Of course the WHO is in the cross hairs of many and now exploring what they endorse like

WHO Guidelines Encourage Children Younger Than 4 be Taught “Masturbation” and “Gender Identity”

https://summit.news/2020/04/29/who-guidelines-encourage-children-younger-than-4-be-taught-masturbation-and-gender-identity/


I would like to know why the head of the Virus response is the one that actually endorsed and knew about the research making it. This research mind you was outlawed in the US many years ago and the conditions at the Chinese lab were not up to standards. Research that took an animal virus that normally would not migrate to humans. One that they designed to be more effective infecting humans.

A Frankenstein virus so to speak, one that was totally unnecessary to do, condemned by many, illegal by many countries standards, done in a lab that was not up to standards, in an area that had animal markets and poor sanitation.


Therefore, a total of $7.4 million had been provided for the Chinese coronavirus research, according to the report.
   

Newsweek has highlighted that the Chinese Scientists who were said to have been doing ‘crazy’ things with coronavirus in the Wuhan Institute of Virology, were funded by the White House senior health advisor Dr Anthony Fauci just last year.

The Newsweek report notes that over 200 scientists called for the work going on in the Wuhan lab, as well as other Chinese facilities to be halted, specifically warning that it “increased the likelihood that a pandemic would occur through a laboratory accident.”

In addition, a world renowned Russian microbiologist claimed last week that the novel coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic was the result of Wuhan scientists doing “absolutely crazy things” in their lab.

However, Dr. Fauci defended the research, writing in the Washington Post on December 30, 2011 “Determining the molecular Achilles’ heel of these viruses can allow scientists to identify novel antiviral drug targets that could be used to prevent infection in those at risk or to better treat those who become infected.”

I scoffed at coronavirus at first until pandemic's scope hit me (news article)

https://www.floridatoday.com/story/news/2020/04/30/coronavirus-opinion-event-made-me-realize-scope-covid-19/3032830001/

An interesting article with some very good points.  Among them:

"So why am I telling you this?

I wanted people to know I was wrong. It's hard for some people to admit when they are wrong. But I was not alone. Many people were wrong.

However, with time, I used new information to evolve and change my mind. It's OK to change from your original stance.

The thing I don’t understand is how other people see what has happened and still call COVID-19 a hoax or don’t take it seriously.

I also don’t understand why so many people have become Monday-morning quarterbacks, saying we should have done this or that and this could have been done better. Maybe they’re right, but that helps no one right now as we’re in the middle of it. What matters is what we do moving forward.

And so, the dance goes on. The left second-guesses the right. The right says it’s fake and redirects blame to the left. And both sides fight on.

I’ve often found in life, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. We need to stop pointing fingers and do what’s best for our country.

I don’t have the exact answer, but I would like to say this:

The “openers” need to understand that “closers” don’t want to infect loved ones – or anyone for that matter – especially if they deal with people in the most at-risk groups. They also don’t want to overwhelm the medical community, which does not have unlimited resources.

The “closers” need to understand that “openers” are hurting. They are running out of money and food. Their children are suffering. Suicides and substance abuse is up. More than just livelihoods are being lost. The resources to help these people are extremely limited.

Personally, since I have a mother over 70 and a child under 6, I plan to continue my cautious lifestyle for the foreseeable future, even as the economy opens up. I will continue to wear a mask in public, wash my hands incessantly and limit where I go.

That’s all I can do.

Let politicians and TV news pundits duke it out.

We need to support each other as the world starts moving again. Coming together is so much harder than driving each other apart."

[Robert]

Maybe like cattle with a shot,  people are stampeded based on fear, aided by people who had much experience with this illness, but didn't inform us and made false way off the chart predictions.

 Men who knew much more than they were saying on illegal research, already condemned by many scientists, even stating it was crazy research. Even Bill Gates knew about this yet I don't hear a him saying anything to help people except vaccines.

Why did they not tell us the rate of death would be very low? Why did they not tell us the US gave 7 million to research this? Why did we not know that Fauci knew and endorsed this testing, against the advice of many and being illegal in the US and most nations?

The insanity to spend millions to create an illegal illness for the purpose of helping humans only not to have any remedy for the Frankenstein they created. REALLY?

We have highlighted and made center focus in fear a disease that is so much less deadly than so many others.

Elevated by fear as an excuse, have had rights taken away and new restrictions put on society that may never ever be removed. Left to bear the financial burden in so many ways of failed policies and political agendas. 

We are supposed to be informed and make rational decisions for our families. WE WERE NOT, informed, we were not allowed in on the extent of the research. WE are made to pay the price for illegal research financed by the US and Fauci knew about it, made the predictions and is holding the economy hostage till he thinks its OK to open.

