Weird that you guys are mad at me for joking about killing grandma but don’t seem all that upset about the governor of NY who is directly responsible for the actual death of thousands of grandmas.
Straw man. You haved no idea what upsets us. President Biden may also be upset with Cuomo.

But joking about dead old folks as we watch our loved ones die is pretty messed up. I lost my dad a couple of weeks back. It wasn't funny.

I lost my dad in 1990 and my mom in 2005 and an adopted then “reunited with birth mom” little girl murdered by bio-mom’s boyfriend in 2008, brother-in-law in 2007, mother-in-law in 2005, best friend in 2009 and 5 (five) close friends suicided in 2018.

So I don’t need a lecture about death and jokes.

And how dare you minimize the deaths of 10s of thousands in NY as a straw man.

The straw man was u saying we didn't care about what Cuomo did. I thought it was stupid at the time, and still do.

Fauci has been all over the place. I’m surprised he’s still there.

No masks.
Yes masks.

Hand shakes - never again.
Hooking up on Tinder - Go for it.

Shut everything down until vaccine.
Shutting everything down is worse than the virus.

Close schools.
Open schools.

No sports.
Yes sports.
No sports.

Dropping rates of fatalities is bad.

AIDS is going to infect everyone.
I love to see the lengths people will go to to mischaracterize

fascinating stuff

Essentially "I dealt with sadness so often I'm immune to it and/or think everyone else needs to feel my pain and harden up already"

It not the death; the drain on society that managing these deaths incurrs.

Check your frame.
Yes, the way we deal with death and dying certainly needs to change.

Racking up million dollar medical bills in a most likely failing effort to prolong the life (a few more months of suffering actually) of an elderly person with one foot in the grave on a good day is definitely a drain on society.

What ever happened to good ole’ assisted suicide? Why did it suddenly flip to “save at all cost”?
