COVID-19 Not Worse Than Bad Flu Season – Government Measures Will Cause More D

After Covid, Trump supporters will forever be remembered as the deranged group of ignorant citizens who spent the entire pandemic trying to convince others that the entire thing was being overblown, even while people died in the tens of thousands. And we won't let them forget it.

Seeing as the only ones who attempted and failed to say that Trump supporters were calling the Covid a hoax, was the anti-trump camp. I don't think anyone is really going to take your opinion on what's going on here, any more serious than anything else that you could probably try to throw your own two cents in on.

So just keep this idiotic hyperbole to yourself from now on, thanks.

Yes, being hit with teargas when teargas wasn't even used... color me surprised that this is just another lie of many making the rounds today.

So are you going to try and tell us that the protestors were completely peaceful and did nothing wrong?

Spare me...

Tear gas was used, unless you want to argue with the CDC

Looks like the Washington post needs to fire whoever is supposed to proof-check this stuff, because the articles own citation says otherwise.

officers then employed the use of smoke canisters and pepper balls. No tear gas was used by USPP officers or other assisting law enforcement partners to close the area at Lafayette Park. Subsequently, the fence was installed.

Wrong again

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “Riot control agents (sometimes referred to as “tear gas”) are chemical compounds that temporarily make people unable to function by causing irritation to the eyes, mouth, throat, lungs, and skin.”

And, according to the CDC, “several different compounds” fall under this definition, and are employed by security forces, including military and police, in riot control situations.

Among others, they include chloroacetophenone (CN), more commonly referred to as “mace,” or pepper sprays — in other words, the compound that was deployed in Lafayette Square — and chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile (CS), “one of the most commonly used tear gases in the world,” according to an article in the British Medical Journal.

Barr personally ordered removal of protesters near White House, leading to use of force against largely peaceful crowd

These compounds are all typically referred to as “tear gas” because their most prominent effect is to bring on tears.

Riot control agents are designed to cause irritation within seconds of exposure, making the exposed want to flee the scene. And indeed, toxicologists advise that getting away from the gas is the best and first thing to do to mediate the impact.

The most common symptoms of exposure, according to the CDC can include excessive tearing and burning of the eyes, a runny nose, a burning mouth, chest tightness, coughing, skin burns, nausea and vomiting.

Given that these pepperballs have the effects the CDC described, they are tear gas. It looks like the police need to understand their weaponry better.

Your idiot leader called the pandemic a hoax. You're just following in his footsteps like a good little cultist. And as you can see from this thread, it hasn't stopped. It will not be forgotten.

No you're not. Unless you're in Germany, then maybe.

So how does the deaths in U.S. from the Coronavirus compare to the normal 2.6 million who die every year?

So you're just using a cheap workaround of semantics, to make it seem as though you're telling the truth.
Well, it's good that we could clear that up.

Once again, I'll explain it so this good little Epstein loyalist can understand.

He never called Covid a hoax. Had he actually done so, then you'd be able to supply some form of citation showing that he did. Instead of just crying about it, like the lot of you always do. His comment was directly related to what the democrats were doing, not Covid itself. As we were already informed about the virus well before even the impeachment hearing was finished.

If you want to keep lying to me, then you're free to do so somewhere else. Because I'm done playing this stupid little game with the likes of you.

Nope, I am telling it like it is.

Then you're free to keep spinning that all you like. Because I can tell you that being hit with a pepper round, is nothing compared to actually being hit with teargas and seeing as even the officials of these bodies declare that no teargas was used.

You're pretty much **** out of luck, if you are just going to continue trying to use weasel words.

My specification comes from the CDC :shrug:

They will have far more authority on the manner than some random internet dude ever will.

Once again, that's only something that I've been told has happened. I've never been shown evidence, nor has it been supplied when I've requested it.

But I'll happily request it again, if you can supply it.

Actually, this will be remembered as another failed coup attempt by the Marxist left. Did you notice after every failed coup attempt, they move on to the next one? Now we're on to the Soros-financed fake riots. The failed virus coup attempt is in the rearview mirror. Have you been paying attention?
