From Harford County Public Schools:
The following message from Dr. Bulson, Superintendent of Harford County Public Schools, will be sent via our mass communication system this evening:
As schools across the country confront the effects of COVID-19, I want to thank you, the parents and guardians, our students, and our staff, for your patience, understanding, and flexibility as we face this challenge together.
At this time, we have no formal announcement from State authorities about how much longer we should expect to remain closed.
HCPS is not equipped to deliver comprehensive online instruction to our students. However, we continue to seek additional information about access to technology for the households of our students and staff members. I want to thank you for the more than 20,000 responses we received to our digital survey for families and the over 2,500 responses we received from staff as we look to the future of how instruction may be delivered in our school system. The preliminary information we have learned from the responses is helping us better understand the steps we will need to take in the event we stay closed beyond March 27. Please submit your responses by 12:00 p.m. tomorrow, Friday, March 20, when the survey will officially close.
I also understand that future school-related dates and events are at the forefront of your minds. I have received questions on everything from grades, to testing, to graduation credits and other end-of-year events. As soon as we have greater clarity about when we will return to school, I will ensure we communicate clear decisions about those events as quickly as possible.
I want to thank our food and nutrition department who has been preparing and distributing breakfast, lunch, and dinner “to go” at sites throughout the county. If you are not able to access a meal site or need additional assistance, I encourage you to call 2-1-1 or reach out to the Harford Community Action Agency.
Please follow local health department and county government social media pages as well as the site for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for additional guidance. We will continue to provide new information about Harford County Public Schools via our website, social media channels, and of course, through this channel. I look forward to speaking with you again next week and I hope you have a wonderful evening.
Thank you,
Sean Bulson, Ed.D
Superintendent
Harford County Public Schools
Jim says
I think the Harford County School system is woefully behind in equipping students with what they need to have to fit into the global world. The language instruction is xenophobic and it isn’t started until it’s too late. It should be offered when kids begin their education. It should be mandatory that students are proficient in one language which is not their own.
It is no surprise to me that the system cannot provide appropriate online instruction. It is my opinion that most of the administration was influenced by those from the ’50’s and there has been no evolvement.
Bel Air Educator says
Hey there Jimbo, many families do not have internet or devices. Do you want to pay for those things for them? Many special education mandates are virtually impossible to manage in a situation like this as well, so are you going to personally go sit with an autistic old and provide their services? My guess is you know next to nothing about how education should be delivered or about managing 35000 students and 5000 employees so save your criticism for something you do understand. This is an unforeseen crisis the likes of which schools have never had to deal with. Offer to help or shut it!
Bel Air Educator says
Autistic kid*
Jim says
County has the money, they just choose not to allocate to the school system. They don’t pay teachers what’s warranted. There are many flaws in the system. Many folks here have the internet as well as devices.
S.o says
I do not know one family that does not have a cellphone that has internet that could be used to access learning from home if the school provides it.
RyanBurbey says
Cell phones are not an effective device for online learning.
Cdev says
What about the family living in a shelter? Or a car? I know of quit a few!
justsaying says
I disagree, I worked in HCPS for ten years and I think that almost every kid has a smart phone, access or access to a parents, relatives or someone else. HCPS has the technology – they had the technology in 1996, 1997 when I was going to school Bell Labs and the Army put one of the first distance learning laboratories in the nation at that time into Aberdeen high. I know the school is no longer there – but shortly around that time the community college along with many other colleges and HCPS were to utilize the HEAT center, distance learning – the idea was that one teacher could teach anyone who had access to the internet – this was over 20 years ago.
RU Kidding says
One shoe doesn’t fit all. Some areas of the county still do not have internet, some rely on weak, undependable service. Not almost every kid has a smart phone, some parents don’t as well. Justsaying says, what would you recommend for these situations?
Truth Be Told says
This is a cop out…..Ask the young people how to do it I guarantee they have a way to make it work. The issue is the 5000 employees in HCPS who cant think outside the lines.
Say it with a Straight Face says
Blame the teachers unions for the lack of ability to “mass teach”. Their entire purpose is to keep the most teachers working as is possible at the highest pay rates they can squeeze. Remote technologies are antithetical their purpose.
RyanBurbey says
Your comment is stunningly ignorant and utterly false.
Truth Be Told says
What should happen is about 2500 of those employees should be shown the door. To not be able to provide instruction in this time of connectivity is ridiculous. The needs of the special needs kids should not dictate the majority.
How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Start biting folks instead of sitting on your hands.
Clueless says
Clearly you don’t understand laws. Special education services must be at the forefront of any of these decisions. As far as sitting on our hands, we are not allowed to get together and collaborate on solutions or be physically present to make the steps necessary to bring instruction home to students.
Be a parent, teach your kids a few things on your own and be your own childcare. The schools have been doing it forever, it’s your turn
Truth Be Told says
Thanks for your insight, but you obviously don’t have a clue. As for me we homeschool our kids for the very reasons this event proves out. Public school teachers could provide instruction to vast majority of students if they chose to. Instead they collect a paycheck and cry about how they cant. If school isn’t going to be open and the teachers aren’t going to find a work around then lets start laying off administrators and teachers until school opens back up. What should not happen is administrators and teachers receiving pay checks to do nothing. The rest of us have to work for our pay check. Fair is fair.
Harford County Constitutionalist says
Clueless that is the point why the heck should special education services drive the decision making. Special education makes up less than 10% of the student population yet drive the decision making. Why are 90% of the students being held up? The comment about schools and child care is amazingly obtuse. Teachers are paid to do a job, providing education during the day is that job. We should not stop doing the job while still getting paid to do that job. I don’t think anybody is gonna get a refund on property taxes.
RyanBurbey says
You obviously have zero concept of the challenges and obstacle presented by providing K-12 online instruction. Take some education classes and get back to us.
Truth Be Told says
We have provided a far better education to our children then your system could ever dream of doing. Your “challenges and obstacles:” are excuses. Perhaps your administration could use the PHDs they have and actually develop leadership and solutions instead of excuses.
S.o says
I don’t mean to sound rude but regardless of your child having special needs or not you have to rise up as a parent during these times. I understand that is more incredibly challenging with a child with special needs but I’m sorry to be so blunt however that is the parents responsibility to make sure their child is learning and to support them no matter what the circumstances are regardless of their individual needs. I think this is called parenting lol but I could wrong
Clear Out HCPS Senior Management says
Unfortunately you can not hold back the larger group of people who do have access to internet, just because some do not. Online learning should have been in place the first week of the shut down, while a resolve was worked out for those who do not have access.
In the world the USA is far behind the rest of the world in education and languages, that on top of the obsolete way they are taught is mind blowing. The amount of time off for in house teacher prep etc is crazy. Those time should be used for real education, not pass off what is been taught in class or currently – give kids assignments, and have them teach themselves online. Quite a few head should go at HCPS, they have failed the community massively, and certainly don’t justify the salaries they are receiving. No wonder Bulson didn’t allow comments on his posts or any of the posts out of HCPS !
SoulCrusher says
How do you know that the students are actually doing the work? Look, parents will do anything for their children, including completing the work for them in order for the students to stay in the same grade with their peers. Look at the College admission scandals that swept the Universities last year. Look at how the teachers in Baltimore City cheated to make their students look educated, but they can’t read or write. So at this point, it isn’t just the Parents cheating, its the teachers too. Lets not forget about the harm they are causing the students they push thru because they don’t have the necessary life skills to function in society.
Jim says
County has the money, they just choose not to allocate to the school system. They don’t pay teachers what’s warranted. There are many flaws in the system. Many folks here have the internet as well as devices.
Cecil's Whig says
Our kid graduated from the Harford Tech Cyber program and received an excellent education. So the assertion that “system is woefully behind in equipping students with what they need to have to fit into the global world” is off base and inaccurate.
LOL says
More time for teachers to smoke weed.
It’s not like their .gov job has any drug testing.
Why? CDL HCPS employees (very few) do. LOL
High HCPS Worker says
You really need some new material and quit bein jealous cause your work drug tests your as boring as soul crusher move out of mommies basment and live life
SoulCrusher says
If we’re so boring then why do you keep reading?
LOL says
Exactly.
I’m just curious.
It’s my opinion if you collect a paycheck from any .gov you should follow all guidelines/policy implemented.
Can’t preach “drug free” when it’s highly likely (some) employees have traceable illegal substances in their bodies.
Of course a pre-hire drug screen doesn’t eliminate all the weed smokers, nor does “random” testing but it’s a good start.
