August’s big drop in COVID-19 numbers brings N.H. back to spring levels for top three metrics
August is on pace to record New Hampshire’s lowest numbers of COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations and deaths since May. The dramatic, summer-long decline in all three metrics occurred as the state reopened its economy. But it has been hard to see by looking only at the daily reporting.
Data Point – We Locked Down the Entire Country Because of 50 Counties???

GrokMeetups – would you come?
UPDATED and BUMPED: OK, the poll ends tonite at one minute to midnight. Let us know if you want a GrokMeetup soon or not. Thus far, it seems that the vote is yes – but who knows who’ll toss some no’s! For the Yes’s, I’ma gonna need some help in finding places that won’t mandate masks – but won’t force you not wear them, either. After all, it should always be “Your choice!”.
It’s been a long time since we Groksters sat down with you, our smart, witty readers. I’ll be the first to admit – as much work as goes into them, especially finding a place that would hold us I miss seeing y’all.

“Don’t comply with COVID guidelines out of ignorance”
It’s summer time again. As expected, it is hot, but if it was -10° we would complain because it’s human nature to want something different than what we have at the present. We were brought up to question and resist compliance. We should challenge the status quo and authorities. Sure, in the end we may have to comply with rational and reasonable laws, but not out of ignorance. My wife has coined a phrase: We were the “Live Free or Die” state, but with COVID we quickly became the “Live to Comply” state.

Dr. Ron Paul Dismantles the False “Covid Spike” Narrative (4.5 Min video)
Former U.S. Representative Dr. Ron Paul discusses the wildly exaggerated misreporting of Covid-19 data that is being used to justify “the greatest assault on our civil liberties in our lifetime”. He uncovers examples of Covid-19 listed as the cause of death for a motor cycle accident, massive over reporting of Covid cases across Florida and other states (e.g. Orlando reported 98% positivity instead of the actual 9.4%)

Notable Quote – Bjorn Lomberg
For decades, climate activists have exhorted people in the wealthy West to change their personal behavior to cut carbon emissions. We have been told to drive less, to stop flying and, in general, to reduce consumption—all in the name of saving the planet from ever higher temperatures.
Without the COVID-19 Panic Democrats Cannot Easily Achieve…
Sundance over at The Conservative Treehouse has a good post about some of what is going on in the Democrat-led States that are seeing higher infection rates.
“To protect the public, police are charged to complete an arrest even if there’s resistance”
The saddest thing about someone who loses his/her life at the hands of the police is that the death is almost always the consequence of the deceased’s resistance to being arrested. The likelihood of someone dying when he/she fully complies with police orders is nearly, and should be, zero. To protect the public, police are … Read more

2020 Taglines

So, How Much Money Did NH Get to Keep Us Locked Down?
This is a quick one—more questions than answers. But I’m throwing it out for crowdsourcing because NH has always been ready to milk the Jackpot Justice Cow. COVID-19 turned out to be just such a cow, and someone sent me this a while back. I missed it until now, but it is still relevant.
