The "Delta Variant" and unvaccinated people

[Raz'r]

The trouble is that there are young people, who would like to get the VAX but their parents won't take them, or allow neighbors to take them. Those are the people I fear for. Adults who are too stupid to get VAXed are risking their own lives, but telling your 13 y/o daughter she can't get VAXed because it's a hoax, or the VAX might be contaminated is just irresponsible.

Having Vaccines be protected ala sexual healthcare would be a good thing.

I think that might be the NATO round the Mini-14 semi-auto Ranch Rifle uses, been a long time since in checked on that....

I have a 20 round clip licensed by the state 6 months before they became illegal.  And it's a short barrel and stainless, so perfect boat protection piece...

I’ve never been that afraid at a Mark rounding.

Ever sailed between Trinidad and Venezuela?  Or between Grenada and Martinique? How about off the east coast of Kenya? Personally, I wouldn't want to have to shoot someone, but I'd feel better knowing that I could, if the situation arose. I do think I'd prefer a shotgun though.

How bout maybe not sailing there?  I think BB is in CT.  LIS is a shit hole but it’s safe to sail.

I've killed several ground hogs (woodchucks, whistle pigs) @ 75-100' in the summer.... But I always hit them in the head.

Where were you aiming?

Anything that eliminates anti-vaxxers and their moran elk is simply Darwin at work AFAIAC.

There's something like 8 Billion of us - we can let the bottom 20% or so skim themselves and we will only be the better for it.

Hearing the stories of anti-mask, anti-vaxx fools on their deathbeds saying "I think I made a mistake" elicited zero sympathy from me.

My son the cop and his colleagues have a saying "Too stupid to live" - usually applied to criminals who fall from 4th floor windows and the like but also apropos for the subject morans as well.

I continue to dispute the commonly held notion that "there is no cure for stupid".  There absolutely IS a cure, but it's usually illegal in most countries.

The Darwin Tax. Death AND taxes, all in one. That’s what I call multitasking. 
 

If President Biden wants to meet that July 4 goal, he should ask President Obama to do a public service statement asking people not to get the virus. Foxy Friends would be vaccinated in a week. 

I think it would be more efficient to have Obama go on TV and tell the anti-vaxxers to get vaccinated, wear masks, DON'T play with gunz, and whatever you do, DON'T eat any bats.  We could raise the IQ of this country in a week or two tops from the immediate death rate among the redneck maga crowds that would ensue.

 

[Burning Man]

Just conversationally, if we were shoot them, what would be the weapons of choice? I'm thinking a .223 would be fine.  We need to factor in some costs too. Ammo's not cheap anymore even at Cheaper than Dirt! 

Even at a $buck a round - it would still be extremely cost effective.  A dogballs to the back of the head however, would be the best bet yet.  Irony and efficiency all at once.

I don't split hairs with a bullshitter. Your comment and my response speak for themselves.

You know you are arguing with someone who is convinced that GW Bush ordered the 9/11 attack just so he could go to the middle east and kill brown skinned people?

The mods should have a warning pinned on his sig line.

DUDE!  You own that rifle and you don't even fracking know what caliber round it fires???  You are too stupid to own that rifle.  Please turn it in to your nearest LEO to have it destroyed.  I'd offer to take it off your hands for cheap...... but it truly is a fairly worthless gun.   :lol:

Friend borrowed my .22 with shorts for Beaver control, but I think the shorts are not good enough for their thick pelts.  

Jayzaz you guys are harsh. You can never control them but helping around the house and cooking nice dinners goes someway towards it.

The Only Person Not Killed Or Hospitalized In This COVID Outbreak Was Vaccinated



A deadly outbreak in Manatee County, Florida, offers a cautionary tale.




 





Two people are dead after a recent COVID-19 outbreak in the IT department of a county government building in Manatee County, Florida ― leaving only one person, who was vaccinated, unscathed.



Of the six known exposures that occurred around the same time, at least four people have reportedly been hospitalized and two have died. One of those people died last week in the hospital, while the other one died at home,

There is no evidence that vaccinated people do not spread the virus.

Come on, it is logically impossible to prove a negative. 

The null hypothesis would be, "Vaccinated peeps spread the virus." 

That statemen can be empirically tested. 

So what is your Eva Dense in support of the null Hyp ??? 

(Hope I got that sciency logic more or less right. It has been a while since I used it.)

Where were you aiming?  

Teeth. They tend to be in the head of animals like this. They make good targets too.

How bout maybe not sailing there?  I think BB is in CT.  LIS is a shit hole but it’s safe to sail.

You've maybe never seen the massive Hatteras, and other flybridge monsters that fly up and down LIS, especially at the eastern end where Billy slips out. These nuts are headed for the Race at full throttle no matter what the wind  or tide.

And I have been thinking along these lines . . 

If a marine tradesman/woman is not smart enough to get the pokes, 

can they be smart enough to work on your boat ?? 

And/OR  . .  if they think the Drumph won the election, will you 

let them re-wire your vessel ??

Waiting for the D variant to come visit Vermin?

Should be quite the ride........

Mini-14 worthless?

I enjoy shooting mine…

Had a Ruger mini-14 stainless steel on one boat It was a handy size, but what PITA it provided when clearing in and out of every friggin port we went,  think it probably added a couple hours to the process every time.

It should be called the Darwin Variant. This thread needs music.