My employer does do drug screening in multiple ways, but my salary is triple that of a starting HCPS employee.
Enjoy your shitty pension and terrible work life.
Truth Be Told says
I find this ridiculous. This is the same system that keeps claiming it wants more and more funding. Yet when they need to innovate they cant figure it out with the resources they have. Literally they are incapable of finding their way out of a paperbag. This is the reason many of us choose to Home School. BTW our students are still at school.
There are so many tools available to get this done. Many are even FREE. Teachers its time to think outside the box and try things. You may first fail, but eventually you figure it out.
Dee Low says
Idiots.
What I see happening is school will be scheduled during “summer vacation.”
As in, June/July/August.
Durrrrrppp.
RyanBurbey says
I would bet on June and possibly July.
S says
Amazing how do we we have all of these issues of pitiful teachers and teacher shortages with all the non school system experts out there…
linnny says
schools:barely relavant
sucessess/happiness: product of (love x finding niche x relevance)
if any of the three factors in the equation are zero, then the total equals zero.
JacksonRII says
Lets all be honest. HCPS teacher for 20 years. County doesn’t want to play teachers for whatever reason. They want to spend the $$$ elsewhere. They have the money (pass the buck after passing the buck…be ashamed for that….and they should all be fired. Greedy pricks. Honor the contract we all signed. The fact that we can’t honor special ed needs online…it is what it is. Make the best of it. We will and should enact online instruction and most if not all teachers will rise to the occasion cause that’s what we do. It’s the best for the majority of students.
Rjbaskins says
I hear that spanking is allowed in school now
Edutainment says
To be clear: Teachers were explicitly instructed by HCPS to not communicate to students.Teachers want to teach and many have been working hard to prepare students for various exams and would take advantage of the many resources we have been trained on, but have been instructed otherwise.
Criticize teachers all you want – this is not on them.
RyanBurbey says
Teachers were not told to not to contact students. HCPS is carefully and strategically working to resolve issues. They have not received assistance or guidance from MSDE.
Edutainment says
Ryan,
I appreciate all the work you have done to assist teachers in the past, but you are wrong on this one. Supervisors have sent e-mails to teachers stating “please stop communicating with students regarding assignments.”
It’s not much more clear than that.
Ryan Burbey says
“Due to student privacy concerns, please use HCPS sanctioned tools and resources only when communication with students, e.g. TAC, HCPS email, Padlet, etc.”
JZ says
HCPS IT infrastructure most likely not capable of hosting multiple simultaneous live feeds (video, voice, data etc.), it’s really not their fault, most public school’s are not prepared for the situation that we find ourselves in, we are in unprecedented times. Many lessons will be learned from this experience.
RyanBurbey says
Thank you for being a voice of reason.
SoulCrusher says
Guess I was wrong…it is bad and getting worse. I’m a moron!
SoulCrusher says
It’s still no more dangerous than the flu everybody. The campaign of fear being executed by our government has brought many states to the brink of martial law and has completely wiped out one of the strongest economies we’ve ever seen. All over a virus with a lower mortality rate than Ebola, SARS, MERS, H1N1 and Nipah. Just for the record, Ebola fatality rates were 40.4%, SARS was 9.6%, MERS was 34.4%, Nipah was 77.6%, while COVID-19 is far lower at 4.4%. Each of these other diseases were far more deadly but the novel Corona virus is just more widespread. If the world didn’t get completely shut down before then why are they shutting it down for something far less deadly? These are the facts that my imitator just doesn’t want you to know because he is part of a fear campaign. https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-death-age-older-people-higher-risk-2020-2
Just the facts says
It’s a move by trump and the republicans to take over the country. DOJ just tried to take away all due process. McConnell is asking judges to retire early so he can replace them. The Republican run Senate is attempting to take trillions in taxpayer dollars and give it to themselves and business. This is the government you have been supporting SC be proud you fking traitor to America
SoulCrusher says
How many times do I have to tell you that BOTH political parties want the same thing, they just have different paths they take to achieve it. It’s all about controlling the people and most importantly the minds of the people. Now, under National Emergencies due process does get set to the side. I’m still not convinced that COVID-19 is the dangerous virus that is being pushed by our government and the media, but the emergency has been declared so we have to put up with it. Both sides of the aisle have stolen from ALL of us and will continue to do so until those whom elect our Representatives and Senators stop putting career politicians and former domestic government employees in office. I haven’t read what the stimulus package is going to include, so I’m not going to comment on that yet. Let me be very clear, Trump had this economy and nation working like a well oiled machine until this virus swept the globe. I don’t need to defend my stance on government because I don’t consent to any of it. I’m not an R or a D, I’m an American. I also laugh at your last sentence because it comes from the mouth of Chinese loving communist party member that ALL Democrats have become. The bottom line is the Democratic Party is the greatest threat to our nation and if you guys put a Democrat in charge everything will get worse than it is.
SoulCrusher says
Oopsy doodles… Imagine that…I was wrong again…
If you’re still confused as to why Coronavirus is a bigger deal than Seasonal flu? Here it is in a nutshell. I hope this helps. Feel free to share this to others who don’t understand…
It has to do with RNA sequencing…. I.e. genetics.
Seasonal flu is an “all human virus”. The DNA/RNA chains that make up the virus are recognized by the human immune system. This means that your body has some immunity to it before it comes around each year… you get immunity two ways…through exposure to a virus, or by getting a flu shot.
Novel viruses, come from animals…. the WHO tracks novel viruses in animals, (sometimes for years watching for mutations). Usually these viruses only transfer from animal to animal (pigs in the case of H1N1) (birds in the case of the Spanish flu). But once, one of these animal viruses mutates, and starts to transfer from animals to humans… then it’s a problem, Why? Because we have no natural or acquired immunity.. the RNA sequencing of the genes inside the virus isn’t human, and the human immune system doesn’t recognize it so, we can’t fight it off.
Now…. sometimes, the mutation only allows transfer from animal to human, for years it’s only transmission is from an infected animal to a human before it finally mutates so that it can now transfer human to human… once that happens..we have a new contagion phase. And depending on the fashion of this new mutation, thats what decides how contagious, or how deadly it’s gonna be..
H1N1 was deadly….but it did not mutate in a way that was as deadly as the Spanish flu. It’s RNA was slower to mutate and it attacked its host differently, too.
Fast forward.
Now, here comes this Coronavirus… it existed in animals only, for nobody knows how long…but one day, at an animal market, in Wuhan China, in December 2019, it mutated and made the jump from animal to people. At first, only animals could give it to a person… But here is the scary part…. in just TWO WEEKS it mutated again and gained the ability to jump from human to human. Scientists call this quick ability, “slippery”
This Coronavirus, not being in any form a “human” virus (whereas we would all have some natural or acquired immunity). Took off like a rocket. And this was because, Humans have no known immunity…doctors have no known medicines for it.
And it just so happens that this particular mutated animal virus, changed itself in such a way the way that it causes great damage to human lungs..
That’s why Coronavirus is different from seasonal flu, or H1N1 or any other type of influenza…. this one is slippery AF. And it’s a lung eater…And, it’s already mutated AGAIN, so that we now have two strains to deal with, strain s, and strain L….which makes it twice as hard to develop a vaccine.
We really have no tools in our shed, with this. History has shown that fast and immediate closings of public places has helped in the past pandemics. Philadelphia and Baltimore were reluctant to close events in 1918 and they were the hardest hit in the US during the Spanish Flu.
Factoid: Henry VIII stayed in his room and allowed no one near him, till the Black Plague passed…(honestly…I understand him so much better now). Just like us, he had no tools in his shed, except social isolation…
And let me end by saying….right now it’s hitting older folks harder… but this genome is so slippery…if it mutates again (and it will). Who is to say, what it will do next.
Be smart folks… acting like you’re unafraid is so not bright anymore.
SoulCrusher says
Sorry, but you are typing complete rubbish. My statement is backed up by facts provided right in my comments via sourced material from the Business Insider website. I don’t know where you’re getting yours from….Please provide your proof. I provided mine.
SoulCrusher says
By the way, I question ALL your supposed facts on how the virus originated and its mutations. I think you are creating fear in order to hinder the liberty of ALL Americans. Henry the 8th died as a fat pig and that reminds me of Jerry Nadler. Have you ever noticed that Nadler wears his belt like a BRA?
SoulCrusher says
Aha!
The fake SoulCrusher cited the “business insider” as his most credible source, but dismisses evidence from the CDC and the WHO….
