If it weren't real, why haven't the Bidens denied it? Why did Hunter Biden's lawyer recently ask the repair shop for the laptop back (indicating that it was Hunter's laptop)?

Thanks.

On the plus side, it looks like the President is recovering well so far.

Thanks, John.

Thank you, David.

Thanks.

You can't trust what anyone says. Two weeks ago, if you went outside in a mass gathering, you were killing grandma with COVID-19. Now, it's okay.

Duanne,

You can't say "it goes far deeper than the statistics" and then make a statistical claim "a black person is far more likely to end up dead" with no numbers to back it up. The facts don't support your claim. If you take into account crime rates, blacks are less likely to be killed by police than you would expect.

From the WSJ ( www.wsj.com/.../the-myth-of-systemic-police-racism-11591119883 ):

"In 2019 police officers fatally shot 1,004 people, most of whom were armed or otherwise dangerous. African-Americans were about a quarter of those killed by cops last year (235), a ratio that has remained stable since 2015. That share of black victims is less than what the black crime rate would predict, since police shootings are a function of how often officers encounter armed and violent suspects. In 2018, the latest year for which such data have been published, African-Americans made up 53% of known homicide offenders in the U.S. and commit about 60% of robberies, though they are 13% of the population... police officer is 18½ times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male is to be killed by a police officer."

I got my Costco card refund in February, so I stocked up then. Good timing.

Could be. I've noticed there's been a run on exercise equipment at Target recently.
