    Which is all I have asked one to do. I am just not playing fact checker for the whole forum. I only read the links I comment on in general and assume erroneous ones will be sniffed out.

    It hasn't been one person man. Multiple people did and have piled on. I deleted two peoples posts just last night. Sigh.
    This should be a united response. No personal insults aimed at someone you disagree with, especially when that person has been playing NICE!

    Is the language that Gator95 has been using to mock others acceptable on this board?

    I mean cmon Phil. That has worked back and forth, but it still isnt in the same ballpark as this other stuff aimed at someone else. You cant be defending this?

    Contention is the backbone of TooHot...thus the name. We have been quite lenient, but this personal stuff is a new low to me.

    I'm trying to figure out where the line is. Maybe the mods are doing a great job of deleting things that are over the line, but I personally haven't seen anything stronger than what Gator95 is regularly dishing out posted here.

    Is the language that Gator95 has been using to mock others acceptable on this board?

    I'm not making stuff up. I'm linking results to large studies, like this one. Here's their opening statement:

    The risk of acute myocarditis associated with COVID-19 mRNA vaccination has garnered intense (social) media attention. However, myocarditis after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination is rare and usually resolves within days or weeks. Moreover, the risks of hospitalization and death associated with COVID-19 are greater than the risk associated with COVID-19 vaccination. Therefore, COVID-19 vaccination should be recommended in adolescents and adults.
    Or like this, from the American Heart Association:

    Most adolescents and young adults with suspected myocarditis following a COVID-19 vaccination experience mild symptoms and rapid clinical recovery, though many had evidence of continued heart inflammation, according to a new study. Study authors said fast ventricular rhythms and the need for medications to increase blood pressure were uncommon; no patients died or needed mechanical support for circulation as a result of the condition. [emphasis added]
    The results are clear, and all studies have shown the same thing. The risk of myocarditis from the vaccine is lower than the risk of getting myocarditis from the virus. The outcomes are also better, as there have been no deaths associated with myocarditis from the vaccine, but multiple cases of MIS-C from COVID caused myocarditis which can be, and has been fatal.

    The same case where the Sonoma County Officials completely denounced any correlation between the vaccine and cause of death? Don't like the first link, here's another.

    The kid died of a heart attack, and yes, it happened 2 days after the 2nd dose. But the Coroner determined the vaccine could not have caused the damage that he saw to the heart. And while the kid seemed otherwise healthy, there are those with underlying health conditions that don't have outward signs. Again, I bring up Pistol Pete Maravich, who also had a heart condition, and died at 40 while playing a pick-up game. Basically had only half a working heart, and had an Hall-of-Fame NBA career, all while never knowing his heart was a ticking time bomb.

    Its just an amazing coincidence I guess...

    Yeah, lots of kids die from heart attacks...

    Now you are are comparing a 40 year old and a kid?

    Reaching I see.

    So you are saying a random site called “RepublicanDaily”, featuring Pillowguy advertising, is peddling bad information on the internet? I’m shocked. Just shocking that would the case.

    Fine. How about an 18-year old, star prep football player? McCollins Umeh was supposed to be Mike Stoops' first defensive star recruit. During an early morning workout, he just dropped, heart stopped, and never recovered. Sad, but true.

    Maybe you're more familiar with Hank Gathers? One of the top 25 NCAA basketball scorers of all time. He was even being treated for his heart condition, but still collapsed during a game, and never recovered.

    Two young, athletic young men, who died of heart attacks, decades before COVID was a thing. Tragic. But it happens.

    Yes it happens. Doesn't happen often in their sleep. Let's do a ton of research on this. BUT, lets research those who died from "covid". I posted a lot of "covid deaths" that had nothing to do with covid yet are counted by you and others to scare others into getting their kids vaccinated. IF only you tried this hard to show that healthy kids don't die from covid. But that won't ever happen.