What a douchebag!
Stop listening to that imposter… I am real teller of truths… the actual Crusher of Souls! Pat no attention to the fake SoulCrusher!!
SoulCrusher says
For over 8 years I’ve been telling you all that the government is nothing but a criminal enterprise and a terrorist organization. If the general public can’t see the actual “terrorism” being sponsored by our government, the CDC and the WHO at this point, in relation to the ACTUAL risks of this COVID-19 outbreak, then the public deserves to be the recipient of the terrorism I speak of. Let me remind everyone that the WHO is a creation of the United Nations and everything involving the UN is suspect to say the least. The CDC is a creation of the corporate government and we ALL no the corporate government can NOT be trusted. Anyone who reads the Dagger on the regular, knows that the REAL Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls will tell you exactly what I’ve just stated in the rest of this message. My imitator is just a messenger of misinformation and dismisses the truth to further the governmental lie and guide you down the path of State terrorism that the government wants to instill in ALL of you. Do what you want and believe what you want, but I ain’t afraid of no Chirona Virus….oh, and just in case you ALL are having difficulty in wondering which one of us is the REAL deal, Angela Eaves is a disease and Elizabeth Bowen is a traitor.
SoulCrusher says
Yet the business insider website is the credible source that you chose to believe….
Moron.
SoulCrusher says
Yeah, I do believe the data that is on that website is accurate. Listen, fuktard, you are promoting terrorism and want everyone to be terrified of something that isn’t that terrifying. The statistical data shows that the COVID-19 virus is NOT as dangerous as other disease outbreaks that did not receive the attention or restrictions that COVID-19 is getting. I know you don’t like the truth and I’m sure you agree with Democrats holding up the stimulus package in the Senate so the Catholic TRAITOR against the United States, Nancy Pelosi, can have the House of TREASON write their own difunctional bill. You do know that this is all State Terrorism on a domestic front? That can’t be tolerated and you are taking part in it. WE THE PEOPLE don’t negotiate with terrorists and you can take that any way you want to….
SoulCrusher says
Yea… just keep going, you douche.
You’re just making it mor and more apparent to everyone that you’re the most ignorant, uneducated, moronic piece of shit posting on here.
Anyone with half A brain can tell from your idiotic ramblings that you have the mind of a three year old, you subscribe to assinine conspiracy theories, you can’t have a coherent discussion, and your biggest accomplishment is calling others names because you lack the intelligence to actually defend your own positions.
This is the reason that there needs to be A wiser and more knowledgeable SoulCrusher…
Pay no attention to the Fake SoulCrusher. I am the only real and true Crusher of Souls! No one should believe the nonsense being spewed from the mouth of my Imitator. He’s most likely a little 14 year old child living in his Mommy’s basement anyway.
Get a life, you piece of shit.
SoulCrusher says
Yeah, well you’re a fuktard. I’ve already defended my position. You just haven’t bothered with paying attention to reality and want to spread complete terror involving a not so terrifying virus which the data shows isn’t as dangerous as the common flu. I can’t have a coherent discussion with you because you aren’t coherent. You simply ignore statistical data and go along with a narrative that is simply incoherent. I call you names because you deserve to be called names. I call you a traitor because you are a traitor. You are a complete Democrat terrorist and we all know it. The Democrat Party once again just showed its true colors today with the vote in the Senate and that is to cause as much damage to the American people that it can. You really do lick balls…Nancy Pelosi’s balls that is.
SoulCrusher says
Lots of big words from A 14 year old…. I hope your mommy is able to take Care of you when you get sick, you dick.
SoulCrusher says
Actually, you probably enjoy Adam Schiff’s shaft….
SoulCrusher says
Of course I do… I love any shaft i can wrap my lips around! thanks so much for pointing out to everyone that The CRUSHER OF SOULS is gay!
SoulCrusher loves dick… that’s why I act like one all the time… It feels so good to finally be out!
Bob says
Oh!
The mystery is finally solved. SoulCrusher is a closeted 14 teen hiding in his mother’s basement. That’s why he has such feelings of aggression towards everyone else.
I’m glad you were finally able to come out of the closet SoulCrusher!
I wish you all the best in your new normal. Stay safe! And wash your hands!
Sharon says
Oh my gosh, it all makes sense now. SoulCrusher is so vocal about the covid-19 virus because he fears it might turn out like the HIV outbreak did and affect his gay community adversely.
SoulCrusher, honey….we are here for you! Don’t worry!
Here is A resource for you:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.them.us/story/online-resources-lgbtq-coronavirus/amp
We are with you!
SoulCrusher says
Well thanks girlfriend, but no thanks. Only my imposter likes to ride Schiff’s shaft and apparently Bob might like to get some of that action as well. I understand that you Dagger Dogs have become part of the terrorist organization and are spreading the myth that the Coronavirus is more dangerous than the flu, but I can’t do that because it isn’t the truth. What’s wrong? Don’t like the truth being told to Dagger readers? Why is it so important for you that the terrorist myth you’re spreading gets believed by the public? The Coronavirus is FAR less dangerous than the flu….
Bob says
The following statement, “It’s still no more dangerous than the flu everybody.” is absolute hogwash!
SoulCrusher says
I beg to differ and I ain’t afraid of no Chirona Virus….
Bob says
No need to beg. You’re making progress. Keep up the good work.
SoulCrusher says
Bob, the bet has been over and I’m trying to be civil, but go fuck yourself….
Bob says
🙂
SoulCrusher says
Reality is influenza has killed 22,000 Americans this season alone and the COVID-19 has killed 9,300 WORLDWIDE this season. The influenza season isn’t over and neither is COVID-19. Read the truth and make up your own mind, but don’t let Bob, my imitator, the CDC, the WHO or even our own government make it up for you by using terrorist techniques to scare you witless. Read it for yourself…..https://www.livescience.com/new-coronavirus-compare-with-flu.html

You cant comment as much as SoulCrusher and be mentally healthy…..
SoulCrusher says
Apparently, you haven’t been following the Dagger much….I just use the same screen name. You don’t.
Justin says
Oh. … I’ve been following the dagger far longer than you have, and I think the biggest sorry that Brian Goodman and friends should cover right now is that after 8 years of posting garbage on their message board, the SoulCrusher just came out as gay on this thread!
I’m so proud of you SC… you continue to be who you are! I’m sure your Mommy will be proud too!
SoulCrusher says
Really? Are you sure the Dagger is still being run by him? Looks to me as if the Dagger isn’t in good standing anymore and it doesn’t look like the DaggerPress has paid it’s taxes in an awful long time. Maybe my old Lawyer will let him come stay with him at either of his lovely locations in Key West or Rehoboth. Son, my ass is still a virgin. It’s so tight I shit diamonds, but wishful thinking there tiny…..

Jay says
Tired of the whining about teacher pay – any person too stupid to research what a career pays has only themselves to blame. Every discussion about any facet of education all we hear is “pay us more” You folks took the job knowing what it pays. And really, nobody believes if teachers got a 50% raise they would all of a sudden become 50% better teachers.
WhatTheFuch says
Right, and a lot of people hire on HCPS as a last ditch effort/stepping stone to go somewhere else.
Most likely a lot of people bullshit to get hired, but since there is a huge turnover rate I’m sure if you’re a halfway decent candidate you can land the job by just being honest as “I’m only here until something better comes along”
Bang4theBuck says
But think about it…that’s a great business model. Get the ones in here that are young, impressionable, energetic, and grateful to have a job. Squeeze them for all they are worth until they jump ship to a better situation. You paid them rock bottom salary for a couple of years, got a ton of work out of them, got them to supply their own classroom, then off they go before they start climbing the payscale.Now, hire another fresh one to take their place. Rinse. Repeat.
Can you imagine how much coin Harford County is saving by using this employment model!
SMH says
Now if HCPS would only honor the pay scale & contract we all signed when we took the job. That’s the complain moron. SMH at how stupid and uniformed people are. You are lucky you aren’t teaching your own kid you ignorant fk.
WhatTheFuch says
“contract” is it for real or is it smoke and mirrors?
Sounds like you and your hire have a slam dunk case all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States (if need be)?
If it’s such a drag to work at HCPS, have every teacher call out sick.
Just like the Corona virus, they won’t know what to do when +1,000 teachers don’t show up for work besides have students sit in the auditorium.