Death, war, disease, poverty, hunger, anger are not pretty and the population like cattle once jolted out of the clean civilization some not knowing the slaughter of cows and chickens is where we get our meat and not looking at what that takes are ignorant to the realities of life and living. Panic at the awaking thoughts that illnesses can kill, but not told we walk everyday in the valley of death, yet we live, prosper, and go on with life.

That’s all I can do.

You are certainly within your rights to do so and you can still do so with the economy opened back up.

I too have dogs in this fight.

My mother is 92 years old and my wife has an immune disorder.

Still, I am in favor of opening things back up and returning to a more normal life.

I believe that we are fully capable of doing so and still protecting ourselves as much as possible.

We are supposed to be informed and make rational decisions for our families. WE WERE NOT, informed

Exactly, provide the people with the information and the resources that they need to protect themselves and let them take responsibility for their selves.

Knowledge is power.

Could it be that those in power don't want their "Subjects" to have power over their own lives?

Could it be that those in power don't want their "Subjects" to have power over their own lives?

It is becoming obvious that this may be the case. Especially so when the questions are not being answered.

My sister is a KS Driver's License examiner - they have been on administrative leave for the past 6 weeks. And they don't go back to the office until at least May 18th. Even then, no driving test for a bit. The big concern is there is no way to protect them employees during a drive test in a car - trucks are another matter. I half jokingly suggested they put some handles on 2' x 2' plexiglass panels, And they hold that in place for the drive.

She is visiting this week from Hutchinson, one of our "nieces" is having cancer / polyp removal surgery tomorrow at KU Med center . Dena is doing better up here and away from her mom (she likes saying she has a 55 year old kid for a mother). Dena is not a bad baker either. Home baked bread and an apple pie went fine with leftover home lasagna and salad from last night (lasagna was the wife's and mine).

If you're a praying type - please pray for Dena.
Thank you.

"Government mandating sick people to stay home is called quarantine. However, the government mandating healthy citizens to stay home, forcing businesses and churches to close is called tyranny,"

If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.

I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.

Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.

I'm sure watching closely.   Even President Trump noted reopening our economy would be gradual,  and expressed his displeasure with some governors who disregarded his directives.   Judging from my unscientific poll,  most of us supported his initial three stage plan for states to move forward.

Some governors disregarded the directives altogether and are driving into the cee-ment pond with nary a toe dip.  Others are dragging their heels stubbornly and being extremely oppressive.   I think if Trump had enforced the directives,  whether they were popular with the governors or not, much of the confusion could have been avoided.  Meet the requiremets, move on to the next level.  Period.   Allowing each governor to do whatever they please is not working out so well,  no matter how w feel about it.

I've been out riding.  My ethanol free gas station is open.   The weather is here.   No police have pulled me over to harass me.   I have food in the fridge,  and can go to stores to get more.  

So, while I'm watching I'm not quite sure I'm wanting to fight just yet.   We can scream at the governors,  at political parties,  at scientists,  health organizations,  pharmaceutical companies and most justifiably at China.   But like it or not our state governors have been given great liberties by the President on this issue, and great powers by the law in general.

But this is America!   The people have the power!   Don't we?

Yes, sort of.   We can place legal pressure on governors - -  demonstrate,  protest, introduce legislation,  write our representatives and paper editors and VOTE!   Maybe some civil disobedience to keep them on their toes...    

I'm a Patriot.

I won't take up arms against elected officials unless I see things truly spiraling out of control into complete oppression and hopelessness.

I ain't there - - yet.   So I watch.   Very closely.

Do you not remember the $h!t Storm that President Trump started when he said that "He" had the power to open and close the country?

I remember quite a few Governors ranting about that not being in the Constitution.

That they, NOT the President had the power to open or lock down individual states.



Right or wrong each individual governor is trying to save face, especially the ones with a D behind their name.

They'll eventually fall in line with what the Federal Government wants.

One thing is for sure, The country cannot stay on lock down for 2 years and survive.

There has to be a point where we do what we can to protect those that are in high risk groups and let everyone get back to working and living their lives.

If an outbreak occurs in a community then Quarantine that community, NOT the entire state.

They describe the station thisaway (from their website).

"Americana Roots music for Cowhands, Cowpokes and Cowtippers".

"Music that showcases the ongoing hopelessness in your otherwise dreary life. Americana roots music (or what they used to call Country Western) at its core, stuff that's both musically and lyrically unique. Consider it a musical intervention for your bedraggled soul".
