Those numbers are a bunch of BS! There are many people here dying of natural causes, car accidents, shootings, accidents, etc, but they say its covid so the insurance companies and hospitals can make a huge profit! Just political BS!!!!

Hi, Folks.
The recording practises here in the U.S. - and probably MANY other places around the world - have been 'kwestyunnable' to say the least. The records don't seem to show who died OF kung flu but rather who died WITH it but not necessarily OF it. A person may have had asymptomatic kung flu and died of 3 bullet holes in the chest but, because the kung flu virus was present in their system, it is listed as a kung flu death. Etc.. Etc.. Etc..

While kung flu may be relatively serious in and of itself, the scam industry that has grown up around it, INCLUDING a LOTTTT of political BS, is a FAR bigger threat to health and sanity than kung flu ever was or will be.

Just my 0.02.

It's good that we have 2 experts in certifying the cause and manner of death that are willing and able to provide the information in the last 2 posts. I wonder how many Death Certificates each has filled out, sworn to and filed with the Registrar.

I guess these numbers are part of a high level, well financed, worldwide conspiracy to keep them from having a tractor show this summer.

Just a reminder:

"Still tend to think that there are two sets of rules, one for the good ole boys and one for the rest, I may be wrong?"

Where are the Administrators that are suppose to be monitoring this BB?

What does this crap have to do with the mission/ purpose of the ACMOC?

From an unbiased observer, I see nothing wrong with the posts on this thread. No harm, no foul! I would much rather see a forum that maybe wonders off topic a bit than being strictly run by the PC Police. Covid19 affects different people in different ways and I think we need to respect opinions and not require every one's opinion matches ours.

Hi, D4Jim.
Thank you for stepping in here. I think the posts about the kung flu are relevant 'cos that is why we could not have a show here - or anywhere else for that matter - last year, which disappointed a WHOLE LOTTTA people. I don't want to see another show canned because of some warped political agenda.

Also, personal health and safety are the individual responsibility of EVERY person at such an event - - - - as well as the collective responsibility of EVERYONE at that event.

I hope the PC Police don't jump all over me for mentioning this but my Avatar just changed to my 112 from My D4 and I didn't do a thing!!

Hi, D4Jim.
Yer just cain't trust nobody these days. Apparently that now also extends to computer programs. LOL. Myself, I prefer tracks, although I have spent a fair bit of time on blades over the years.

At least, twitter cain't close my account for saying things like that. LOL.

I'm hearing good things about the recall effort for Conrad Newsom to the point that he eased the lockdown even as cases are increasing here in San Diego County. He is scared. With that, I think the shows this year will be able to be held. I certainly hope so. Interesting the the World Health Org. recently reduced the cycles for the China virus tests which will drop the number of new cases. I also have noted that there are few if any cases of regular flu being recorded. Isn't that amazing, that the COVID issue has wiped out the FLU!

Who knew?

200% AGREED Jann.....not only has COVID wiped out the regular Flu, it's wiped out the OPIOID crisis, which i believe is 100 times more serious, it's killing our youth and young'uns...it doesn't even get mentioned on my news????