FreeBee says
Do you know why HCPS doesn’t honor their contract? BECAUSE THEY DON’T HAVE TO. Look at all the years they didn’t. What happened? NOTHING. What did the teachers do? They worked. Any shortages were compensated for by teachers working extra hard. Any supplies lacking were purchased by teachers. Stop paying teachers for running clubs and activities…they’ll run them anyway because they want their kids to have them.
If BG&E stopped sending you a bill and you called them and asked why you weren’t getting a bill, and they said “because we are no longer requiring you to pay for your gas and electric. It is now free of charge to you”, would you send them a couple hundred bucks a month anyway? Of course not! You will never pay for what you could get for free, especially if it is of equal quality as what you would pay for.
Teachers- if you are willing to work for free, and you demonstrate this by working for free, don’t be shocked to find yourself working for free. No one is going to pay you for what they can get for free. Harford County and HCPS do NOT have to give you a raise or honor your contract because you have taught them that they don’t have to .
NothingChanges says
Wow how original. Typical crazy old farts locked in their shed still on h Th r dagger. Lmfao at the dagger crazies!!
True Harford Republican says
Jay your an ignorant asshole.You are clueless. Teachers spend a tremendous amount of there own money to keep supplies in the classroom. For what they do and put up with, they should be payed double. Do some research next time you open your mouth and let the bullshit flow out. TOTAL LOSER.
WhatTheFuch says
A lot of the working world spends their own money on supplies.
Calm down, adjust your MAGA hat and read Fox news some more.
jay says
You are proof that what I said is true! You were obviously too short sighted to investigate your chosen career before you took the job & now your miserable. Don’t take your frustration at your own lack of common sense research out on me.
WhatTheFuch says
I love all these “boomers” who call anyone under 30 a “fuggin snowflake millennial” but it’s the old people who complain the most (about EVERYTHING) and rage out faster than anyone else.
Ok, boomer?
For what it’s worth, the naming of “age groups” are stupid as hell.
True Harford Republican says
Republican or Democrat. No matter which way you look at it your an asshole. What are you a politician?

I have to say I disagree with Dr. Bulson’s assertion. HCPS has a online learning management system that has been in place for about 5 years, with curriculum written for it each of the past 4 summers. While I am sure that some students and teachers do not have access to a computer and internet, I believe that many of them do. I wonder if this online system was not utilized to it’s fullest extent due to equality concerns rather than quality ones. If I were a parent of a student with access to a computer, I would certainly be wondering why instruction wasn’t being provided to my kid because other kids might not have access. Seems to punish someone for having resources.
For a contrast, St. Margarets School in Bel Air is providing about 3 hours of work for each student per day via teacher websites and email.
Local Resident says
I really don’t think teachers don’t give a shit about their pay, otherwise they would have just got a job/profession doing something else comparable as basically an average public teacher around here is starting pay low $40,000 a year with a few weeks off in the summer and mostly free weekends on an average monday-friday dayshift job with a bunch of holidays and days where kids aren’t in school but they are.
If they all really wanted to change they should do something than the same old dog and pony show with their “union” that evidently you don’t have to be forced to pay for if you don’t want to be apart of it anymore, Supreme Court ruling?
Prove me wrong, mass sick out day. What are they going to do? Terminate your employment? LOL it looks like they can barely staff teachers as is.
Ryan Burbey says
The platform is currently not able to manage the level of traffic system-wide online instruction would create. Further, there are some curricular resources but none are designed specifically for independent online learning. There is a big difference between using the internet to support instruction and using it to drive independent instruction.
Concerned Citizen says
Ryan,
What is your source saying that the platform cannot manage the level of traffic? Is some level of independent online learning better than nothing? There is a big difference between nothing and something. How to do explain that private schools with smaller per student budgets are able to do provide some type of daily instruction?
Ryan Burbey says
Platform support. This is happening world-wide. Various platforms on the good ole inter web are crashing. Less student = less traffic. I have not seen any evidence that private schools are providing instruction. Students have been provide online resources to maintain the continuum of instruction.
Concerned Citizen says
I don’t know about all private schools, but AOB schools are assigning coursework and having weekly meetings via google meet. The technology is there for some coursework to be assigned and monitored. Nobody is saying that full day instructions via interactive connections are needed, that is an obscene hurdle to put as the bar. Simple coursework, submission, grading, and answering of questions could have been accomplished from day 1. It wasn’t because everybody didn’t have access. Since everybody didn’t have access, teachers were told not to do anything. It is absurd to hold back teachers from doing their jobs. Also the AOB does this with about half of what the taxpayer pays per student in Harford County, let alone the money pit that Baltimore City Schools is.

Ryan…a friend of ours has a son that attends Calvert Hall. He is a senior. They have had online schooling since last Wednesday. School is 9-3 every day. They are using applications that allow them to see and interact with their teacher, and allows them to work in groups with their peers. His education was stopped for what would equate to a pretty good snow storm.
I realize this is comparing apples to oranges, private schools have different funding sources and obligations, etc. But I looked at the “packet” that was sent by HCPS and it is garbage. Make a Trivial Persuit game with questions from the various social sciences? Go for a mindful walk inside your home? A lot of the other stuff…I had to sincerely ask myself if by doing all of the activities in the packet would I actually learn anything. The honest answer is not much. They are providing busy work, not instruction.
I’ve heard several people say that this will establish in the mind of the community the need to better fund the schools. Doubtful. This community will use the inability to provide meaningful instruction as a rationale to say the system is undeserving of funding because they are clearly inept.

Truth Be Told says
Private Schools are doing this in droves….If you haven’t seen any you haven’t looked very hard.
SoulCrusher says
Let’s all be honest. There are very FEW schools, nationwide, that are equipped to do a sudden change to online schooling of a complete curriculum. I know, there are some online colleges that specialize in this, but the current public school system isn’t prepared to handle this. This wouldn’t even be happening if not for the quarantine and this is the 1st time I’ve seen a shutdown like this on a national scale. We have to be honest about things. Does this mean HCPS should be invested in this type of technology? Maybe, it depends on if we actually are going to shutdown the country every time a new “bug” is discovered. Are we going to shutdown the country every cold/flu season? I hardly think so…

Henri says
Doing online learning for a single privte school with probably a couple dozen teachers and a couple hundred students who largely come from pretty affluent backgrounds is very different from doing online learning in a school system that has several thousand teachers and something like 35,000 students from all types of backgrounds and a significant number of those students don’t have access to the resources to even be able to connect to the online learning if was offered. Hell, HCPS probably has more schools than Calvert Hall has teachers…. I don’t fault HCPS for not being able to virtually overnight switch to 100% online learning, or even switching over within a couple of weeks. The technological capability, teacher training, and infrastructure simply does not exist for that to happen in Harford County, or in most parts of the US.
I do agree about the garbage packet that HCPS sent home, however. It isn’t being graded (even just to check a box that says it was completed or not.) On the last Thursday school was in session, teachers were ordered to wrap up every ongoing lesson, long term assignment (or postpone the due date indefinitely), not to assign any work at all, and do it all the very next day. They are currently preparing another similar packet to make more busy work for everyone through 4/24. Many teachers were prepared to come up with long term assignments to give to their students, even if those assignments would’ve had to have been distributed through Edline or via email. However the brain trust at central office forbid them from doing so.
Really??? says
Believe me, there are teachers in this county who *do* want to teach, even if it is things posted to It’s Learning, certain videos from Khan Academy, or YouTube, or even question and answer sessions via email (much like the old listserv lists from the 90’s). Yet we have been told ‘no new instruction’ and that these ‘one size fits all’ learning experiences are just as important as everything else that students have been taught all year.
I understand that we are living in extraordinary times, that this Covid-19 virus will disrupt and change our lives for quite some time, but unless the students who are home now take learning upon themselves, or, their parents get involved, then what else are this county’s teachers to do?
SoulCrusher says
Well then they can e-mail them the YouTube video they want them to watch and attach a quiz to it….it’s better than nothing.
Ryan Burbey says
There are many intersecting issues with regard to online instruction. It is not just the platform but also the capacity amongst students and staff to operate it. It is connectivity. It is a plethora of issues too numerous to delineate.
There has been little guidance from MSDE about credit hours and school calendar. We have missed 10 days. By eliminating standardized testing, this loss of time is essentially eliminated. It takes time to make a feasible and functional strategic plan. We are talking about nearly 40,000 students across k-12, not 200 kids at one school.
