And if they are giving the terminally ill COVID-19, it stands to reason that people are dying "of" COVID-19.

Statistically speaking, and depending on the picture one wishes to paint, yes. Though an mRNA vaccine doesn’t “give” anybody anything except instructions for configuring the immune system. So I’m not sure what you mean by “giving”? Are you implying the vaccine is “giving” people SARS-COV-2?Quote:

Also, don’t forget the context free PCR cycle threshold, so symptom free and non-contagious individuals can be counted as “cases”.
Nevermind the insult. The survival rate was never mentioned, and the fact that it is not sky high is what is referred to by "When it comes to diseases that are not catastrophic".
It does not seem likely that the goverments around the world will back off until the number of hospitalizations go down significantly. Therefore the spreading must be stopped by vaccinations, regardless of the death rate.
Can’t say I disagree with most of your points, except you missed the intent of my original post. This movement to ban chokes is based on a broad misunderstanding and ignorance and it’s probably going to carry over to civilians.
What’s going to happen when you use a choke to peacefully end a street fight and all of the sudden you’re facing attempted murder charges? This is bad for anyone who trains BJJ for self defense, not just police.
And who is more likely to shoot an unarmed person who is resisting arrest? A cop who can’t handle a physical altercation, or a cop who trains in submission grappling?
Yes deescaltion training and community involvement are important for police reform, but cops are still going to draw a firearm on unarmed suspects unless they have a broader toolbox and a greater sense of confidence in a physical altercation. Money is the problem, but maybe the solution is to spend more on training police and less on hiring copious amounts of PC bookworms who have never been in a fight before.
I’ve never seen that choke before, but the more I learn about BJJ, the more i realize that there is a LOT that I don’t know. I’ve had a lot of luck with this one from side control with the same grips: pull the head up with the nearside lapel, step over and wrap their head with the back of your knee, head on the mat like north/south, pull and ham curl.
Interesting thing. Hank Aaron was vaccinated two weeks before he died with great publicity at the time to encourage black people to do it. His cause of death has not been talked about.
You must not live in the US, because democrat governors are doing just that right now and have been advocating such backing off for two weeks now. To wit: Newsom, Cuomo, and Pritzker.
I think I may be channeling Will Rogers, because all I know is what I read in the newspapers.
For instance, Bidet has halted the Keystone pipeline.
How is this Build Back Better, especially when it cost the union jobs of the union bosses who supported and funded his campaign?
If this pipeline is a BAD THING why was it a GOOD THING for Bidet's son Hunter to be involved with and handsomely paid by a Ukrainian oil and gas combine?
If Trump was a bad President who it was asserted treated our adversaries well and treated our allies badly, then why is Canada so pissed at Bidet over halting the pipeline? Putin is happy, because it strengthens his control over international oil and gas supplies.
Since we're discussing Putin, let's review the last four years when dems and their pet media types claimed Trump was in his pocket. Yet Bidet has received praise from Putin for his extension of the nuclear arms treaty. So where is all the concern from the media over his getting cozy with Putin just now?
That is a good question.
Christianity in the States is tightly woven into "God and country", the whole country was a Christian Mecca for Christians around the world, even their currency has written on it "In God We Trust", it is in their laws and character, their charitable works were all over the world and it is no wonder folk from all around the world were trying to bust their way in.

In this dark world however it is not surprising that a country such as this would be attacked, even from the inside. You simply cannot have a country that stands for life and liberty on this globe when many peoples are living under some form of tyranny, the darkness wants to overtake it that is why the US is undergoing so much turmoil. How much more time we can shelter under this country I do not know, however I do know there is a new country coming.
“For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind." Isa 65V17
"And His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.” This expression, “Yet once more,” denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain." Heb 12v26-27
"But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells." 2Pet 2v13
I just wish things were moving a little faster.
