  1. They all died and did not reproduce (if you are starving but decided to give away your last piece of bread to "the other guy", you and your family will die).... and it seems according to a lot of hysterical posts that I'm seeing on the internet, presently, these people will start to get infected by the virus and just before dying; they will turn into zombies just like Tom Hanks and his wife. They only way to save yourself is to buy toilet paper, because the zombies are repelled by toilet paper hence the large number of people hoarding toilet paper and making tp forts.
  2. My family comes "first"... Then my city comes "first".. Then my nation comes "first"... During an emergency, that is how things are and will always be - "selfish" or not. I live in the USA so Trump's America first is fine by me. Governments should always try and make sure their "constituency" comes first because sometimes there's only so many life rafts on a sinking cruise ship.. So many pieces of bread on the table during a famine.. so many escape pods on a disintegrating space ship... If my government didn't have my best interest in mind, I would re-elect someone else. I'm not sure why other countries put their citizens behind other citizens from different countries and then complain about trump. The USA is an awesome country especially under Trump. We are one of the few remaining superpowers. We feed the world with foods created with American innovation. We have reduced poverty indirectly across the world. We have created youtube, the internet, and espoused idea of freedom of speech. We are awesome. You Europeans are OK... 😜 This thread is kinda weird. I'm not sure why some people get upset that other citizens of other countries are proud of their government. Or that some people in their own country like their government. In any case, I'm told I might be getting a few checks from Uncle Sam. Thank you Trump.
  3. That's the biggest "no, no" ever. Unless, it's some no-budget, 2 bit film set. One could get lucky and find a gig that had anti-trump people, but I wouldn't bet my film career by being political. Soon or later, you will get burn.
  4. I've been laid off before. It wasn't fun, but that didn't cause me to hoard food, and toilet paper as if the world was going to end.
  5. If u are not old and dont have health issues, and are avoiding contact with everyone.... Makes no sense for you to be freaking out. Zombies will not be breaking into your house looking for toliet paper.
  6. I'm predicting the virus will sputter out within a few weeks so I'm looking for summer flights to the west coast of Oregon. I'm thinking flights should be extremely cheap right now - and perhaps hotels. Yeah, I think this will be the case since a lot of camera releases seem to have been delayed. When the floodgates of new camera models come onto the market, the price of used cameras will go down.
  7. 12,000 Americans died because of the swine flu. I think Obama didn't have any travel bans until 8,000 Americans died. So far approx 70 Americans have died because of the COVID19. There have been travel bans, restaurants forcefully closed, etc. Lets see what the final numbers will be. I don' think your assessment of COVID19 is more dangerous than the swine flue will be proven true. In just about any measurements, Trump has done better regarding containing pandemics than ANY of the previous administrations.
  8. But you are because you are contributing to the panic and causing more noise when rational voices should be the ones being heard and listened to. You don't even care that you are biased when you say, "Well, yeah. But...why is that a bad thing?". Of course its a bad thing. Biases do not belong in logical thought. Irrational people causes a bad situation to be 100X worse.
  9. Did you say the same thing with Obama and the swine flu virus? I doubt it.... People are going bonkers now. Being bias is bad because it creates panic and kills people because rational thought gets drowned out. It causes toilet paper to be hoarded, and ultimately people to die.
  10. Yes, lets revisit this thread 12 months from now. The total death is now around 60 -- mostly elderly. We have a ways to go until it's 12,000. Considering most scientist seem to think it will wane just like any other flu, and china cases are already going down, I highly doubt it will get that far. Also, my nephew is an healthcare professional and he says doctors and nurses are being extremely vigilant with respect to taking care of their elderly patients (most testing kits go to them first). Lets see how the USA health care system does. The USA health care which ranks below 25th. I bet you the number of deaths in the USA will be lower than that of Italy - a "top 5 health care system". If that happens, you should probably go back and ask yourself if your sources are biased.
  11. Elderly aged 80+ with pneumonia are the largest percentage of people who die because of pneumonia. 50,000 people die on average per a year in the USA while around 1 million seek medical attention in hospitals. In high likelihood, it will kill vastly more elderly people like your friend than Covid 19. Are you complaining about pneumonia?????? The Swine flu outbreak of 2009 had killed 12,000 people in the USA under Obama's watch. How many Americans are killed under Trumps during this Covid 19 outbreak? People who are complaining about Trump, were they complaining about Obama? Did you? By all measurements related to previous administrations, Trump is doing an excellent job. The USA has one of the lowest number of deaths when considering how porous our borders are. It's quite strange to me how we as a nation (USA) can shut down because of the Covid19, but not a peep when 12,000 Americans died under the swine flu. The biggest thing I can see is that we have Trump as president, and there seems to be people who don't like him and will flame the fires of discontent. You seem very discontented. Are you? Go buy some toilet paper because apparently Covid 19 makes people have diarrhea since it is in such low supply.
  12. Huhmmm.. When a person is the biggest, baddest Muther Fu'er in the land; other people will say you aren't. That's cool. Believe what you want :-)
  13. Aprox. 30 people have died in the USA from COVID19. However, thousands have already died from the common flu. I'm also sure thousands more have died from car accidents. SoooOOOooOOOoooOO. Is the common flu a global calamity? Are car accidents??? In my city, chicago; I think there have been more people shot than killed by COVID19. There is always some dumb mf that doesn't know math and likes to call other people "dumb mf".... So. Sick. Of. It. There is two paths. One is paved with good intentions.. the other is paved with rational thought. The one with good intention gives you the ability to think you are smarter than everyone else because it's a global calamity. The the path looks at the statistics and says, 30 people dead, while not good, it is not a global calamity. Perhaps in the future, it maybe... but it is not right now. Never mind with what I wrote above.. It's a global calamity!!!! EVeryone stay home!!! Don't go out. Buy TP, rice, beans and GUNS. It's crazy out there!!!!! The government is lying. TOM HANKS AND HIS WIFE IS DYING!!! God, save us..
  14. Sooooo, basically you guys don't want any of that sweet, sweet AMERICAN created vaccine for the virus??? Because there's very high chance, it will be created in an AMERICAN lab using capitalistic means and methods. Whatever........... basically the rest of the world has been sucking on the teet of the American people for so long and complaining, why change now, right??? 🙂
  15. But yet, Europe have more cases and deaths than the USA which proactively closed it's borders. Also, guess which country will come up with the vaccine first? If history is to be our guide, it will be the USA... while the Europeans once again wait in line hand in hat saying "can we have some of that?" once the hard work has been done.
