Quote
The defendant, John Sullivan of Utah, has maintained that he attends raucous demonstrations as a journalist, sharing videos through his Insurgence USA website and social media platforms. Sullivan’s defense attorney even filed invoices with the court showing that CNN and NBC each paid Sullivan’s firm $35,000 last month for rights to video he filmed of chaotic scenes outside and inside the Capitol, including the deadly shooting of protester Ashli Babbitt by a U.S. Capitol Police officer.

However, prosecutors contend that Sullivan is not a mere bystander or chronicler of protests. Instead, they say, he actively encourages violence, telling viewers how to make Molotov cocktails and evade identification by police. He was arrested last month on charges stemming from the Jan. 6 riot, including interfering with police during a civil disorder. Sullivan was later hit with an additional charge: obstruction of Congress.

I’m pretty sure this guy is either just fucking nuts, or a shitbird who tries to encourage violence so he can get a good video of it and sell it.

Home intruder killed by armed 12-year-old; hero saves grandmother

(From the Wash Times that won't let me copy any link.) Bad guys shoot granny in the leg during break in. Grandkid kills 19 year old loser using family gun. Suck on that, The Squad!

There are so many motherfuckers still milking the COVID thing looooong after it had any impact on them whatsoever and some of the teacher bullshit is the fucking worst. Many millions of children have been in school all year and the data shows it just hasn’t been a problem.

That’s not 100% true. What the studies show is that when overall community spread is low to moderate, in-person learning doesn’t increase the spread. But when community spread numbers go up, schools start to become a transmission source.

Yet another reason we need to do everything we can to limit community spread.

I agree somewhat though, there is a lot of bullshit coming from the teachers unions.

You're on a roll.

If people really wanted schools open, they'd get their asses out of the bars

The places where bars have been open already have their kids in school. 🤦🏻

The most liberal places with the most heavy handed COVID protocols are the ones that aren’t opening schools.

At this point it is way more about teachers union bargaining and other fuckery than it is about fear of COVID. The supposed concern about community spread is absolutely priceless. Public officials nearly everywhere decided quite some time ago in person learning was worth the risk.

CA has never opened public schools and private ones needed some waivers that involved some pretty severe mental gymnastics.

But in the fall, indoor dining at 25% capacity was happening. Not the only state with this disconnect between risk/reward

I can somewhat go with the teachers on this - if you work at a restaurant and don't want to deal with it, you can quit, and you're not really losing meaningful seniority/tenure, and those jobs are a dime a dozen. Teachers who decide they don't want to go teach for whatever reason, have accrued value they would sacrifice. And a restaurant can generally refuse service to anyone for any reason that isn't related to a protected class, no matter what freaky mask protestors think. The same isn't true for schools.

Seems like one condition (in addition to masking and distancing) that public health officials mention for safely reopening schools is ensuring adequate ventilation.   The issue is air changes provided to the space.   The more times per hour the air is replaced in a space the less likely the virus will be able to exist in quantities that can cause infection.

Unfortunately, there lots of places with 30+ kids to a small class, inadequate-to-nonexistent circulating HVAC systems, and windows that open barely or not at all. 

Maybe Big Ass Fans are the answer.

And this is why the rich white suburbanites are all "let's open the schools!" because Winnetka has good HVAC systems
