Posted 11 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" The reason I keep posting this is the fact it was coined in Latin............... Which might be rendered as, "Who is watching over the police?" .......which would seem to indicate this sentiment and uneasiness has been with us for over two millennia... ....So, "Who ya gonna call?..............Ghost Busters?" |

Posted 11 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: The hospitalization rates are a much more revealing indicator of the disease activity.Providing your country has sufficient (operational) hospital capacity to accept and record all referrals. Read, or listen to, the reports from Yemen. .....Uh..........I believe the PEOPLE of Yemen have a far greater chance of fatality from starvation and 'lead' poisoning from rebel groups than Covid...... |

Posted 11 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: It will be interesting to see what happens to infection & death rates in the next few weeks as the effects of the world-wide protests and easing of lock-down in many countries are shown. Sadly I think we might see bumps in many countries that have had big, sustained drops over the last few weeks. The massive increase in testing will also contribute greatly to an increasing number of cases reported. The infection numbers should not be the data considered as the primary indicator of increased or decreased existence of the disease. The hospitalization rates are a much more revealing indicator of the disease activity. |

Posted 11 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: Wait - didn't we once build our own kit? !!!...........a realization SLOWLY dawning the world over........... When you purchase another Country's/Culture's/Government System's technology, you are tied to that source for maintenance, repair, upgrades and expansion. A lesson that has been unintentionally (?) taught by the Covid crisis. This is also especially true with "defense" systems. The members of NATO are pretty much stuck with US aircraft and weapons manufacturers and the client states of Russia and China are dependent on staying in the good graces of those governments. "If you sell it or use it here, you must build it here", should be the new world motto. |

Nobody knows anything,.............but EVERYBODY'S got a pretty chart.............. I'm sure those wishing for a world of Socialist/Communist absolute control of the peasants are rooting for more waves. Best way to destroy a Free Capitalist society is to prohibit Free Capitalism...........and disease is a great excuse. Now if we can only convince those pesky Yanks that you can catch Covid-19 from firearms............. |

Posted 9 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: You're the one that insists on the constitution and the amendments, so tell me why you support Trump after he sent in the troops, who used CS gas and rubber batons, on to peaceful people expressing their 1st amendment rights to free speech. Peaceful People don't deface monuments, destroy and loot businesses and murder their own black brothers trying to defend those businesses......who weeps for David Dorn? President Trump supports 'Rule of Law'..............not 'Rule of Mob'. |

Posted 7 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: No stocks of drugs, vaccines and PPE but everything is now only produced "just in time". .....and produced almost totally from one source...........curiously the same source as the disease we're now combating...........coincidence? That's the OTHER vital lesson we should be learning, it's about all the eggs being in the same basket. Any government(National, State, County or Local) that REALLY values it's citizens lives and health should never again allow vital materials be in the sole control of a foreign, and possibly, hostile entity. |

Posted 7 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: The one good thing I think everyone will agree that has come of this scourge unleashed on mankind is the spur given Virology research. The US and the World have poured effort into finding the mechanisms, therapies and cures for virus based illness. This should have happened to a much larger degree 35 years ago when AIDS and HIV became known. There was just enough done to make the disease survivable but by no means cured. Had there been a more widespread vector for the disease that would not have been the case, there would have been the same effort that we now see applied to Covid-19. According to the best research there are thousands of strains of Corona type viruses that can make the mutational jump to humans from various 'lower' animals. Perhaps the silver lining in this black cloud will be a therapy or vaccine that will block the unique 'spike' feature that makes these RNA bits so easily able to infect cell tissue. |

Posted 7 Jun 2020 by JaundicedEye Post: But what silliness next? ..............four more years of glorious WINNING!............ The abject stupidity of the Radical Left's positions are being put on full display with the latest low point of 'Defund the Police'..........really? Does anyone really think that is a viable alternative? The looters and defacers of America would LOVE to see that come to pass, but............it will never happen. For the same reason that Donald J Trump will be re-elected by a firm margin on November 3rd. And the same reason the voices of nihilism will be removed from Congress on November 3rd. We, The People..........are overall men and women who value the safety and sanctity of their families, homes and businesses. They've seen what happens when the 'Thin Blue Line' is removed from the equation, St John's Church set on fire, the World War II and Viet Nam Memorials vandalized, disrespecting those who died to protect the right to PEACEFULLY protest and the idea of personal FREEDOM. We, The People........have seen men and women, murdered and beaten trying to defend their sources of income, not by the demonized police but by those calling for the removal of police. We, The People.......have noted which cities have been chosen by the Radical Left organized and funded crowd managers driving the camouflage covering the looting and destruction, by the deflecting story that it's about George Floyd. And they are the very same cities self-designated as 'sanctuary cities'.....not much sanctity for the people who had their homes and businesses destroyed, mostly in minority communities as is the usual case(Baltimore, Ferguson, Watts). What about David Dorn? Who weeps for this hero, also black and MURDERED by the thugs, looting in the night, that he had spent his 76 years combating under the cover of protest of a murder of a black man..........is that justice? Where is Al Sharpton screaming for JUSTICE for David Dorn?.....................doesn't fit the narrative and little Al doesn't see a financial benefit. The Radical Left wants to spur a governmental 'sea change' to placate their blind hatred of The President. Well there WILL be a sea change on November 3rd, and it will not be to the liking of those slimy little creatures that have been living under the swamp rocks for 70 years. There will be very few Congressional incumbents in the 2022 campaign..... And the police will still be out there, 'Serving and Protecting'...........because that's what they do. |
