No sorry to hear that, or I hope your family recovers. And then everyone wonders why our country has gone to shit!
No one on this board has any REAL sympathy, because if you did there would have been replies, even if you don’t like me.
That’s why we’re in the situation we’re in. Because everyone thinks of themselves solely.
But, for me.. I pray to Jesus all of you here on this board and your families, friends, or whoever is important to you be healed in the name of Jesus.
I don’t care if y’all don’t like me. It’s not going to stop me from praying for y’all while we’re going though this VERY hard time.

I don't get irritated from a forum post very often. But this one did it. Fixed the above for you BTW. Of course we hope your family gets better, you didn't make clear their status in the original post. I don't know you from Adam and don't know if you want me to ask how they're doing or any other details of their cases. I think one of my first posts in this thread (or another) was that I hope everyone from the Outpost fam (and their relations/friends) stays safe and dodges this thing. The longer it has gone on the clearer that that hope is not going to be realized. It's going to touch EVERYONE. How about you cut people some slack, it hasn't even been 24 hours since your post yet I have recounted it to friends and family at least 3 times and stated I was happy to hear that your father and daughter did not succumb to the virus. Sh*t everyone wants validation and to hear how sorry everyone feels now a days. You ever think maybe no one acknowledged it because it was scary and hits that much closer to home? And thank you for your thoughts and prayers even though I am atheist/agnostic. I appreciate what prayers mean to those with faith (I was raised Catholic).
As to the politics aspect. It's hard to separate the current crisis from the politics. The 2 parties have been at war for awhile now and we are finally in a position where real damage is being done to everyone because of it. Hell the gov't was shutting down once or twice a year for the last few years. Disgusting. I am an independent and most Republicans and Democrats in office are 2 opposing sides of the same coin. They share the same flaws. I'll make fun of Schumer and Pelosi if it makes everyone feel better.

Thank you. I can't claim credit however. Don't remember where I heard it. "A good memory for quotes combined with a poor memory for attribution can lead to a false sense of originality."
