So now we're getting COVID outside? You're funny

fortunately Cassandros supplied us with the science that proves that social distancing isn't effective out in the wind if you are downwind of someone that is sneezing. make a note of that.
You seem to be willfully 'forgetting' the last few years...Animal wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2024 1:41 pmi know how important it is to you to dispute every single thing Fauci ever said, but that report doesn't dispute the effectiveness of maintaining 6 feet. How many times were people social distancing in the wind?Cassandros wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2024 2:51 amSo... you believe "6' social distancing" actually works and is a valid mitigation technique, still, after ~4 years?
(Hate to tell you, but actual science confirms it's not.)My god. This was for standing in line at Home Depot or Piggly Wiggly, where the wind is typically not that much.
and it takes no more science than common sense to know that when you have a disease that is passed on from one person to another, then keeping those people from coming in direct contact is smart. Which is probably where it went over your head.
I have to ask, are you being deliberately daft?Animal wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 8:10 pm by gosh, you are right. instead of making a simple, sweeping, nationwide policy of "stay at least 6 feet apart" they should have had a bunch of footnotes for:
1. Except in a windy conditions. If wind is 0-10 mph then 6.5 feet should be used. If wind is 10 to 20 mph please use 8.7 feet. etc...
2. Or if you are in a building and there is some type of rotating air circulating machine aimed in your direction. Then increase distance to 8 feet. Unless that air is circulating more than 12 mph, then increase.....
3. Or if.....
I can't believe that 4 years later people are still desperate to prove they were right all along about something that literally no one gives a fuck about.
actually, i'm smart enough to not be offended by a common sense based rule to keep your distance during a pandemic that is spread by people to people. Its hard for me to understand anyone that can't grasp that. And its hilarous when a person tries to turn that advice into some huge life changing event imposed on humanity.

There was NO science to support this decree (or any covid mandate, really, but I digress...).
The correct move was --> Not creating a fucking National policy based on 'magic'.

The reason you don't care is because, deep down, you know you're wrong.
Your ego prevents you from admitting that fear got the best of you and you supported (and contributed to) medical tyranny without any valid cause.
And, sadly, those who cannot learn from their mistakes --> are doomed to repeat them. You will become a medical Karen all over again when the fearporn rolls in to overdrive; actual science and critical thinking be damned.
Recommending advice based on 'magic' is on thing... Demanding, fining, and arresting people based on 'magic' is a whole different beast.Animal wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 9:36 pmactually, i'm smart enough to not be offended by a common sense based rule to keep your distance during a pandemic that is spread by people to people.

driving too close to another car is a crime in Texas and you can be given a ticket or arrested for it. Does that make you fear for your rights as a human?Cassandros wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 3:01 pm It's both sad and amusing when people can't understand the difference between a recommendation and a mandate.
Imagine being arrested because you didn't leave enough space between you and the car in front of you.

you just said to "imagine being arrested because you didn't leave enough space...." You CAN Be fucking arrested for that. You can be arrested even without a snow storm. You could be arrested for it on a bright sunny day. Why aren't you angry about that? Why aren't you on some rant to change the driving laws because tailgating is some infringement on your basic human rights?Cassandros wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 3:36 pm/facepalmAnimal wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 3:10 pmdriving too close to another car is a crime in Texas and you can be given a ticket or arrested for it.

So, because the weather is cold with the chance of ice, the government should mandate twice the length between vehicles for all 50 states and arrest anyone who dares get 1' too close?
Get bent, your analogy holds no water and your logic is severely lacking.
In ONE state there is a law that allows that. And you will only ever be arrested for driving too close if you are also 1) exceedingly reckless, 2) taking part in street racing, or 3) manage to piss off the officer who pulled you over and he adds charges. Otherwise its a fucking class C misdemeanor and you will NOT go to jail.Animal wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 3:41 pmyou just said to "imagine being arrested because you didn't leave enough space...."

Why not just stop and think about how fucking stupid and petty any of those complaints you have are?
Arrests for following too close should happen every time. Punishments should increase for repeated offensesCassandros wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 3:01 pm It's both sad and amusing when people can't understand the difference between a recommendation and a mandate.

this will come as a surprise. Every single state has a law making tailgating illegal. Every one. Its a conspiracy meant to deny us our rights given by the constitution. I bet Fauci made these tailgate laws!!!

trust me, the government would have absolutely no more reason to jail someone for violating social distancing laws than they would to jail that same person for tailgating laws. So what's the difference, you ask? The difference is that most people understand the need for tailgating laws and they don't turn it into some kind of stupid mission. while there are plenty of Karen's that had to make a point over social distancing laws so they ended up arrested. because they are stupid. like you.Cassandros wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2024 1:11 amNot that big of a surprise...Animal wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 5:20 pmthis will come as a surprise.

What's funny is: You think that magically makes your point more valid?
It doesn't. Tailgating alone won't land you in jail like breaking social distancing rules did.
Eh..

At the end of the day it doesn't change the fact that any rule that has zero data or scientific studies to back it should NOT be implemented against the public. They should have simply said it was a recommendation and not part of a rule set."She's learned that our constitutional rights are something worth standing up for," Mooney said. "She got to witness a violation of civil rights. She got to witness an unlawful order by the police."
so you are really going to stick to the fact that there is zero data that increasing the distance between people, when one of them has a communicable virus, has absolutely no effect on the transmission of that virus?Cassandros wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2024 3:01 am At the end of the day it doesn't change the fact that any rule that has zero data or scientific studies to back it should NOT be implemented against the public.
