    where did I say I know more than him..you are soooooooo wrong..again

    and as usual all the libs have avoided what was posted

     

    Do you seriously get your news from Instagram? Is that a smart place to get news?

     

    Fuck facebook.

     

    eta: Here, read about Fauci's un-fucking-paralleled career on Wikipedia, which is a pretty lackluster source but is about 18 million times better than getting your information from Instagram. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, our nation's highest honor, by noted lib GW Bush for his selfless, decades long efforts combating HIV.

     

    Here's a quote from that wiki page:

     

    Political commentator Helen Andrews defended Fauci's actions during the epidemic in a 2021 article, writing:

     

    The idea that Fauci was "wrong" about A.I.D.S., which some of his contemporary opponents repeat, is unfair. His most notorious error was a 1983 paper suggesting "routine close contact, as within a family household," might spread the disease, but it was an understandable mistake given what was known at the time and he corrected it within a year, lightning speed by the standards of academic publishing. He behaved more responsibly than some of his peers when it came to speculating about a heterosexual A.I.D.S. epidemic around the corner. He was not one of the hysteria-mongers—though he did benefit from the hysteria when negotiating budgets with Congress.

     

    Do you have a rebuttal to that? Helen Andrews' take seems pretty reasonable to me.

     

     

    Goddamn I can't wait for this thread to get nuked with all of CR.

    Likewise. I also hope that case numbers go down, ICUs empty, and our health care workers get a much needed break. It's hard to bitch too much about still wearing masks or needing boosters when they're going through round, what, 4 now?

    greg honestly thanks for the links. the reason why i bring that up is that we have been promised if we do xyz then covid will stop. none of it has worked time and time again. 1 mask, 2 mask, shutdowns, vaccine mandates, boosters, etc. now were stuck dealing with variants that no one is prepared for which i doubt anyone has a solution for.

     

    You're welcome.

     

    I would disagree with your assessment, though. I don't think that anybody has promised anything. Everyone is doing their best with the best information they have in a constantly changing pandemic. And this is one example of something you evidently thought was promised by Fauci, but as I've shown, he never did.

     

    The closest anyone ever came to a promise was "two weeks to flatten the curve," which in retrospect was a poor way to sell it. It should have been "two weeks to possibly avert an Italy or Iran level of catastrophe and then we'll take it day by day from there," but I guess that didn't have the same ring.

     

    And that was a whole thing during the lockdowns. Everyone demanded DeWine tell them when it would all be over, and unsurprisingly he never did. Because he didn't know. He got raked over the coals for not making promises.

    I should add, I'm just doing google searches based on time windows, first in May, then early March, and then for the above post early April. But Fauci was always clear that the need for boosters was a possibility. Here he is in December:

     

    Fauci hopes to know by the second quarter of 2021 if the nation has a veil of immunity due to the vaccine. And by the end of 2021 and beginning of 2022, he hopes to find out if the vaccines will be a one-time thing, or if booster shots will be needed down the road.

     

    And again:

     

    At this point, we are accustomed to getting a flu shot every year, but will we be required to get a Coronavirus vaccine annually? Fauci said it's still unclear exactly how often we will need to get a booster but that he's "not so sure it will be every year, but I would be surprised if it gave life long immunity." That means, "we likely would have to get boosted. What interval of those boosts are, I don't know right now," he said.

    article was posted in may 2021 after the vaccines started to fail regarding the hyped "protection".... try again.

     

    Fauci talking about boosters in early March

     

    “The approach taken by some companies, in this case Moderna, is to begin clinical trials of a booster shot against the specific variant in question. And in this case it’s the [b1.351 strain] from South Africa,” Fauci said.

     

    And again:

     

    The pharmaceutical companies Pfzier and Moderna are working with the FDA to test a booster vaccine to protect against the mutations, like the variant first identified in South African.

     

    Dr. Anthony Fauci says a COVID booster shot is a real possibility. That's why the companies are starting "clinical trials of a booster shot against the specific variant in question. And in this case, it's the 315 from South Africa," Fauci said.

     

    Which I believe, but I can't confirm, are both repeating information from this WH press conference on March 3rd, where Fauci also said:

     

    The next approach is booster doses of the wild-type — against the wild-type virus, which is exactly what Pfizer has announced a bit ago and what other companies will also be doing, namely talking about a third dose of the original vaccine for those vaccine regimens that were a prime and a boost. And that’s going to be given to participants in a phase one trial to evaluate safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity. That study will evaluate up to 144 participants in two age group cohorts.

     

    Cool?

    show us anything from fauci when vaccines were released that people would need booster shoots every 6 months to be fully vaccinated.

     

    https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/will-we-need-covid-19-vaccine-booster-fauci-says-bottom-n1268019

     

    "The bottom line is, we don't know if or when we will need booster shots," Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told NBC News. "But it would be foolish not to prepare for the eventuality that we might need it."

    Let's get 1 thing straight, getting the covid shot DOES NOT stop you from getting it or passing it along. Those were the first 2 lies given by fauci.

     

    You mean Jeb Fauci, the drunk you hang out with at the bar? Because Dr. Fauci never said either of those things.

    As I understand it's the same law (different section) that Kyle was charged with and the same conditionals apply. A half decent lawyer should be able to get it dismissed relatively easily.

     

    I don't think it's going to be that easy. The problem is that the law Kyle was charged with was contradicted by another law that described the type of weapons minors were allowed to have. You can't very well have a law that says "Minors can't own guns" and then another section that describes the type of guns that minors are allowed to own without leading to confusion.

     

    But there's no law contradicting "Minors aren't allowed to purchase guns", nor is there a law contradicting "You are not allowed to give a gun to a minor."

     

    Now a lawyer may argue that having a law saying minors are allowed to have a certain type of gun, but they can't purchase or be given said gun, is nonsense, but that would just be the the way it is -- minors could posses a type of weapon that they have no way of legally acquiring. And that seems to be the case.

     

    But I'm not a lawyer, so who knows. Regardless, the feds have him dead to rights on the straw purchase if they ever want to charge that, and it's certainly not any moral absolution that Dominick and Kyle both thought that what they were doing was illegal and they did it anyway. Hopefully Kyle is a good bro and lets some of his Tucker Carlson money trickle down to his dumbass friend.

    straw purchase..it's illegal..all they should be able to get him on is that..unless they try to over-prosecute

     

    That'd be a federal charge I think, but that charge hasn't been brought (yet). He's been charged with 2 counts of supplying a firearm to a minor in WI, up to 3 years each.

     

    He's very fucked.

    oh no... mean words.. hide everyone

     

    Remember when everyone got pissed off that I called people snowflakes and dolts?

     

    Mean words hurt. Sometimes. I think. I guess it depends. Someone explain the rules to me. Can I call people names again?

    Doing some cursory reading, seems like the challenge now is to develop payloads that can withstand the G forces that this generates. No small task, but then, neither was building a giant slingshot.
