Sadly, stories like these won't faze the OP and those like him, as sociopaths are incapable of empathy.

He's a sociopath. He's incapable of caring, sadly. Sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry for your loss. Seriously.

However, I had a family member die in an auto accident. I don't other people need to change their lives for my tragic loss. I'm not that narcissistic. My wife and brother almost died of the flu two years ago. If they had died it would have been tragic. But I'm not so narcissistic to think that the world needs to change because of my loss.

I'm sorry you are living in fear. I cared for my wife for the four weeks she was sick and I was never in fear because I know the Lord is in control and for me, as with the Apostle Paul, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

I just lost my father, btw, but he was 90. Nobody lives forever. He had a good life and if the brain tumor had not got him, something else probably would have. I'm 66 and am willing to go any time. I'm old, but I'm also very active and healthy. But then, so was my dad until 9 days before he died.

Again, I'm sorry you lost your sister in law. It is very hard, especially if they are young.

Ummmm, do you ever get your info from actual NEWS sources instead of the vast right-wing echo machine including FOX and Rush? If you did, then you would know that there are indeed hospital emergencies in numerous parts of the nation where the ICU and dedicated COVID beds are nearly maxed out, in some parts of Texas, Arizona, Florida, and California for starters.
Remember back when Trump said that it would "disappear" with warm weather? Then why is it the warm weather states that are getting hammered at the present time?

I don't do Fox or Rush.

BTW, if you are under 25, you are fifty times more likely to drown than to die of CV19. But we're not closing down pools.

As to the first point, it really doesn't matter where in the vast right-wing echo machine you get your "information", it essentially all ends up the same. Lies and hatefulness for the "faithful" to parrot the rest of the day.

As to the second point, it's a totally dumb analogy. I guarantee you that if 125,000 people died from drowning in pools over a period of a few months, those pools would be shut down.
