Well it did go through the wet market in my opinion, but it originated in the lab looks like. Probably somebody sold a lab animal to the wet market.

I feel quite confident that it was intentionally spread.
With the hatred and violence with which the fucking democrat commies
have fought against the truth coming out, you already know they are covering up something terrible.

And if you aren't vaccinated, well, good luck.  COVID sounds really nasty to me, and very random.

It is really nasty for some people. But it's not totally random. Front line doctors have determined a pattern. Mostly people under 50 with no underlying conditions (especially obesity) seem to do fine. Over 50 and underlying conditions are the ones that get sick. Needing hospitalization is what signals likely death. Early treatment avoids hospitalization and hence death, but one of the biggest blunders in this whole thing was the lack of early treatment.

We were told in the beginning by the CDC and the WHO to stay home and ride it out. Do not come in for treatment because we have no treatment. This was not true. We always had supportive treatments like steroids, quercetin, zinc, hydroxychloroquin, vitamin D (it was determined early on that low D was associated with mortality). Many of these early treatments were debunked because they didn't work in hospitalized patients.

But the doctors actually dealing with patients found they did work, if you gave them early. They were baffled by the expert guidance to do nothing. We treat flu early, we treat any disease that could lead to pulmonary dysfunction early, we don't wait until you are so out of breath you come to the ER in desperation. By then it's most likely too late.

But this reaction was in part due to the recent Ebola scare. So some practitioners were loathe to tell covid patients to come in early, for fear of spreading the disease. In retrospect this turned out to be terrible advice and led to many avoidable deaths.

There are exceptions of course, you can find young apparently healthy people succumb to it, but as a rule, we do know who covid targets and who it generally doesn't hurt much. It's not totally random.

Two elderly women were out driving in a large car. Being short, like many elderly woman are, neither of them could barely see over the dashboard.
As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The top light was red, but they just drove straight on through it.
The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself, “I must be losing it, I could have sworn we just went through a red light.”
After a few more minutes, they came to another intersection, and this time the light was red again, and again they went right through.
This time the woman in the passenger seat was almost sure that the light had been red, but was really concerned that she was losing it.
She was getting really nervous now, and decided to pay very close attention to the road and sat up straighter to see what was going on
At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was definitely red, and they sailed right on through it.
She turned to the other woman and said, “Mildred, did you know we just ran through three red lights in a row! You could have killed us.”
Mildred turned to her and said, “Oh Shit, am I driving?

No doubt since I don't rigidly tout the Conservative party line lots of people will pile on and call me names.  What the fuck ever.

No, we don't call you names because you don't tout the Conservative party lines.  We call you names because you're a douche.

He wants to double the federal budget to $8.2 Trillion dollars by 2031.  But at least he doesn't say mean things in a tweet.

 But, as always, we are a free and open forum and do not censor anyone.

Of course! I’m not asking you to censor yourselves, just expressing my opinion. I don’t actually want any of you to stop being assholes. It’s one reason this forum is so much better than PoA.

But that's just it.  Originalists say we're supposed to read it as written.  They have a point, trying to do telepathy on long dead legislators on why they wrote things they way they did is pure folly.  It is written with a preamble about a militia.

Hey look, I honestly don't give a shit.  I research genetics, not your precious 38 caliber security blankets.  I'll never support anyone taking your weapons aways from you, there are some damn good reasons for folks owning them.  And I will never in my life support restricting someone's rights because it makes someone else feel better.  That's bullshit of the purest nature.  If firearms actually presented a clear danger to the non-firearm  owning public I'd feel differently, but they don't and neither do I. If the US firearm community had the brains Odin gave tardigrades they'd amend the Constitution and get rid of the militia clause. Make it nice and crystal.   The really sad thing is there is critical mass to do this. The firearm community is vast, well funded and emotionally driven.  It is a real tragedy that this hasn't happened already.

We The People are the militia, knucklehead. As the man said, it's self-evident."

I'm afraid I don't even know what that means.  So no one has made a claim of fraud that stood up to a court of law.

The Georgia case is a lawsuit that has stood up and the judge has already agreed the plaintiffs have shown discrepancies exist in the counts. Here’s the rough outline:

It started when several election workers in Fulton county Georgia noted large batches of mail-in ballots without folds on non-standard paper. They signed affidavits to that effect.
A voter integrity group filed a lawsuit asking to see the ballots, as allowed by the Georgia constitution and law.
After weeks of litigation, the judge ordered the county to release a copy of the low-res scanned images of the ballots to the plaintiffs.
After examining the images the plaintiffs reported to the Judge that the count of ballots did not match the count the county officially reported. There were other anomalies such as obvious duplicates.
The judge then agreed to allow the plaintiffs access to the actual ballots so they could be examined directly and scanned at high resolution, but with the restriction that only county employees could handle the ballots and run them through the scanners. Plaintiffs were also to pay county expenses.  The plaintiffs’ forensic experts, a special master assigned by the judge, and a few other state and county officials would be there to over-see the forensic analysis. The main objective is to determine the source of the discrepancies as well as any other evidence of fraud.

Biden won the state by only 11,779 votes and the number of mail-in ballots for Fulton county alone is around 150,000. The plaintiffs claim a ~21% ballot count discrepancy already exists - easily confirmed or refuted. So significant fraud or (charitably) incompetence almost certainly occurred.