Citizens of Harford County and Harford County Government have demanded “efficient” administration. This means less employees to develop the programs which folks are now demanding, NOW. The cost of being forced to be overly frugal is that you cannot do everything you want. You can only do what you need and what is the highest priority. HCPS has been stuck in this quandary for nearly 20 years.
Everyone needs to take a deep breath. It will all be fine. HCPS will develop means to provide instruction in the most efficacious manner possible. That is what educators do.
I get that everyone is stressed and frustrated. However, reason and logic will see us through. Be well. Hug your family and be glad that you are home and safe. I have 3 children of my own. Two are currently in elementary school. Each day we do little reading and some math and review the packet materials. I am completely unconcerned about any future impact of this minor pause. It is a speed bump in the larger picture of our children’s education. Soon, we will be past in and on flat road again.
SoulCrusher says
If the US doesn’t flatten this curve, and recent statistics show it doesn’t seem to be flattening much, the number of those infected doubles approximately every two days.
At that rate, we will have 50,000,000 cases in about 20 days (conservatively). With a 1.5% fatality rate, that’s about 750,000 lives lost in the USA.
For all of those who like play epidemiologist and spread flu numbers from the past few years as opposed to listening to the experts, fuck all of you. I’m glad google has made you an expert on everything. This is why we listen to facts and science!
SoulCrusher says
Stop spreading terrorism on the Dagger. Regardless of anything you say, the Corona Virus is a VIRUS and it spreads like ALL other viruses. At the end of the cold/flu season it will dissipate like any other virus and that is a FACT. It doesn’t matter about mutations or any of the other bullshit you are spreading with your terrorist campaign because it is a VIRUS. We are adhering to the quarantine and that is ALL we can do. Just STFU and stop spreading your constant terrorism, asshole. That’s the bottom line….
SoulCrusher says
The only problem with your statistics is when you look at China, with a population of 1.8 or 1.6 billion and an inept government, they aren’t getting the death toll your talking about. Seems to me that you are the one playing the “epidemiologist” and I think you should take your own advice and listen to FACTS, based on actual statistical data, while shelving the scare tactics for a while.
SoulCrusher says
The other problem is that of the 1.8 billion and the inept government, how many of them are getting their information from Google and are playing epidemiologist with the numbers? I’m still focused on my post where I was calling Hogan a Lackey and asking who the government was trying to protect by blowing this out of proportion. Was it the teachers they were trying to protect? The students? Were they trying to protect the students from the teachers and the lackey government led by Hogan? Are they trying to make a hero out of Hogan? Or are the teachers Hogan’s heroes?
SoulCrusher says
No. You are the one playing “epidemiologist” and I am the one who called Hogan a lackey for falling into the narrative that this is an end of the world pandemic. Why is it so important to you in spreading fear amongst the masses? As for the rest of your nonsensical tirade about whose protecting whom, we all need protection from people like you who are sponsoring terrorism. By making everyone afraid you create panic. That’s why the store shelves are bare. Stop spreading panic.
SoulCrusher says
No, I was the one who called Hogan a lackey for falling into this narrative. I called him that because he is a lackey for falling into this narrative. As far as sponsoring terrorism, nothing could be further than the truth. I am merely asking a question that was posed on this very forum at the onset of the current situation. Why are they closing schools? Is it to protect someone, maybe even the children? Either way, we need to let cooler heads prevail and not fall into this narrative that this is an end of the world pandemic. The store shelves are bare because people keep buying stuff…yet when I drive by, there are still cars there and people coming out with stuff. How is this possible?? Do they restock the shelves? Where does it all come from? Maybe they know something we don’t…like that if they stock it, they will come. No doubt, we need protection from people spreading terrorism…like that woman up in Wilkes-Barre who went into a store and intentionally coughed on 35k worth of groceries. Now THERE was a store that was stocked. Well, not any more because they had to toss all those groceries. Still, or world has become like one big Wilkes-Barre grocery store…we’re completely stocked, but someone is coughing on the inventory. It weighs on me…
SoulCrusher says
No, you’re just a complete liar. March 26, 2020 at 11:40 pm – “At that rate, we will have 50,000,000 cases in about 20 days (conservatively). With a 1.5% fatality rate, that’s about 750,000 lives lost in the USA”, is what YOU typed and that is spreading fear amongst the people. You can double talk all you want, but you’re still a State sponsored terrorist…
Just the facts says
We will easily reach 50,000,000 cases shortly. Just look at Harford county the number doubles everyday and it takes 9 days to get results. Meaning there are 18 cases in Harford county that were hospitalized and tested on 3-19 ( if you have all the symptoms but aren’t needing hospitalization no test for you). at a 15% hospitalization rate that would mean on the 19th there was 110 infected. That means conservatively today ( 9 days later) there are 12,000 cases in Harford county alone. Our only defense is testing and they are not doing it. Aren’t numbers fun?
John P. Mallamo says
Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms/ Just the facts
Sir, Ma’am
If I could, let’s examine your premise.
Could we easily reach 50,000,000 cases shortly. There is no quantification in your statement, so it could be correct, even if it takes a year or more to reach that number. CDC data from there site, https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm, indicated that it took from approximately 1 October 2019 to 21 March 2020 to reach a range between 38,000,000 to 54,000,00o, a very short time in light years. If you would be so kind as to assign a probability and a quantified time period it would help in bounding the situation you are describing.
Looking at the Maryland Department of Health Web site, it does not appear that the case numbers in Harford County double every day. Additionally, it appears that statewide, 11,516 people tested negative. There are currently 226 persons hospitalized. I would submit that those numbers do not support your stated conclusion. I would also submit that predictive models require a more thorough understanding and analysis of the phenomena and a sophisticated algorithm to yield valid results. Arithmetical manipulations of numbers would not fall into the realm of predictive models with any associated degree of confidence…
I do agree that more testing should be conducted. I do not necessarily agree that the number tested should be one hundred per cent of the population. I believe that the number should be derived from the statistically designed predicative model. The results of which would get to your desired end point.
Reviewing the data from an internet site https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ and looking at New York State, the governor now has 52,000 cases to resolve. Clearly the more testing, the more cases will require resolution. A large task by any measure.

SoulCrusher says
What I want to know is what state is sponsoring him? And what is the process of obtaining sponsorship? Also, since you are convinced he is a terrorist, have you notified the authorities. and which authorities did you notify? It’s important to make sure to notify the right authorities because with all the red tape involved in government beurocracies, it could take some time to get the message through the proper channels that there is a state sponsored terrorist on the Dagger saying that a lot of people are going to get sick from the coronavirus.
BTW…a few posts ago you said that the reason the grocery store shelves are bare is because of panic being invited. Well, I just want to ease your worried mind. I was at a grocery store today and guess what? They were pretty well stocked. Meat case was full, got me some steamed shrimp, strawberries buy one get one free, orange juice, a coffee cake, some Progresso soup, loaf of fresh Italian bread…overall, a satisfying shopping experience. I think maybe this state-sponsored terrorist isn’t very good because doesn’t seem like people are panicking. Whatever state is sponsoring him really isn’t getting much bang for their buck.
SoulCrusher says
For real, the authorities are the TERRORISTS. Governance by intimidation is terrorism. Furthermore, it’s not that you’re saying people are going to get sick, you’re saying that 3 quarter of a million people are going to die from it in the US. That creates panic. Now, everyone who reads the Dagger knows that the REAL Crusher of Souls doesn’t step foot into Hateford County due to the treason of the Harford County Judicial Department, so I got to admit I don’t know what the grocery stores look like up there in little Dueschland, but here in Baltimore there is NO Progresso Soup, the meat cases are sold out before noon and the Seafood department is bare unless you talking about fish sticks. Hell, the toilet paper section of Walmart has been literally empty since this panic started. Everything is hit and miss. You literally have to shop 3 stores to find what you need and doing that increases your exposure to the public. Now the only State I’m talking about is the great Hate State of Maryland. I don’t know where you’re talking about….
SoulCrusher says
Well, you did say “state-sponsored” so that was rather nebulous. Not to mention, one would probably assume that terrorism that is happening in their state wouldn’t be sponsored by that state.Why would a state sponsor terrorism to be done in it’s own state? Self-loathing is an activity that can be enjoyed as easily as lying down, but a state sponsored terrorist hired to create terror within the state that sponsored the terrorism and the state that sponsored the terrorist to create terror within that same state would make for strange bedfellows. And although it was Longfellow who said “Into each life some rain must fall”, it is doubtful he would be so glib about it if it was acid rain and hit was raining on his flower bed. More so, I daresay, if he lived next door to the governor and learned of the governor’s efforts to sponsor the acid rain. And certainly, upon discovering said acid rain is now falling on his vegetable garden, the governor would be remorseful having not realized the lunacy of hiring a terrorist to inflict damage in his own neighborhood.
