Here is your homework for the day. Lookup "fallacy," "analogy," "comparison," "hypothetical," and "scenario" and explain the differences in meaning between the words. You never answered my question, in part, probably because you did not understand it. Pro tip: do not use words in your posts that you do not understand. Before you know it, you will be able to answer questions like the one below using words that you understand.(02-12-2021, 12:13 PM)Hoot Gibson Wrote:Weak fallacy on so many levels.(02-12-2021, 10:54 AM)Cardfan1 Wrote:If nobody ever left their homes again, the virus would cease to be a threat and gun violence would eventually disappear as well.

Democrats cannot just stand by and see their overtaxed citizens pack up and move to red states, where people are working and enjoying life.Let them come. Maybe Kentucky will turn purple. Georgia already is. Texas will turn next cycle.
Hooter, keep wishing for the blue state exodus; you lose your EC advantage.
Nevertheless, an ignorant point when President Biden is trying to do something the Orange Apocalypse didn't: save Americans. I read yesterday Trump's failures cost us 40% more deaths. Today that would be 97,000 people: 32 9/11s, 38 Pearl Harbors, and 4th on the list of wars. Total Incompetence.

Your false comparison ignores the fact that the United States under the Trump Administration ---in a demand of freedom (or money)-- has killed half a million people, and doomed who know how many to a painful, shortened life. It's not close to the rest of the world.
This administration deserves a shot at trying to slow the spread. If we have to shutter travel for a few weeks, so be it. We can't start all over with these variants and be sitting in the same spot we are now starting 2022.
Technically, even your false comparison isn't true because, sadly, Americans will still shoot themselves and their loved ones.
If nobody ever left their homes again, the virus would cease to be a threat and gun violence would eventually disappear as well. Would you support such a law, Comrade Cardfan, if China Joe supported it?
Gun Violence and Covid is a weak analogy. You get that right?
Also, I am fully aware of the definition of all of those terms, and the usage of each. Hooter, you are far from a pro. For one, you obviously don't understand that fallacies undermine your argument. You use them all the time.
I don't always point them out, because I come to BGR to have spirited discussion not to school you on rhetoric and mechanics. To me this is an informal message board, but to each their own I guess.
