Crime, Safety, and the Police

[Jackie888]

Sometimes you see thousands birds or fish die at once from disease. One would think at some point, it will be the same with humans. Maybe its 3000 years away, much more likely is a nuclear war breaks out within 300 years anyway. What would be the odds of avoiding a nuclear war for even 150 years? Not very good.

Take it easy on the booz okay?

I share your frustration and have similar concerns but viruses change and this is something we have never dealt with before. Even the experts are stumped but IMO they have a better idea how to handle this over regular folks like myself. The virus won't change for our benefit. For once in our lifetimes (maybe more for some) we are not in control. We go with the flow and adapt. That is how man has responded to other challenges over the span of civilization. This is textbook type material that people will be reading about for years to come. We are making history right now whether you like it or not. I do believe things will get even more F'd up before they get better.

A true test of discipline, strategy, and common sense.

I agree with everything you said. I don't have answers. All I have is complaints. LOL No doubt variants are a monumental challenge. But my frustration is that basically 2 years in, the experts are no closer to solving this. At some point, we're watching years just waste away.

You mention being in control. I think that's the hardest part for us. My own opinion is that's why the experts have sold us on masks. I don't think a piece of cotton is terribly effective. Surely it provides some protection. But I think there is a large element of feeling like a mask gives us some level of being in control when in fact, we're just not. Depressing talk. Can't wait to get back to HK to forget about this for a week.

Breakthrough cases are a real thing, for sure.

What I don't understand anymore is why do we continue to follow advice from people that have been consistently wrong. Granted, this is unprecedented. However, think about what we've been told.

Masks are pointless. No, wait. Masks work: well, everywhere I went last year, mask compliance was really good at the height of new infections.

Vaccines work: Well, clearly we know now that they don't last. Back to masks even for vaccinated.

We're only at risk indoors: many of these outbreaks are from outdoor events. See p-town outbreak.

Shut down the schools. Open them because it doesn't infect children as much. Just kidding, now we might be closing them again.

Covid's bad. The lambda variant is worse. The gamma variant is worse. Now Delta is worse. And just because we have to up the fear mongering, today I learn about 'delta plus'.

It is endless fear mongering. Our president and governors are on TV telling us "you will die". What scares me is how do you escalate from there? Hold tight, we'll find out. They have found how powerful fear is. And that's not to say this virus is a joke. But I am done listening to these so called experts that, 2 years later, are still at square 1. And that's why I'm heading to the zona and what happens, happens.

OMG, I just checked YouTube and for sure delta plus. I'm waiting for Echo and Foxtrot. Lock everything down.

Among the newly infected people in Provincetown, Mass over July 4th weekend, the CDC found 75% had been vaccinated.

How do you explain that fact?

Obviously, I take precautions to limit any damage I can do to others. But at this point, I don't think we even know what precautions to take.

Have not change.

Wear a mask when indoors.

Efficacy is 95% regardless of variant.

Anyone laugh at you, give them the middle finger to say Hello.

[Jackie888]

Jackie888,

Did not hear you got Covid.

When and where did you get it?

How long were you out?

Sometime early 2020, maybe January. Unsure when or where I got it because covid testing and came back negative. Only detected it after I took an anti body test since I was volunteered to do a vaccination trial in the Summer of 2020. My only symptoms I recalled were coughing and brain fog that I just attributed to being absent minded. If I had to place it where I caught it, it would in the fitness center where I worked out at in SD. I don't think I was in the Zona Norte all of 2020. And I did not return until sometime in March 2021 after getting fully vaccinated. So yeah, I am one of those silent carriers since my symptoms were almost non-detectable. Some people laugh when they see me wear a mask. I am super immune being fully vaccinated and having natural antibodies. I ain't wearing a mask for me. I wore a mask so that I don't kill off the people that laugh at me.

I could not agree more. I'll bet I spent 40 or more nights up on the 7th floor through the worst of COVID. I don't say that to brag. It was pretty stupid but, I can fill a book with my stupidity in Tijuana. My point though: I caught COVID. I know with certainty which girl I picked it up from. But it was not bad for me. And after I got the all clear, I was right back at it. So I might still have some natural immunity. I was vaccinated and I am still within my 6 months. So I figure I've done all I can. If I get it again, I was meant to have it. This sounds foolish even as I type it but if I'm going to kick the bucket from a night of partying in Tijuana, well, it's better than an unexpected car accident. Who knows what the future holds. We've got to maximize the time we have. Obviously, I take precautions to limit any damage I can do to others. But at this point, I don't think we even know what precautions to take. COVID has already stolen so much from us for 1.5 years. Am I foolish or reckless? Maybe. But you can't take it with you when you go. Just my opinion and completely respect the decisions of others to not follow my idiocy.

I don't worry about covid any more. I don't have kids or pets and dr Fauci and his scientists determined inventing a covid that could spread to people was a good idea, even if it escaped the lab. So trust dr Fauci. The consequences are worth the discovery. It's what he said. At any rate, I hope they invent a test to see who has already gotten covid 8 n past because seriously if I didn't get it by now, 200 hours on public transportation, 100 hours in the clubs, 600 hours in stores. Than it must be my lucky year.

We have new variants of SARS CoV-2 because we (meaning you) allow it to survive and mutate. We didn't have that problem with the similar SARS CoV-1 because we crushed it out of existance with public health measures. Remember that saying, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"? Well, in this case it should be, "What doesn't kill you this time f!cking mutates and comes back to try and kill you again!

Where did you get your degree in epidemiology? By that logic all of humanity would have been killed off by the first virus to come down the pike. We should all be dead from smallpox, or perhaps influenza.

[John Clayton]

I'm with you. Live and let live. Who knows if we will have new variants every year like the flu? ...

What I hope doesn't happen again is the virtue signaling from spring into summer 2020 when some posters were shaming guys on the Tijuana threads for going down to pound some pussy. They know who they are and how off the rails they were with the COVID doom porn railing against guys for still making trips to Tijuana.

I'm with you. Live and let live. Who knows if we will have new variants every year like the flu? Echo variant next once the booster comes out? My brother is big pharm so sure he is going to get nice holiday bonus. Stay home, obey, put on this leash. Haha next thing they will have us get tattoos / chips like the Jews and tell us we need to go to some interment camps like the Japanese since we are enjoying too much freedom. I wonder how the USA Would have been formed if a bunch of farmers and villagers kept with the status quo. Yes master, I'll keep harvesting your fields and keep paying you these exorbitant tax rates. It kind of feels like CA trying to take half of everything you make. Keep voting for these people that come up with these policies and guess what you get $600. I can't believe how big of an asset bubble they have created. People made 25%+ on their real estate if you live in SoCal and investment portfolios returned even higher returns. It isn't sustainable, but I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

Also this an international sex guide. We take more risks as punters traveling internationally to chase poon than the USA sex guide where you can just find a glory hole in the neighborhood.

Good for you man! The chicas are waiting for you as well. Who knows what the real numbers are for this virus? Do you believe Russia, China, and other countries are actually providing accurate data? Also a news article said the C19 tests couldn't detect difference between C19 and flu. I'm sure Baja has higher rates, but who is accurately testing everyone? Live your life and enjoy the chicas 😜.
