No, WISH-TV, Indiana is what’s known as a free state.

WISH-TV 8 (what used to be the local CBS affiliate until it switched to WTTV-4) publishes this screed entitled

Study shows Indiana ranks as least safe state during pandemic

I won’t bother to quote any of it, but the fact is, what this really means is Indiana is one of the free states who told the fearmongers to go fuck themselves.

We’d be more free and probably more safe if we had a governor like Florida’s, but until we get rid of Dog Daddy Holcomb, we’re sort of fucked in that department.

At any rate, I’m not vaxxed, I don’t wear masks, I don’t socially-distance, and I haven’t been sick since November 2019, when I assume I had an early round of WuFlu before anyone knew what it was.

So fuck you, WISH-TV 8, and fuck the pollster I never fucking heard of before, too.  This is clearly a skewed political survey meant to make blue states look better than red states, if you get into the methodology and the numbers used.  And it probably uses the death numbers that are already suspect because of the “died from/died with COVID-19″ distinction, along with the fact that the PCR tests couldn’t tell the difference between the flu and the WuFlu, so every positive test was presumed to be WuFlu.

Vaccination? I think NOT.

People with brains that aren’t completely full of mush have been saying this all along, but here we are almost two years in (and indeed, just over two years since I had a two-week bout of something that, if it wasn’t the SARS-CoV-2 virus, was something pretty damn near like it) and this news still can’t seem to get mainstream press.

If You’ve Had COVID You’re Likely Protected for Life

If you’ve had COVID-19, even a mild case, major congratulations to you as you’ve more than likely got long-term immunity, according to a team of researchers from Washington University School of Medicine. In fact, you’re likely to be immune for life, as is the case with recovery from many infectious agents — once you’ve had the disease and recovered, you’re immune, most likely for life.

Let’s Go Brandon!

IT’S A FUCKING COLD.  THEY ARE LYING TO YOU BECAUSE THEY WANT TO CONTROL YOU.  AND THEY’RE SUCCEEDING, YOU FUCKING FOOLS.

Fuck Joe Biden, and the Ron Klain he rode in on.

The truth you claim to be true, Ron Klain, is actually a bald-faced lie.

Ron Klain wouldn’t know the truth if it kicked him in the face.  Which would improve his looks, by the way.  Not by much, but still.

I’m ashamed to say this cocksucker went to my high school.

And whoever is writing tweets for his boss is also a dick with no compassion whatsoever.

These Communists need to be removed immediately from positions of power and never allowed to hold jobs in the public service again…except maybe as dog catchers or outhouse cleaners.  Nah, just outhouse cleaners, dogs haven’t done anything to deserve this sort of treatment.

Yes, motherfuckers, they knew this in 2005.

Anthony Fauci is a fucking quack who should have been fired when he lied about AIDS transmission and failed to develop a vaccine for HIV — which was his fucking mandate back in the late 1980s when he took the job he still holds to this day.

But let’s talk about one of his biggest lies that probably killed thousands of people during our most recent SARS episode — that Hydroxychlorquine had no affect on SARS-CoV-2 infections and anyone who said so was a fucking liar.

Look in the mirror much, Tony?  You fucking incompetent asshole.  Because THIS ARTICLE WAS ON THE NIH WEBSITE ALL ALONG.

Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread

Abstract

Background

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is caused by a newly discovered coronavirus (SARS-CoV). No effective prophylactic or post-exposure therapy is currently available.

Results

We report, however, that chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS-CoV infection of primate cells. These inhibitory effects are observed when the cells are treated with the drug either before or after exposure to the virus, suggesting both prophylactic and therapeutic advantage. In addition to the well-known functions of chloroquine such as elevations of endosomal pH, the drug appears to interfere with terminal glycosylation of the cellular receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2. This may negatively influence the virus-receptor binding and abrogate the infection, with further ramifications by the elevation of vesicular pH, resulting in the inhibition of infection and spread of SARS CoV at clinically admissible concentrations.

Conclusion

Chloroquine is effective in preventing the spread of SARS CoV in cell culture. Favorable inhibition of virus spread was observed when the cells were either treated with chloroquine prior to or after SARS CoV infection. In addition, the indirect immunofluorescence assay described herein represents a simple and rapid method for screening SARS-CoV antiviral compounds.

No, Abdul, this is bullshit.

This is probably at least one reason why I don’t identify as a Republican. Because I don’t support pot legalization.

Yes, yes, I know, War on Drugs huge waste of time and treasure, blah blah blah. I myself think the administration of Narcan should be outlawed for the meth heads and other idiots who OD on things like fentanyl. Clearly people who do that kind of shit have a death wish, so grant it and let a Judge in a higher court deal with them. But, that has nothing to do with pot.

On the other hand, pot is as much of a cancer on society as anything else that clouds the mind. And no matter what the “experts” say, that shit will cause actual cancer, just like the cigarettes the same group of busies have been trying to outlaw for the past fifty years.

And you can also bet that if any government is eager to legalize any kind of recreational drug, it’s because they want the populace sedated and easy to manipulate.

On the gripping hand, I did read the article, and I looked at the internals they quoted, which do not match up with Abdul’s first-line assertion that “There’s a new poll out that shows a majority of Republicans in Indiana favor some form of legalization when it comes to marijuana.”  But see for yourself:

The results of the BK Strategies poll were pretty similar to one conducted by Indy Politics back in August. We surveyed more than 400 Marion County voters and found two-thirds of voters (65%) support the full legalization of recreational and medicinal use of marijuana, with an additional 20% supporting the legalization of marijuana strictly for medicinal use.

76% of Democrats, 62% of Independents, and 51% of Republicans support full legalization, with an additional 17% of Democrats and Independents, and 26% of Republicans supporting the legalization of marijuana for medicinal use.

The BK Strategies poll surveyed 600 likely general election voters with an additional oversample of 100 Republican voters and had a margin of error of +/-4.0 %. The Republican-specific date had a margin of error of +/-5.3%.”

You surveyed MARION COUNTY REPUBLICAN VOTERS? Shit, dawg — Marion County voters are more likely to vote RINO than true conservative, or not vote at all, which is at least part of how we got the Big Dem Moron In Charge on the 25th floor of the City-County Building. (A lousy GOP candidate offered up for sacrifice was another.) I’m hardly surprised MARION COUNTY REPUBLICAN VOTERS are in favor of pot legalization.

Why don’t you do a statewide poll and see what Indiana GOP voters think?
