), and neighboring Denmark (9)

I have always believed that anyone who votes against abortion should be exempt from any medical treatment that exists thanks to research done on fetal tissue that originated from abortions.

Fucking hypocrites.

Those people should be sedated and isolated. They are mentally ill.

They are not sedated and isolated against their will. They are asked to go home and stay there. Some listen. Others do not. People aren't arrested sedated and locked away if they don't listen. That just isn't how it works.

My dad's friend is currently at home with covid (has symptoms and is not doing very well, but not bad enough that he has taken himself to the hospital or called an ambulance to get him). Nobody forced him to go there(home) after his positive test. He isn't strapped to a bed. If he shares a bunch of fake news on facebook later nobody is coming to sedate/isolate/and inprison him against his will because he is "mentally ill".

Calling for the assassination of someone is illegal. If trump does that i am confident our law enforcement will quickly arrest him and he will "pay the price" for breaking the law.

...and last i saw trump hasn't been anywhere but the white house so far has he? That is where people "isolate", at their home.

More than 300 non-family members work at the house Trump is currently living in.

Zero non-family members work in the house I am currently living in.
