You know, Oak, I've come across a lot of BS in various discussions in these forums. And it usually comes from people being intellectually dishonest, because they have a clear agenda to protect, and not because they are incapable of understanding things if they really wanted to.

But with you, it's like you're in your own world, where words somehow have a separate meaning, and it's ALWAYS the fault of someone else for not understanding YOU.

I read very clearly what you said, and at NO POINT did I say that you asked for all covid discussion to stop. I'm saying, there is NOTHING ELSE GOING ON. I don't know how else I can say that, in a way that you won't construe, for the billionth time, that I somehow failed to understand your point. I read your post, I got your point, and I raised you another... Covid keeps coming up, because that's all that's dominating our lives, with all of the actions that are being taken that affect each and every one of us.

There are no games being played. Free agency is over. The draft is a couple of weeks away. We'd all like an escape from what is going on, but we're right in the middle of it, and there just isn't any way around it.

I tried to add a little humor in my post as a gesture toward changing the subject. But I can see that your ego is too strong to notice anything else. So I'll be sure not to waste my time responding to the next thread you start.

I’m now seeing headlines about people firing into gatherings, and people assaulting people over “social distancing.”

Has it really been so easy to bring people to this point? We’re f***ed.

Sincerest apologies, I read your reply as a misinterpretation of my post. I watched over 1/2 a dozen co-workers get cut and took a pay cut the day before, head probably wasn't the clearest.

Just so you might understand my replies better in the future, that wasn't arrogance, it was sarcasm.

I'm not sure what kind of apology ends in you saying you were being sarcastic, but I'm assuming not a genuine one. I also do not ask for any apology, though I'll accept it, nonetheless. All I ask, is stop implying I don't understand you.

I had no "problem" with your original post. I merely wanted to point out that it should not be surprising that coronavirus conversations are all you see in every thread, when this is all that's going on. Some people believe the hype and are scared, and some of us are angry that this country is being duped. But whatever side people fall on, it's brought everything around us to a halt, and this forum is where some of us go just to vent.

So while I appreciate and agree with your desire to have an escape from the topic, it's just not practical, at least in my mind, that people are going to come to this thread only, for this topic. Everywhere you turn, something else we enjoy is affected by all of this. That is the long version of the point I was trying to make, without poo pooing your idea, altogether. Because I got what you were trying to do.

Let's talk about a man at a park with his 6 year old daughter being handcuffed and detained for being at a park with his 6 year old daughter. Let's also discuss the woman out driving alone in her car ticketed for being out driving in her car alone.

Sounds important

I don't always assume you are misunderstanding as though you 'cant comprehend', Its more like misreading or misinterpreting which happens often when people aren't talking face to face.

See if this makes more sense.. The apology was sincere. The previous reply that started this was sarcasm, not arrogance (in reference to your comment about my ego).

Thank you for accepting my apology. If you ever think I am being patronizing or arrogant its probably not intentional but just ask. Ill tell you.

To everyone in a panic and those that argue projection models... Just dont.

The basis for all of it is garbage and both the government and their agencies will make you look foolish.

Stop trusting what they tell you. Its crap and DHS should take a ton of politicians in to custody for inciting terror.
