That exactly the reason to wear a mask... to prolong the exposure to give them time to develope a vaccine and in the time being not to overburden our medical system! You would rather risk your life and others because you don't like wearing a mask? I'm guessing you don't believe in seat belts or speed limits too...

By the time a vaccine is formulated and approved for use on humans we will all have had it. Majority anyhow. I don't flu vaccine and I won't get that one either. My immune system will take care of it or I will die. Plain and simple.


Wish I had more time to trap....

It may be why there hasn't been any detectable spike.

I wear a mask any time I may come in contact with others, it's out of concern and respect for other people and loved ones.

Some may feel they have this whole virus figured out... they don't and neither do you!


Actually they are absolutely designed to filter particulates. They are not designed to filter microscopic things like a virus which can pass right through. They are meant to filter things like sawdust, sanding dust and other large particulates. By the way, I do have the entire thing figured out. It's a scam, a government power grab and the sheeple are to stupid to notice. There are very few people that this virus has been proven to be a danger to. People with pre existing medical conditions and the elderly. Other than that it's not a big deal for normal healthy people. 5 minutes of research and you can find that out. Get a clue and get a grip.




Oh, I'm sorry.... you have it all figured out. And everybody that doesn't agree or think like you are sheep and stupid. With all the facts and research you have presented here, can't argue with that. I'm sure you are an esteemed person in your family and community.

As a matter of fact, I am. Also, I have done my research, I know the facts and I prefer not to cower in fear. You go right ahead. I can't think less of you.

It was a test Gary. The lady had blood samples drawn for analysis, to determine whether or not if she had alzheimers or aids. With all the extra samples in the lab, from Covid 19 they got the results mixed up.
When the doctors office called to explain, the husband asked " what do I do now?"
They recommended he take her for a walk in the woods and leave her there.
If she finds her way home, don't sleep with her.

A older member of our church decided to get the flu vaccine. Had never had one before but thought since he was over 60 he should get it. A couple weeks later guess what he came down with...the flu. A vaccine isn't a cure and no matter how many vaccines you get for the Chinese flu you will catch it at some point. I've always thought those considered high risk should be the ones to quarantine and let those not considered high risk carry on and maybe we can develop some type of herd immunity. However, since I'm willing to take that risk for the common good I'm considered selfish. Here's just how selfish I am. My mom is 82 and has had asthma for most of her adult life. Since China flu is a respiratory ailment I have avoided contact with her. In fact, Mother's Day has been the only time since this began I've visited with her. Now here's the kicker, she also suffers from dementia. By avoiding contact with her, the next time I'm able to hug her neck she may not know me. So for those who try to play the guilt trip game, you can forget it, it don't work on me. Call me selfish all you want.

I’m just checking in when I’m back at the motel to nap or grab a bite, the wind has been a killer the trees are singing even before sun up and all night long.

Working Some gobblers later in the mornings I need to get on one before sun up, I have one lined up for tomorrow I hope man 3AM comes early. Went to the dump before heading out to the Hills that got me a nail in my tire so far. I open up T-man and see this is still going I just shake my head. LOL

If I could buy a quality mask that was like an n95 mask I would wear it and feel a lot safer.The problem as I see it, is that the masks people are wearing are not the quality to be effective.Saying that what people are wearing is better than nothing is not true.In fact it may create more of a problem because people that have the virus will now feel like they are safe and will not infect others thus entering the general population.

You're still scrambling, Finster.

You didn't just miss the board on that one, the dart hit the wall and fell on the floor.

If those people are so concerned about their health, why are they out of their house?

You're kind of late to the game on this one, Jerry Jr., but I just have to ask...If they are "Sheep" because they made THEIR choice to wear masks...for an unknown reason...what would they be called if they decided the stay in the house...for an unknown reason?

Well seen them again today Same deal so I pulled up close behind them gunned the engine I got them up to jogging speed for about a 1/4 mile then I pulled along side of them and asked them how they were doing. From the yelling and rude language I’d say no underlying health issues they were very loud. Guess it’s a fashion statement now? 🤬


Just kidding no need to blow a cork anybody I’m 65 myself. 😷

Are the NTA, the PTA, and many other trapping organizations cancelling their conventions considered "Sheep" as well? If not, why?
