I love how I can make five valid points, back them up with numbers, refute your argument with your own sources, and you just consistently ignore all of that and continue to pound your own misguided point and your one youtube doctor. I'm not going to do what I did last time and spend a lot of time trying to make you understand the researched and cited answers that I've provided to your questions. You don't want those answers. You'd rather play dumb, which is annoying (or sad, if you're not actually playing). When faced with facts, often from your own sources, your fallback is completely ignoring those facts and citing anecdotal information from a biased youtube doctor. So, here's my last comment on here, and I won't respond again, because I already know what your response will be, and it won't have anything to do with what we're talking about: you have a consistent pattern of demanding that others provide you with numbers and proof that your argument is wrong, instead of being willing to provide your own proof that your argument is right. In this case, you "were still waiting for someone to provide you with death numbers for the last ten years". I did this, sourced and cited, and you didn't like that the numbers didn't match your erroneous argument. you intentionally posted a chart that you knew was inaccurate, or were too dumb to notice the bright red box above said chart saying the chart was based on trends, and did not reflect the pandemic (I don't believe you did not see this box). I proved your chart was wrong. you ignored this, and posted your biased youtube politician. So in two debates with me in a row, you've provided erroneous sources, I've proved those sources wrong, you've ignored my legitimate sources (one being your own source), and then you've fallen back to youtube videos from a politcal shill as sources. 400,000 more people died in 2020 in the US than the year before. it's inarguable, even if a biased politician/physician claims differently in an interview.

i admire your tenacity, no matter how misguided and ridiculous it is. over and over you say things like "I'm still waiting for someone to provide me data for death numbers for the last ten years", because you're apparently too lazy to do it yourself, or more likely, you figure if nobody takes the time to do it then you can keep claiming whatever you want. Then I spend 5 whole minutes researching, and provide those numbers, with links to all sources, which are all legitimate. Those numbers don't jive with your argument, so all of a sudden you're capable of finding your own information, because you don't like what mine says. Of course, you completely ignore a giant red box on the top of your source that clearly states that the data is inaccurate. Why? Because it's a chart based on yearly trends, not on concrete numbers, and does not factor in the covid pandemic of the last year and a half. That's literally what the giant red box says. So I copy and paste the giant red box, which states your numbers are wrong, and you counter with youtube videos from one ultra-conservative doctor/politician that is clearly downplaying the severity of the covid pandemic for political reasons (not unlike liberal politicians who exploit it to look even worse than it actually is for political reasons). The funniest part about this is the last time you asked for numbers and they were provided from reputable sources, and you didn't like how badly wrong they proved you, you linked a different youtube video from the same politician/doctor and said the same thing ("Of course there are many doctors with the same story across the country."). This would be no different than you and I having a debate about the immigration problem at the border and me linking videos from Kamala Harris saying there isn't a border problem and pretending like that's a valid rebuttal to you providing me concrete numbers from a valid source showing that vastly more illegal aliens are crossing the border now than 6 months ago. You asked for concrete numbers. Here they are: 2000-2019- on average the US had 19K more deaths a year than the year previous 2020- The US had 405K more deaths than 2019. There's no refuting that, no matter how many politically slanted youtube videos you use as "sources".

It's your source, not mine. It appears that the answer to your question is "yes." Did you purposefully ignore the big red box at the top that said "NOTE: All 2020 and later data are UN projections and DO NOT include any impacts of the COVID-19 virus". Something tells me you saw it and ignored it on purpose, because you wanted some numbers that support your viewpoint.

Literally at the top of your source, above your chart, meaning that this chart is not accurate at all for 2020 and 2021, because those years on the chart are not concrete numbers, but simply projections based on 70 year trends that don't factor in covid: NOTE: All 2020 and later data are UN projections and DO NOT include any impacts of the COVID-19 virus.

you're right. 21k average increase per year in deaths from 2000-2019, 405k increase last year.

I finished my next post with this info likely as you were replying to my first post. I had to combine individual reports from 2019 and 2020 to a chart with deaths from 2000-2018, but the source to all three is listed. There was a SUBSTANTIAL rise in deaths in 2020 from previous years.

This chart has US deaths from 2000 to 2018. It does not have 2019 or 2020. [Hidden Content] This has the total number of US deaths for 2019 (2,854,838). Both 2017 and 2018 had 2.8 million deaths as well. [Hidden Content] This has the total # of deaths for 2020 at the bottom. (3,358,814) [Hidden Content] The first chart shows that in 18 years the average deaths a year increased by about 385,000 total as populations increased, or approximately 21,000 a year. Deaths increased by around 450,000 between 2019 and 2020.

[Hidden Content] January–December 2020%2C the,(91.5 deaths per 100%2C000). "During January–December 2020, the estimated 2020 age-adjusted death rate increased for the first time since 2017, with an increase of 15.9% compared with 2019, from 715.2 to 828.7 deaths per 100,000 population. COVID-19 was the underlying or a contributing cause of 377,883 deaths (91.5 deaths per 100,000)" [Hidden Content] Of the approximately 3,358,814 deaths that occurred in the U.S. last year, SARS-CoV-2 accounted for approximately 375,000, with only heart disease and cancer claiming a higher mortality rates, Farida B. Ahmad, MPH, of the National Center for Health Statistics at the CDC, and colleagues wrote in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report — and, they added, Covid-19 replaced suicide as one of 2020’s top 10 leading causes of death. [Hidden Content] There's one for you from your favorite source written 9/1/20, showing that at that time there had already been 200,000 excess deaths in the US for 2020.

Friendswood advances 2-0

Congrats HH, and coach McD!

Let’s go!

Salado wins 2-1. Great season, hawks!

Salado takes a 2-1 lead with about 14:30 left

1-1 with about 30 min left

Hawks lead 1-0 at the half! Had a couple of great chances to make it 2, but the salado keeper made a good save on a breakaway, and the hawks hit the crossbar from a long way out. The second half will be tougher, as salado will have a pretty strong wind at their back

HJ playing very well! Up 1-0 about 20 minutes into the game!

Extremely difficult matchup for the hawks. While Salado's 19-6-3 record doesn't look quite as scary as Lumberton's did, their schedule was about 5X as tough as Lumberton's, and they've beaten a lot of very good teams. They beat undefeated Lorena last game to advance. Their 6 losses are to two 5A playoff teams and three 4A teams that are all still alive in the 4A playoffs (and have a combined record of 71-8-2). The hawks will have to play defense just as well as they did against Lumberton if they're going to have a shot at advancing.

It's your choice. I'm glad to know that the length of effectiveness of these shots is still growing.

You know there are some people out there who still believe a made up, disproven study that vaccines cause autism.

Tough opponent for Huffman, but it's a game they can win, although they're a slight underdog. Royal beat Huffman in a pre-district matchup this season 3-1, but Huffman had a bunch of players out due to grades. On a positive, if they can find a way past Royal, Huffman is guaranteed a matchup against a team they've already been able to beat for a shot to go to state.

not sure. they were 1-10 last year and outscored 569 to 183. I bet he gets a raise, though.

Stuff like this really bothers me. Intentional, dishonest reporting is a fraud on the American people. Unfortunately, these days mainstream media gets a pass to do and say whatever they want.

“I paid $15,000,” said Sills, handcuffed. “You can’t trespass me if I paid $15,000.”

certainly didn't hurt. media doesn't dwell on them near as much now. it was pretty amazing to see how differently the media reported the exact same news immediately before and after Biden was sworn in.
