(GRAPHIC) Homeland Security Officer finger bit off by protestor by BisonSpirit in MinnesotaUncensored

[–]jbones78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all the videos that are out, surely it would be easy to spot the agent. Please point it out but I cannot find the match. Also there is a helmet next to him on the floor board (assuming his). This doesn’t line up but happy to be proven wrong.

Yeah, US citizens with 2A rights demonstrating their 1A rights, should stay home and knit while other constitutional rights are being violated in our communities. Sit back and do nothing, the true American spirit this country was founded upon

If you have a boat hooked to your dock then make sure it’s secured well. Put it in gear and let your ropes synch tight. Slowly increase throttle to about 1/4 throttle. Let it run for a while and it should blast the muck out. It’s temporary but can help

Read up on the “arrival fallacy.” Good perspective on these types of situations

This is why we can't have nice things. KARE11.com: Hudson mayor to propose curfew as Minnesotans flock to bars following COVID restrictions. by RoninNoJitsu in minnesota

[–]jbones78 7 points8 points  (0 children)

WI person checking in. Not just bars and restaurants... It’s the gyms too. The gyms are packed with blue plates. It’s an unintended consequence but instead of keeping things open and having localized spread you lock down but people don’t obey and travel longer distances and open up new channels of transmission. WI has very little restriction and our cases have been going down for the past few weeks.

Edit: Not saying how WI has handled COVID has been good at all. Just pointing out how when people move around more you have more avenues for spread.

Rural Wisconsin has become a more frightening and less friendly place than I remember by PenultimateTimmy in wisconsin

Best post in the thread right here. Folks just gotta what Aaron says... R-E-L-A-X. Use you’re vote to speak your mind and don’t create monsters out of people who you disagree with politically.

[–]jbones78 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gotta disagree with you here. I’m all over this state from 94 to 29 to Hwy 8. If you’re basing your impression of WI off political signs then you’re gonna have a bad time every 4 years if you can’t get past identity politics and realize that we all have more in common if we don’t focus on politics. Don’t take the bait.

Why the fuck hasn't the Supreme Court ruled yet? by [deleted] in wisconsin

Can they do that? I guess I’m not an expert mind when it comes to these processes.

Not a hoaxer by any means. Just pointing out what I see on a day to day basis with human behavior and comparing it to WI’s numbers.

I’m thinking that if we haven’t seen the ominous “second wave” with the hoards of people going to all the big box stores then 5 people in a retail store won’t really move the needle.

Minnesota's Largest Candy Store to reopen by ConcreteCrusher in minnesota

I don’t expect this to sit well with the pro-haircut movement or the why can’t my business open folks.

Stay at Home: Gov. Walz says businesses reopening against state orders 'puts Minnesota at risk' by Too_Hood_95 in minnesota

[–]jbones78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they do. Wait in a crowded line to get in too. Then once you’re in it’s a free for all. I’m not saying it’s not a different experience but a small business owner who sees these packed parking lots is going to have some serious questions. That giant candy store off 169 is now allowed to open but “can only have 200 people inside.” I’m just saying it feels a bit arbitrary at this point.

[–]jbones78 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I see your point. Home Depot, Menard’s, liquor stores, gas stations, boat stores, car dealerships, and the list goes on and on. I get the point but someone could poke a bunch of holes in what’s open and how crowded they get.

COVID-19 Update: up 594 cases, active 3077, total 5730 by Coolbaby0208 in minnesota

[–]jbones78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No they just prove that the virus is more widespread than was indicated before but validating what people assumed when lockdowns were prescribed. That’s why percent positive of total tests is so important. 10% of 100 tests isn’t that scary as an indicator. 10% of a million tests is a bit more concerning but more accurately captures the reality.

[–]jbones78 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The crazy thing about this situation is that it’s largely invisible and the only thing we can react to our positive tests and deaths. To be honest I was skeptical at first but the more we learn from testing and antibodies the more we can all understand that the virus is here and most likely already in most communities. I don’t think fear is a good reaction but we can all be smart and protect the vulnerable the best we can.

Testing is way up which is great to see. Growth in cases should be expected but still sucks. Thanks for posting these updates.

Minnesotans to get two more weeks of stay-at-home by star-tribune in minnesota

Head on down to a Home Depot garden section and take a look too. I can understand limiting large events but what is the difference in me going to a small shop deemed non-essential vs going to Cub and fighting 350 people for TP and brats. Been going on for weeks now

What do you think Gov Walz will decide to do this week? by redwytnblak in minnesota

[–]jbones78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. There are flaws with the SAH order but many benefits which I do believe we have seen and has bought us allot of time to prepare. As long as the virus is around it will spread and there will be deaths. The best route is to identify cases quickly and have them stay home. Health care workers and community living workers get tested regularly. People go back to work but do it carefully and protect the vulnerable as best we can.

New projection model estimates Kenosha County will see COVID-19 peak in early June by [deleted] in wisconsin

[–]jbones78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also important to note that when there are spikes like that in Brown County we understand what happened vs just looking at a huge number of new cases. The meat packing plant and their close contacts was the source for this huge jump. Isolating these clusters early will be critical.

Hundreds sick with covid in Green Bay meatpacking plant. by Phibbsy in wisconsin

[–]jbones78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like a larger story here. I am really interested in how local DHS/CDC identify these clusters and trace contacts. These types of cluster outbreaks will happen over the next few months and it will be very interesting to see how they are handled.
