The current chaos of today's world presents many challenges we have been forced to face. Horrible disease, violence, and deadly weather to name a few. I made this poll as I would like to accumulate the opinions of what we personally think is the biggest terrorist threat the United States faces, and how we can respond to it. Our country is becoming increasingly divided and I am very curious where you opinions lie in regards to that threat.

Honestly, it's a whole mixture of everything right now. Overly paranoid people about COVID 19 and the others that believe COVID 19 is some sort of hoax or just a "flu".Then there's the BLM movement, police brutality and those that oppose BLM movement. It's a whole shit show right now all going out at once.

 

I think the US could have done a hell of a better response to the COVID spread. Could have shut down a little earlier which has shown to be affective until the phases started rolling out and we have seen the uptick on the cases. To be honest, I thought it was just going to be a SARS type of case or Ebola that will just disappear. Boy was I wrong. I work in a grocery store that is a high volume store. Customers don't give a fuck about social distancing or not wearing the mask right. I understand it fucking sucks but I work 8-10 hours a day 5-6x a week with it, at least be considerate for the workers that work there. Younger people got to take it seriously as well. Yeah, we have a high chance surviving it but what about those that are high risk? My company stopped paying the extra $2 pay and early in the pandemic offered double time for overtime but internally they were bitching about the overtime and tried their best to prevent it. Virus hasn't gone away or a vaccine has been created for it and they expect us to perform to their expectations despite every day sales being holiday type of sales and short staffed because people not really wanting to apply because of the risk of being exposed to the virus.

 

The BLM, I understand what most are protesting. I'm a minority, Latino male. Son of immigrant parents, anchor baby. There's has been so many police brutality against minorities that it's ridiculous on some of those cops actions. Do I group all cops together as a bad egg? Hell no. I've met a bunch of cops who have been great but I also encountered asshole cops. I was just in my apartment building parking lot in my car cleaning it out and a police cruiser comes directly behind my car and asks for my license and registration. I'm scared as hell because there was recent police shootings against minorities or cops beating them. I talked to the cop as to what I'm reaching for and what I'm gonna do next because I didn't want no issues. A couple weeks prior, my brother in law was coming out of the train station after his shift at work and got stopped by local police because he matched a description. They arrested and while they were asking questions beat the shit out of him and left him bruises and a black eye and said "Your people deserve this type of treatment and to go back to your country". He was terrified to report it because he thought nothing would be done. I was also scared despite not doing anything wrong. First time ever seeing a police cruiser at the parking lot and they said “oh there’s been multiple reports of suspicious activities” which was bullshit. This type of "policing" I would protest about. But the rioting and burning shit I agree with the other side doesn't help what point you're trying put across.

I had a bit of trouble with the third question... then I recalled the poster of this poll. I'm a very good leader, but I would absolutely be the most loyal supporter of the original poster of this thread. I have always chosen, of free will, who I follow.

Great, let others post their opinions for you. How about post how you REALLY feel

Let a fucking cop make you feel “comfortable” how you feel? On a fucking property you’re at right at being at? All of a sudden they want more info? It’s bullshit.

Yeah great, in my own property under my landlord terms to use the property as it seems just

I had a hard time trying to figure out what you're saying to me here... so I read your wall of text up there and got a little context. Sorry about all that. If you want to know how I REALLY feel, it's pretty easy. I have about 7 years of posts scattered throughout this forum that could shine some light on it for you.

 

For the record... Covid-19 is overblown, and it's horribly politicized.

I think the "anti-government militias" is a good umbrella term for Islamic Extremists, Antifa and Right-wing extremists. In the end, they all ant to topple existing social order, although in different ways.

It's referring to Right Wing Conservative Militias. Not necessarily religious, just Anti Big Government.