Therefore, I say it may be more likely that another state has sponsored the terrorism. The question is, which one? My money is on Pennsylvania. Not only do we get to be ahead of them in state rolecall, but we have a beach and they don’t. If having once had beachfront property and then giving it away so it could become it’s own state…the FIRST state (and don’t think that doesn’t piss Pennsylvania off as well…) doesn’t yank the gubernatorial chain, I don’t know what does. And if you think they ever got over the ’83 World Series, you clearly have never spent time in PA.
I think definitely PA is sponsoring the terrorism, albeit the failing miserably terrorism as evidenced by the fact th hat I can currently purchase any number of canned goods, frozen vegetables, confections, fresh produce, and Atlantic salmon at my grocery store. Why you would make the accusation that the stores in Hateful County were barren due to terroristic threats when you have not personally witnessed said barren shelves of Hateful County is beneath someone of your otherwise diligent nature.
BTW…it was not I who was so bold as to put a number on the amount of people who would get sick and/or die. It was that other SoulCrusher. He is clearly not rational. Although I don’t know how rational the original SoulCrusher is either, since he seems to believe that an effect way for terrorists to create hysteria amongst the masses is by making a statement on the Dagger.
Just the facts says
John those numbers are 9 days old, you are looking at a snapshot taken on March 19th. 2 days after St Patricks day.
SoulCrusher says
No. The REAL Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls has NOT put numbers on here that would spread the panic and I’ve been down playing the significance of this virus from the start. We will lose just as many or more people to the flu this season and the statistics back that statement up all day long. Now, State terrorism is the term I use to describe the GOVERNMENTAL sponsored terrorism by both the Federal and State governments who are acting as a tyranny on many subjects across this nation. There is no Constitutional Authority to regulate the behavior of people and all Federal statutes made that are intended to do just that are acts of fraud, war and treason, as well as terrorism. Any State agencies that further the Federal government’s acts of war against the public are part of that tyranny. My imitator is only interested in spreading fear on behalf of the government. That’s the bottom line because the SoulCrusher says so….
John P. Mallamo says
Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms. Soul Crusher
Sir, Ma’am
Regarding your post of 28 March, 1145, leading off with the asking which state sponsors terrorists.. I believe that you are the beta clone of the original Soul Crusher, not sure which series, and your purpose is to elicit a response, for your own self gratification. The topic, the available supply in grocery stores, is worth a discussion, though, as it is an indicator of what to expect.
We should start with a review of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. The very first level is survival. When announcements were made on what was going to happen, people immediately regressed to the first level. Toilet paper became more valuable than gold. I am sure there is a correlation that could be extracted, and maybe even a predictive model, using the sale of toilet paper as an index to the state of mind in the population. Once the basic survival needs were sufficiently satisfied people went to the next level, safety and security. Witness the increased sale of guns and ammunition. In all people reacted rationally and predictably to the situation. I am very much afraid that as people rise to successive levels they will begin to ignore the government message all together. Not an unexpected outcome, as the CDC and state health agencies have pretty much told the population to manage their individual circumstances themselves.
Now to the original Soul Crusher’s point about the principals of the situation. First there is the media, print newspaper, television/radio and social. They have relentlessly pounded the theme that the situation is apocalyptic and demanded a crisis. Not unusual and in fact a bit of a historical replay of yellow journalism, Remember the Maine and San Juan Hill. This time just on steroids. They got their crisis. Second there is the Medical Community. Those personnel directly involved in patient care were quickly overwhelmed. They are currently struggling with the conditions, and should be recognized of true heroes in the situation. Unfortunately, they are being pushed beyond their reasonable limits by the medical institution who are making decisions that are bending to the hysteria from the media, and by the desire to make no risk decisions on information that is less than perfect. Then there is the government, at all levels. These people have utterly failed to effectively communicate, establish reasonable policies and reduce the stress on the population. Result is the situation in the grocery store. Looking at the CDC statistics for 2019-2020, my question is how did the country manage to get through the flu season with between 38,000,000 and 54,000,000 cases, 400,000 to 730,000 hospitalizations and 24,000 to 62,000 deaths without this much hysteria?
I would offer these observations. No elected or appointed official wants to be accused of doing nothing. All of them are doing something, whether it is helpful or not. Secondly, none of them know how to turn this off.
Finally a comment on leadership styles is in order here. One extreme is the governor of New York who is loudly crying that we are at the end of times. He has ratcheted up his state so tight, that he cannot unwind it. Surrounding states have taken notice and are beginning to react appropriately for their own protection. The other extreme is the President of the United States. His approach has been less intense, applying pressure when needed. No doubt he can tighten as required, and will be able to unwind when desired. All other officials fall somewhere in between.

SoulCrusher says
I would like to add to MALLAMO’s response in that I have girlfriend in the medical field and they are ALL terrified because of the mass hysteria this situation has caused. The CDC and the WHO are only spreading fear amongst the masses, worldwide. There is a pandemic of a new viral infection and it’s effects are varying in degree upon which region of the world we live in. Whatever factors influence this varying degree have not fully been determined, but close living quarters and shared entrances to multiple homes in an apartment building probably are factors. When this is all over I bet the flu takes more lives worldwide than COVID-19.
SoulCrusher says
Well, it wasn’t this SoulCrusher that posted numbers. This SoulCrusher doesn’t post numbers. That was another SoulCrusher…maybe even YOU, SoulCrusher, posing as a different SoulCrusher and posting things counter to your own beliefs just so you could prompt yourself to perpetuate your beliefs. HA!Just kidding, SC.
Speaking of…are people buying into the idea that we are under control of tyrannical governments? Maybe…but they still can’t wait to get a check from.them. But I don’t think so. Such talk, as far as have experienced has been limited to one individual who posts on an online local news forum in a locale that he claims he doesn’t frequent. I’m wondering…from what history has shown us, tyrannical governments aren’t real big on public revelation and critique. Aren’t you concerned that you are in peril? That the bad guys are going to come in the middle of the night and steal your phone charger? I think you’re taking a risk here. If you don’t live in fear of a tyrannical government either it’s really not very good at tyranny, or it doesn’t exist.
That aside, what’s a person to do? What can we, as individual citizens do to create a world that you might find satisfactory? You seem to have thought this through pretty thoroughly…what is your manifesto, and how can we bring it to its fruition? What is your vision for a world without the current tyranny and oppression and subsequent fear and distress that we live under. We need a plan, here, SC. Why crush the souls of fellow citizens who know not what they do? They are living under tyranny! They have been hoodwinked! No, they are the ones who need salvation! The real issue is…how do we crush the souls of those who are doing this to our fellow citizens? The way out of oppression is not through the destruction of the oppressed, but through destruction of the oppressors! Tell us. Crusher of Souls, how can we the oppressed crush the souls of our oppressors?
Looking forward to hearing your plans. Remember folks, the path out of tyranny… you heard it here first on The Dagger.
SoulCrusher says
You’re the same toyrider that has been plaguing me for years. You use the SAME damn words, year after year and you can’t satisfy me in any way shape or form because I am not a lying piece of garbage, like you. If you really want me to believe you’re not the same person who has tried to talk me into circles for years, you might want to expand your vocabulary past “manifesto”, because only you use such terms. My “manifesto” is the US Constitution and quite frankly if you think that is a “manifesto”, well, I’ve got a rope with a noose on it for you. I don’t fear death because I am already dead, as according to the traitor government. The only way to reform a treasonous corporate government is to defund it. That’s all real Americans can do because the government legalized the murder of its citizens a long time ago. Cops can shoot you dead for any reason they want and they will lie, cheat and steal to cover it up for the treasonous government. It isn’t about oppression, it’s about treason. You know a lot about treason, don’t you? Did that answer your questions, traitor?
