I've had enough of this pointless conversation for now and will start focusing on tonight's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine destroying an entire economy for years to come, letting people go from their jobs, causing extreme poverty, drug use and homeless issues and causing mass divisiveness over a virus that kills people at the average age of 82....life expectancy age on the dot Most people taking up hospital beds were obese. Am I allowed to be mad at people who knowingly destroyed their bodies over the years and then took up resources when a pandemic came along? Because it was very selfish. It's literally the least one can do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd that you derived that sentiment from a post that simply showed stats from Canada.ca and then a breakdown of the deaths as related to the question asked. Also, not sure what wearing a mask or getting vaccinated had to do with my post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even sticking up for the guy it's just weird how dramatic and completely off base some here are. Literally all he did was post some stats lol, he didn't say or do anything remotely close to what you are accusing him of.
