So you have no sources? Then please stop asking others to share theirs.

So, you are saying that home-schooled kids were better educated than those classroom kids with whom you had direct experience ?

Probably true .... was your professional educational input the significant variable ?

Yep! On a number of occasions, a kid had to move from home schooling to the regular classroom because a parent was no longer able to stay home. Those kids were always well ahead of all the other students returning at the end of the summer.

Since I had nothing to do with those kids' home schooling, no, my input didn't matter. I was only rarely asked about home schooling by parents, and I doubt that my expressed approval of it made up anyone's mind.

Nope. Don't deliberately misread my posts--you do that all the time, which is called making a "straw man" argument.

I'm not going to provide any sources for you or to respond to any of your demands. If anyone else asks, no problem. That is not the same as having no sources to cite. If a toddler screamed at me to provide sources, I would, for similar reasons, refuse.

I note with no surprise at all that you dodged the question I asked. Tell you what--answer that question honestly and I'll favor you with ONE source. Deal? Or weasel?

(You might consider that as a teacher, I have researched home schooling quite extensively, which certainly trumps your uninformed opinions.)

The current coronavirus situation in Las Vegas and Clark County is reflected in the rate of new cases across the state, and compared to the pandemic severity in all states. It's not as bad off as Florida (no US state is), but the per capita rates of new infections and hospitalizations is among the highest.

No more questions. The witness is excused.

Get the latest data here. Don't ask people on this forum. Las Vegas is in Clark County.

I'm not answering any questions until you provide some sources!

And that ain't happening until you answer my question, and feel free to bleat that I'm not providing sources because I don't have any. Bleat away. Bleat bleat bleat.

You have your unshakable beliefs; I have three decades' of experience. Truly amazing how you are so arrogant as to think that you know more than I on this matter. But you're the type of person whose ego trumps all.

Another reason why I won't provide any sources for you is that you'll sneer at and discount them because they show that you're wrong. Would you EVER say, "Gee, sorry, I guess I was wrong"? HA!

Sorta contradicts the "only the libs get Covid" narrative, doesn't it? In fact, excepting Nevada, which is an anomaly because of extremely high visitation, all the high-infection states are in either the Confederacy or the mountain yahoo region. And those states are all Republican!

Nevada should have before, and definitely should now, require proof of vaccination in order to visit Vegas. Yeah, it'll create a massive logjam. But the ultimate effect will be that the unvaccinated will either get their damn shots or not come at all--either outcome would be desirable.

Don't know why you felt compelled to emphasize parts of my post; I already said that my opinions on home schooling were based on a long period of direct observation, not on having done it myself.

Just imagine how much of a delusional freak you would have to be to actually believe this.

It's right up there with "STOP THE STEAL!!!!," the Deep State, and the Jewish space lasers.

It's so insidious Your natural reaction is, "This is nonsense," but AHA! THAT'S JUST WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO THINK!!!!!!!!!

You have to be constantly on the lookout for THEM.

The Freedom to be Hospitalized has become a political football. Yet mandatory vaccinations for things like measles, mumps, rubella, and the like have been in place in public school systems across the country for many, many decades.

I wonder what the effect would be if insurers refused to pay covid treatment medical bills for unvaccinated people.

what if they refused to treat jabbed people, because they took an unapproved experimental cocktail?

Somebody should film a documentary called The Derpification of America

I see, you are willfully ignorant or feigning it. Apparently an FDA emergency use authorization holds no meaning in your lexicon.

"What is an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA)?

An Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) is a mechanism to facilitate the availability and use of medical countermeasures, including vaccines, during public health emergencies, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. Under an EUA, FDA may allow the use of unapproved medical products, or unapproved uses of approved medical products in an emergency to diagnose, treat, or prevent serious or life-threatening diseases or conditions when certain statutory criteria have been met, including that there are no adequate, approved, and available alternatives. Taking into consideration input from the FDA, manufacturers decide whether and when to submit an EUA request to FDA.

Once submitted, FDA will evaluate an EUA request and determine whether the relevant statutory criteria are met, taking into account the totality of the scientific evidence about the vaccine that is available to FDA."

The willful moron act is pretty thin by this point.

That would actually make sense if the vaccines were pushed to the vulnerable, as is there seems to be a push for 100% of the population to be vaccinated. Guess what, for most folks this virus presents no emergency at all.

In the context of the US you are going to have more people with comorbidities than in other countries but the push for 100% level of vaccination does not seem granted at all.

Cannot speak to which "most folks" you reference, but in this country the spread of a virus credibly deemed the cause of preventable death for 650,000 Americans in a little more than 18 months is considered an emergency.

Well, he's claimed that more than half of those deaths weren't from Covid at all (it was death strikes from the Jewish space lasers), so...

I can't speculate on his motives for pushing lies about the pandemic that no one's going to believe anyway, but that seems to be extremely common behavior.

I agree with madrobin on this one,

........................ but someone .... please get him a mirror ?

After a billion doses have been administered around the world, a stance like that has no grasp of reality.

I don't understand why you guys are continuously interacting with such a horrible person like madrobin. If you would all stop quoting him and put him on ignore the world would be a much better place. If any of you guys need help using the ignore function for him, feel free to let me know and I'll coach you through it.

Madrobin, you're the worst. Please stop posting so that everysinglepost is antagonistic toward pretty much everyone. It's not that hard to be nice, you should try it, it's free. I realize that you are good at skirting the line of civility to avoid anything banworthy, but it's getting old getting post report after post report after post report about just how awful you are. So take a break or learn to play nice please. Pretty please? You really seem like you would have much more fun with your style of posting in the Politics forum, why aren't you there?
