Arkansas inflicts child abuse on its school children

For questions on Covid and masks I wanted to double check myh facts. And it appears that the virus usually leaves the body in water droplets. If you think about it both single cellular life and viruses tend to need a liquid environment to survive. In other words a naked virus will not survive long. According to this article from the CDC it will leave the body in droplet form before finding a new host:

Types of Spread
COVID-19 is spread in three main ways

  1. Breathing in air when close to an infected person who is exhaling small droplets and particles that contain the virus.
  2. Having these small droplets and particles that contain virus land on the eyes, nose, or mouth, especially through splashes and sprays like a cough or sneeze.
  3. Touching eyes, nose, or mouth with hands that have the virus on them.

COVID-19 and Your Health

A mask will either catch these droplets or greatly reduce their velocity when they leave the body. Gravity then takes it toll. In other words, the droplets fall down.

I need to emphasize this for mask deniers. An infected person can easily be infected and spreading the disease for five days before he or she feels sick. That is why this disease has been so hard to control. Most people are responsible. They will stay home if they know that they are sick. Wearing a mask is not to protect you from others. It is to protect others from you.

It is what Jesus would do.

Jesus used spit and dirt, put it on peoples eyes to heal them. He healed all those that were brought to Him. But you’re correct in being conscious and protecting other people so they don’t get sick. Let’s do that. I still don’t need to wear a mask all the time to accomplish that.

Yes, but Jesus was relatively ignorant.

If Jesus knew that something was harmful to others do you think that he would do that?

And no one said that you had to wear a mask all of the time. I don't do that. Why should you?

At home, you do not need a mask.

If you are outside and there are not a lot of people around you, you do not need a mask.

But if you are in a grocery story were you will be relatively close to others, you need a mask. If you are entering a restaurant and walking around. You need a mask.

The six foot distance is a minimum safety precaution. You could be sick even if you feel fine. You will not know for an average five days after exposure. When we wear masks it is to protect others from ourselves. It is not to protect us from others.

I guess if I live in an area that has no mask mandate and opened up then not wearing one at all.

Is Biden continuing with the border wall now? Good for him, we should all work together to solve problems instead of fighting each other.
I don't think so. Some things can't be stopped in mid-build. But the wall was largely a waste of money. The border is not that big of a problem and It is unlikely to stop anyone that really wants to get here. It was mostly just a shrine for Trump.

Don’t agree that the border isn’t a big problem, it has been and that’s a denial on your part. Proper barriers do work otherwise they wouldn’t have them around their homes and they wouldn’t have fenced in DC. That really wasn’t the issue for the comment, it was maybe politicians can take good ideas from both sides and not dismiss them just because they didn’t think of it. By the way, if I was living down there I’d like a good barrier if illegal immigrants or other people were coming into my property or town without authorization.

No, don't accuse others of your flaws. Both the Democrats and Republicans rely on illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrants tend to work for small businesses. Those are owned mostly by Republicans.

Think about it. There was one easy step that Trump could have taken that would all but end illegal immigrants. Why didn't he do it?
 
It is factual. It is even true if you believe the Jesus myth. The Bible tells us that he was ignorant.
“But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭3:14-18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Bible says you are and a veil has blinded you

What would end illegal immigration is change the laws that reward them and totally wrong to hire illegal immigrants. Need a permit for that

That does not help you.

Try again.

Why does reality bother you so much?

Why didn't you admit that you do not understand?

Just in case you didn't know: Whenever a business hires anyone they are supposed to ask for proper identification. That includes a social security card. If there is any doubt one can and should check them out using everify:

Hues of Hokkaido

All that is needed is to force businesses to use everify if they want to deduct what they pay those employees as part of their costs. If you own a business wages are deducted from your income. They do not count towards profit. If the wages of illegals could not be deducted businesses would avoid those people like the plague.

Jesus and the Bible bother you, your comment about Jesus was just stupid.
I never said that Jesus was stupid. And no, the Bible, as you use it, is a joke. When you post verses that you do not understand in an attempt to insult others you only make yourself look foolish.

Read my post again. Your inability to understand it does not make it stupid.

Sanctuary cities, benefits for illegals, if your kid is born in the US they are automatic citizens, getting rid of ICE, enabling criminals who are illegals to stay, catch and release
