This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.
The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Australia is now shooting impounded puppies to prevent volunteers at an animal shelter from traveling to rescue them.
https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/rescue-dogs-shot-dead-by-nsw-council-due-to-covid-19-restrictions-20210821-p58ksh.htm

If your killing dogs, puppies, and other animals to prevent people from taking care of them you cross a line of morality that should never be crossed.  Covid is not even close as deadly as the fear mongering media made it out to be.  Those animals had no reason to be killed.  Zero reason for this senseless slaughter.  People shouldn't abuse animals.

UK data keeps on getting worse (for the jabbed). See here (Table 5 again): https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1009243/Technical_Briefing_20.pdf

Of 742 deaths from the "Delta variant", 402 were "fully vaccinated", another 79 had been jabbed once, only 253 unvaccinated. Worse still, the vaccinated were 47,008 "cases" and the unvaccinated 151,054 "cases". Three times as many "cases" in the unjabbed, yet fewer deaths.

Interesting.

While ~66% of the UK pop is <50, they are over-represented (compared to pop >= 50) in terms of cases (~8x), emergency care visits (~4x), and hospital admissions (~2x). But in terms of deaths, it is the >= 50 pop that is over-represented (~9x). So, in terms of deaths, Delta is similar to the original virus. And, apparently, being old is a larger driver towards death than the "jab" is a driver away from death.

They’re a strange bunch. I most certainly will never participate in any type of aid should something similar to 2020’s brushfires happen again. It takes a real monster to kill a defenseless animal.

  Weapons of Mass Destruction.  Spreading Democracy.  Not quite sure how it is hard to understand that a federal government that overtly lies and deceives the public can not understand how it seems to be running short on good will.

Except they lied to the people during the years other vaccines were approved and you (I think?) were cool with those vaccines? Shoot we lied ABOUT vaccines (Tuskegee experiment) and you were (I think?) cool with those vaccines.

  You might want to stop thinking then.   I

“And you know what? I believe totally in your freedoms. I do. You’ve got to do what you have to do,” Trump said. “But, I recommend: take the vaccines. I did it. It’s good. Take the vaccines.” - Trump. Yesterday.

Clearly the vaccine has different impacts based on your political affiliation.  For registered Democrats, affiliated Independents and more liberal political parties it saves lives and reduces the severity of the disease.  For Republicans and conservatives in general, it targets their reproductive organs, shrinking their testicles/ovaries and making them infertile. 

As long as people in rural areas agree not to come into the city where Democrats are shedding virus everywhere because of their vaccine, I think we'll all be fine. 

I mean, except for the people who die needlessly, but that'll just exacerbate the ongoing shift of populations from rural to urban areas.

   This sounds exactly like something a person who only knows what people think from the internet would say.   I suggest you take a walk around and talk to a few people.  I think you are going to find a *shocking* population of always democrats dodging the poke, and a similarly *shocking* number of republicans who got the poke.   

   I think your smug ass is going to feel some kind of way if those rural people decide to not send any food into those cities as well.  Or if those rural truck drivers stop driving to cities in general.  Get your head out of your ass.

Wait now, this board tends to encourage ignoring any real world experiences as being anecdotes (at best)...

Are you suggesting otherwise?

   I think too much internet is bleeding into meat space, but there is still a real world out there, and people spouting off about who they think is or is not vaccinated and using CNN talking points might need to catch a little bit of time away from artificial light.

Not cool! https://www.businessinsider.com/florida-doctors-walkout-unvaccinated-patients-surge-2021-8

75 Florida doctors stage a walk out!? Just because they actually get to work. Not enough interns, nurses!? Now the Kings and Queens get to actually do some work and they’re staging a walk out. Shows a lot of people become doctors because mom, dad and ben. No sense of duty, no real purpose.

  Seems a little bit like the sort of thing that can endanger a medical license.  If not wanting to work on patients who, in the doctor's view take health risks is a no...Then I guess none of those doctors work on fat people, drug addicts, alcoholics, etc..

My sister in law investigates for the State medical board when a doctor has a serious complaint against him/her.  Some of the shit I have heard the past year would make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.   I want to think most doctors go into the profession to be caretakers and help those in need.  But from her, and from what I hear from a nurse friend....seems a few sociopaths make the cut as well.

Ooops, now deaths as well as infections are starting to rise in "fully vaccinated" Israel. Almost as though the jabs don't work, or worse still make people even more ill.

If only people had warned of that before everyone rushed out to try to vaccinate their way out of this...