SoulCrusher says
Wait…when you say that you’re not a “lying piece of garbage”, what definition of “lying” are you referring to? Are you saying that you are not lying around, waiting for someone to pick you up and dispose of you properly? Do you spend a lot of time lying around? I don’t, although I did make a New Year’s Resolution to do so, thinking it would be an easy one to keep. HA! Not so, says life. Not much time for that. But the year is still young, and I am hopeful. One can never lose hope. Well, you can, but what good is that? If you can’t lie around, you might as well hope you can. Or so I’ve been told, although not by what I would necessarily consider reliable sources. I digress. On the other hand, if you are using “lying” to mean being dishonest…well, ok, you’re onto me. NOT! In order to be dishonest, I would have had to make a statement claiming fact, where I knew full well the opposite was so. Of course, not only have I not made statements and claimed them as fact when I knew it wasn’t so, but I’ve made very few statements of verifiable fact. I did say things such as “they’ve been hoodwinked!” but that was really just more supposition. After all, I can’t do research to find out if they, whoever they happen to be, have actually been hoodwinked, especially since I really don’t even have a firm definition of what “hoodwinked” actually means. I think the vast majority of what I said was speculation, as in it seems illogical for a state to sponsor terrorism to be conducted within its own borders. I don’t know for a fact that the state has done this, just that it seems counterproductive. Also, it would definitely seem that if someone were to sponsor terrorism and they found out that the said terrorist was focusing his or her efforts on an online local news source, I think they would consider that an unwise investment. Also… I don’t actually know if Pennsylvania is still sullen over the Phils losing to the O’s in ’83, but I do know that when I bring it up to Phillie’s fans, they typically don’t raise a glass to toast the O’s (toasty O’s! You like that? I did that for you.d) Also, the garbage thing…I am certain that I am not garbage. Garbage is something you put in the trash can. I’ve never been in the trash can. In fact, my name isn’t even Oscar. I’ve been to the landfill several times and each time they let me leave without question, and every time they let me leave MY garbage there. There was no confusion on the part of the supervisors at the landfill as to which was the garbage and which was me. They seem to be experts on this stuff, so I’m gonna have to go with that. You may have a different opinion on the matter. But yours is wrong.
What’s really funny is that I just started posting on the Dagger just a few days ago. I think you have me confused with someone else, which is disappointing. For someone who seems very much into the whole bit about who is stirring up the masses by posting silly comments on the Dagger, who is a state sponsored terrorist (again, not sure why a state sponsored terrorist would chose a medium like the Dagger as his or her mode of delivery, but hey, I’ll play along…) I would expect better of you. But that’s ok because on the other hand, it’s very entertaining. Although it is a little disturbing that you said “a rope with a noose on it”. A noose is made of one continuous piece of rope. It’s not a rope with a noose made of rope tied to it. That would be two pieces of rope, a luxury not always available to those who have need for such items. Also, saying that your manifesto is the Constitution but that the Constitution isn’t a manifesto doesn’t make a lot of sense either. First, I never said the Constitution was a manifesto, you did. Then you said that it wasn’t a manifesto and that if I thought it was that you had a noose made of rope that was tied to another piece of rope.But I don’t think it is, so the point is moot. Although I am wondering why you have a noose in the first place, whether it is made properly with one piece of rope or with two.
Traitor. Wow. Boy, you really know how to hit below the belt. That one is gonna take some time for the sting to wear off. Anyway…are you at all concerned that this tyrannical government is going to come and steal meaningful things from you, or worse come and take you away and put you on a farm in Nebraska? You could bring your rope with you and do something useful with it besides make nooses and threaten people who don’t call the Constitution a Manifesto.dsf
Seriously…I’m just messing with you. I’d really like to learn more about this information you’ve been sharing. You seem pretty passionate about your negativity, and I’m one who is always open to learning more about people’s passions. I’d like to get some facts from you about all this. I’d like to get some facts about all this,because in all honesty, I don’t know anything about treason, other than what I learned from watching “Falcon and the Snowman” twice (great soundtrack, btw). So no, you actually didn’t answer any of my questions, of which I have many. There’s much I can learn from you. Like how a government shooting its citizens makes me a traitor. I’m not quite following you on that. A government shooting its own citizens seems more like oppression to me, truth be told. Of course not only could I be wrong, I clearly am. That’s why I turn to you, o crusher of souls (very uplifting nick, btw). I’m not saying that I want to crush souls, mind you…I’m not really that dark of a person. I mean, I like nice weather and going to ballgames, I like to bake and visit family and friends when I can, hardly activities that seem appropriate to one who longs to crush souls.
Hey, thanks for your heart. You really do put your heart into all this. Obviously, you love our country and its values and ideals. Just be careful with your noose. Don’t go around advertising this. From what I’ve read that can be taken as a terroristic threat. Also, anger and hate aren’t among the American ideals. At least not mine.
SoulCrusher says
So you wrote a book to say absolutely nothing. A terroristic threat does not include using a rope and a noose on a traitor against the United States. Apparently, you have no regard for the principles of this nation and wish to push the policy of traitors against my country. There is only ONE law and that is the Constitution. What you regard as the law is nothing but fraud, war and treason, as well as your newest scumbag move, State Terrorism. You are nothing but a complete worm and a traitor. I do not consent to any institution created by man and that includes your Code of Rules and Regulations created by a traitor government. I can say what I want, when I want, because we don’t convict people who speak their minds, we convict people who cause harm with their actions and that is the American way. It might not be the Harford County way because the Harford County Judicial Department is the MOST treasonous group of traitors in this Country, but it IS the American way. Now choke on that traitor because the 1st Amendment TRUMPS your treason any day of the week.
SoulCrusher says
Actually,I have a lot of regard for the principals of the United States. In fact, I’d like to gather them all together into one big room and thank each and everyone of them. Granted, there are some I like better than the others, but I guess that’s to be expected when there are so many of them and they all have such different personalities. But they are all wonderful in their own way, and I’m grateful for them.
There is only one law, and that is the CONSTITUTION. That is what I regard as law. I can’t believe you would say that the Constitution is fraud, war, and treason. The Constitution is not any of those three things. It is law, and that is the law to me and to, I believe, the vast majority of Americans. I would expect higher of you than to declare it as being fraud, war, and treason. There is nothing treasonous about the Constitution, pal. And nothing war about it either. Fraud…no, nothing fraudulent about it. I think you should think before you make such comments in a public forum that has been infiltrated by government moles looking for people saying things that are not nice about our Constitution, which is what I consider law, and therefore do not consider fraud, war, and treason.
The state has not contacted me regarding becoming a sponsored terrorist at this point. But if they were to, would they contact me via email? Or would they just call? Also, what state do you think they would go after? It wouldn’t really make sense for the state to sponsor terror in its own state, but I think we covered that already. Is there a particular state that Maryland is angry at? Maybe its Delaware. Delaware takes away a lot of dollars from Maryland, what with tax free shopping and all that. But do you think Maryland would actually launch a terror campaign against Delaware? After all, you a lot of Marylander’s have to drive through Delaware to get to that cash cow by the sea, Ocean City. Wouldn’t seem prudent to start a war with a state whose roads you need to get the citizenry to the sales tax mecca of the Eastern seaboard.
I’m actually not a worm, either. We went through this with the garbage thing, but I can also confirm that I’m not a worm either. For one thing, worms can’t type. Well, at least, I’ve never seen one. I mean, I guess it’s possible that they can slither from one key to the next and sort of push down, but wow…can you imagine how long it would type a letter? And by letter I don’t mean like, a full letter like a message or note, I mean A LETTER. One single letter, like say, the letter D…no wait, let’s make it the letter S (because it most resembles a worm and so I’m guessing it would be a favorite of worms the world over). Think of how long it would take to just type an S. If you started on A, might not take too long because S is right next door. Conceivably, a worm could start on A, head over next door to S, and then while it’s their, bang out another S. That would be one way to know that the message is intended for you, and, it doesn’t take even a worm to realize it and get the message across.
I agree with you on this point at least…you can say what you want when you want, etc. First Amendment, baby! But think of it…if you really believed our government was oppressive and less than pleased with those who use their first amendment rights to call them out for this, if they have sanctioned the killing of its own citizens, why would you not be afraid that you are on its list? You have called them out for their evil, have said that they are corrupt and all kinds of other lovely things, you claim that they are out to get those who exert their liberty…so why are you not afraid of all this? I mean, if I thought the government approved of killing people and tried to blow their cover, I think I’d be at least a little concerned for my own welfare. But it doesn’t seem to bother you. It’s almost like you really enjoy saying all this stuff, but you don’t even believe it yourself because you have no fear whatsoever that the government is going to come and get you.
