We know them not and can only judge them by their actons which were stupid. I'm with Pete on this one. Please post the video they saw so we can judge for ourselves. I told you where I saw the news. You are welcome to see the same thing I did. It was reported on by a few new channels falsely. What a surprise What was said originally was a chemical which is used for the drug for Malaria which possibly could be used as a treatment tested in another country. What the idiot took was something that SOUNDED similar which is a chemical in fish tank cleaner. Big difference, check for the truth when listening to some or all news. They are not really concerned with giving people the facts, maby 30 years ago. . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, watch Ken Burns documentary on the Vietnam war. Fifty plus years ago, the news said that in their spare time, soldiers were volunteering to help the locals. Complete whitewashing to paint a rosy picture. These guys were in a living hell and the stories on the news here were complete BS. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that people were more trusting of their government and talking heads. Seems naive now but unless you could get access to foreign press sources, you didn’t have anything else to go on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, a lot of it is random, by chance. Edit> One can move to where a bomb, gun shot or virus might be less likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
