Yesterday, I was wondering what Butch would make out of Covid.

Im trying to think, but I trust he was more conservative than liberal?

 

[Burnham]

A mixed bag, that boy.

 

[FireFighterZero]

I have a hard time believing he would be a mask and lock down proponent.

I have an easier time seeing him wear a Roman Legion helmet......to Walmart.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

He would flex his good bicep and say "I aint skeeered".

I wold say you are correct.
But I feel a person or politician needs to be both in this day and age. The drastic divisions of people and politicians being one or the other isn't working any more.

I was actually thinking this the other day. How would But h see today’s situation. Then someone else brought it up.

My memory often doesn’t serve me well and I was wondering... was COVID a major thing when he was still alive? I have a feeling he passed after it appeared on our radar but was he still with it at that point?

In other words was it palliative care at that point?

He died March 9th and had been in palliative care. He didn’t get much into the issue.

Thanks Carl.

Probably for the best. It is a sorry state of affairs, the division, the virus, the lockdowns, the arguing and most of all the media.

I mean that in the best way possible. RIP Butch.

For a year or so before he died.....Butch had a real disdain for anything to do with religion.

I am not a religious person.....or at least I dont know anything about it.

Still....it didn't set well with me.....even though I dont know shit about it.

He musta knew he was on the way out.....didn't have any time for stories.


I loved him very much. Breaks my heart that our relationship was strained because of this.

I didn't understand what was happening.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Lucky you guys are still here.

I noticed that he didn't have anything good to say about religion. I've seen a lot of folks, especially men, be against religion their entire lives then right at the last, change their mind. Sometimes on their death bed. I always wondered about that. Was it them, were they doing it for their families, did the preacher talk them in to it. Most people's hearts are harder about their faith, or lack there of, than they are politics. Which is why I won't discuss either. It never ends well and makes a lot of enemies. And you're not going to change someone's mind anyway. Still I think about why people believe what they believe and how they came to think that way.

I miss the snappy comebacks that Butch would have to almost every topic. He could get his point across and let you know where he stood. And wouldn't make others feel attacked or feel like they were idiots for seeing something different than he did. I wish there more with that capability. Including myself.
