    If they could not take being around each other they just had the divorce early, probably saved a fortune.

    I would first say to his family and friends that I am very sorry for their loss of this young man taking his life. Every life loss diminishes all of us.

    Then I would understand that my father was about this man's age when he was shipped over to North Africa to fight in WW2, and he returned to his home state after the war with the polio epidemic in full swing. At times the communities went months with everything shutdown and everyone staying at home with no travel in or out allowed. This included the delay to continuing his education when the state university was shuttered for a semester.

    After this I would think of what my dad would say in summary about this young man committing suicide -- his summary would be that this guy made his own decisions and that is where the responsibility rests.

    It is likely that this young man had mental issues for an extended period of time before COVID-19 showed up and attempting to blame COVID lock-downs is just deflecting responsibility for his lack of earlier recognition & treatment for the issues. It is a difficult situation for his family and friends -- and hopefully they will think of supporting causes such as the "Walk for Hope" (like I do) which raises money for the research & treatment of mental illness.

    Food shortages ---- I think not. Sounds like it is just the meat processing plants who are shipping most of their output out of the U.S. fearmongering so they can make a profit. They want all those sick workers back on the job and want the government to declare that information about COVID-19 at processing plants is not public data; nor can it be distributed to employees at the plant. The serfs just need to labor, be told nothing, and die quietly when they get sick.

    There are fears the US faces a coronavirus-driven meat shortage, but analysts say there's actually plenty to go around: 'We have the meat'

    WTF?

    What does your dad have to do with this? This is bizarre.

    The allies fought WWII to stop totalitarianism. You practice it. Totalitarianism has no part in America and there will be fierce resistance to bastards like you.

    You seem to think the actions of others provide credence to your arguments. Why do you think your dad's action bolster your arguments? They don't. You pulled the same thing with your daughter and you said something that your daughter did gave you credibility. it doesn't.

    The question is, what did you do? How long were you in the military?