You even said “we don’t convict people who speak their minds, we convict people who cause harm with their actions”, yet you also said “the government legalized the murder of its citizens a long time ago. Cops can shoot you dead for any reason”. And, “For real, the authorities are the TERRORISTS”. That’s kind of contradictory, isn’t it? If we convict people who cause harm with their actions, that’s what we would hope for, right? We would want a government to protect us from those who would do us harm. “We don’t convict people who speak their minds”…but you then claim the government can legally murder you. If the authorities are convicting people who cause harm, but not people who speak their minds, how are they terrorists? If they were terrorists, it would seem like they wouldn’t care if people harmed it’s citizens, and would probably not take kindly to criticism that they did. So which is the American way? I also have First Amendment rights, and they are not subject to your approval, nor dependent upon your labeling as approved or not. Freedom of speech is not everyone’s right to speak their mind as long as you approve of what they have to say. If you think someone is inciting a riot or trying to commit an act of terrorism, go ahead and call someone. Call Homeland Security or the FBI, or the state police, or whoever you feel would best handle domestic terrorism. It’s not only your right as an American, I’d say it’s your duty. So go ahead and turn me in. Or, just keep calling me names on the Dagger. Definitely more entertaining and would not waste valuable tax dollars.
What’s most amusing in all this is that I’m actually not the SoulCrusher that made the post about all the numbers regarding the coronavirus. From what I can tell, there are at least three people now using the name “SoulCrusher”. You’ve got me mixed up with another one, which has actually been really fun! But hey, keep going! You’re a great source of entertainment! And you’re easy to mess with. Hey, seriously, stay well.
SoulCrusher says
I think there are at least 4 SoulCrushers on here. I’m not the one who posted the numbers recently, not am I the one who mistook principals vs. Principles… and I’m certainly not the douche who calls everyone who disagrees with him a traitorous scumbag. (He’s the one who lives in his mommy’s basement, and recently admitted that he likes adam schiff’s shaft)
Its just so hard to keep track anymore… oh well!
SoulCrusher says
Wow, a Dagger Editor. How about that? I’m not afraid of the government because I have nothing to lose. Death doesn’t mean anything to those whom are already dead. I have nothing YOUR government can take from me. I made sure of that. The only thing I need to do is keep you Dagger Dogs running for cover, while keeping you pork licking, cop loving scumbags running your treasonous mouths. The Dagger used to be a pig friendly bunch of Harford County homos that love circle jerking each other off. I turned the Dagger into the voice of freedom. If you don’t like it, don’t read it, but it makes me happy knowing it means that much to each of you to try so hard to get me off of here. I love being hated and the more you hate me the more I get off on it. Go screw yourselves because if it wasn’t for the Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls the Dagger would’ve had to be renamed to the “Butter Knife” because it was SO dull.
SoulCrusher says
Wow.
You really are a moron.
SoulCrusher says
Well, I don’t know. The voice of freedom? Anyone who posts commentary that disagrees with yours you call a traitor, a terrorist, etc. Anyone can protect the rights of someone they agree with. It takes a real patriot to protect the rights of those they disagree with. That is not you. I think you present more anger and hatred than most other people on this forum. I can’t speak for others, but I certainly don’t hate you for it. I do wonder what happened in your life to bring you to the conclusions that you express, that you are dead, have nothing to lose, etc. I don’t think anyone who wants to “crush souls” has come to this point without having their own souls crushed, which is tragic. I have no doubt that you get off on being hated, as it seems to have become part of your identity which again, is sad…and I don’t mean this in a sarcastic or pitying manner, just that it is really unfortunate to think someone has had a life that has brought them to the point where this is their identity and they seek reinforcement of it. You definitely seem like an intelligent person..which makes it all the more difficult to watch. One would hope that whatever has brought you to this, your intelligence could serve to help you overcome whatever struggles you have experienced that have locked you into this persona. Whether or not the Dagger was a “dull” space before you began posting here…is that really relevant in terms of what you wanted to accomplish with your life?
I’m sure you will probably counter this with something similar to your other posts, but I take no issue with that. I wish you the best in finding a way out of this angry place life has placed you.
SoulCrusher says
Screw you and the Harford County Judicial Department. I don’t forgive and I never forget. There is nothing you can say that is ever gonna change that….
SoulCrusher says
By the way, there is no such thing as a patriot that protects those that wish to abrogate the Constitution. The corporate traitors must either go to jail for 5 years and forego ever being a government employee again, or they can hang themselves.

Mr./Mrs./ Miss/ Ms/ Just the facts
Sir, Ma’am
RE your post 29 March 2020 0914 I am not sure which numbers you are discussing. The numbers in my post were taken directly from the Maryland Department of Health website, immediately before posting. Currently, 29 March 2020, 1035, the number from that site indicate that there are 1239 cases in Maryland, 23 in Harford County, 12,354 negative tests, 277 hospitalizations and 39 released from isolation. These numbers do not appear to support your premise either.

John P. Mallamo says
Mr. /Mrs./Miss/ Ms Soul Crusher
It is difficult to determine whether you are the original Soul Crusher, or the Beta unit clone who has highjacked his title. None the less let’s look at your premise as recently stated and that you stated on 22 March 2020
Is the curve flattening? Looking at the total number of cases will not give that information. Look at the change in the number of daily new cases to determine whether the rate of increase is increasing at an increasing, decreasing or flat rate. Taking the data from 12 march to 26 march it appears that the data is highly variable. The curve starts out flat, then trends upward at 17 March, trends down at 19 March, bottoms at 21 March, Spikes at 22 March, trends down 23 March and then spikes again at 25 March. Overall, the curve seems to suggest that the situation is not that bad and may be improving. No doubt the inflection points should be investigated for further analysis
I believe that the original Soul Crusher is correct in his assessment of the situation regarding the COVID 19. Clinically, it does not appear to be any worse than the seasonal flu. That is CDC guidance.
Forensically, data from CDC supports that the COVID 19 virus is no more pathogenic or virulent than the seasonal flu, at least in the United States. . Recent developments are indicating that the COVID 19 virus is not mutating, which is good news. The European Union is a different story. There may be some other phenomena that is causing the number of cases and deaths
Statistically the situation in the United States does not appear to be that bad. The entire country is being driven by the response in states of New York, New Jersey, Washington and California.. At this point, there is no way to flatten the curve in those states. It would seem that a rational approach would be to isolate those states from the rest of the country. Within those states, the counties with the highest incidence of infected population should be isolated from the rest of the state.
As for your mention of the Spanish flu, without a full reconstruction of the events and a better forensic description of the virus that caused the flu, comparing the experience of St. Louis, Baltimore and Philadelphia is not of any great benefit. Focusing on the single event, a parade, to explain the difference in deaths is misleading. Baltimore and Philadelphia were and are port cities. People and equipment were rapidly moving through them in great volumes to support WW I. I would submit that this was more the cause of the higher incidence than the parade or any other single event.
I would state that the communication of the situation could be improved at all levels. Important information to make sense of all of this is the number of active cases, the number hospitalized, the number in critical care units, the number of deaths and the number of recovered. What is most interesting is that the number recovered in the US is very low. Could be that it is not actively tracked.
As for fact and science, google Phillip K. Russell or David Huxoll.

John, It is worse than the seasonal flu by a factor of 100 in mortality at least. In fact, it is worse than cholera. Watch the video below. People should not freak out or be fearful but they should stay at home and be safe. On a personal note, you should stay home. You are in the high risk group. I do not want to see you suffer through this horror show. Be well and be safe.

SoulCrusher says
Well, I’m going to have to disagree with you on that one. We don’t know how many infections exist because it goes thru some people with very minimal effects. They are only testing those with symptoms that are largely contributed to those with bad case scenarios. As a matter of fact, my girlfriend had a cold when this started and they refused her request for a test and she works in the medical field.
SoulCrusher says
Hey, Mallamo,
You’re just as much a traitorous scumbag as everyone else on this forum. You can talk as much as you want about your perceptions of this pandemic, but the bottom line is that people are dying, and nothing is really being done to protect us all.
The crusher of souls, holes and moles is ready to spread the truth!
My mommy said that everything will be OK! And I believe everything she says… and so should you – because the SoulCrusher said so, and that’s the bottom line!
SoulCrusher 3:16!
I’m awesome! Just ask my mom!
SoulCrusher says
Shut your mouth and no your role! Mallamo makes perfect sense when we are talking about this virus. Just because the Dagger is no longer a place for Marc “Always” Eaton and his 300lb daughter to advertise the next Bull and Oyster Roast at the Fire Station, the Dagger Editorial Staff and a couple of former Task Force fairies want to banish the Crusher of Souls. You scumbag traitors are on here promoting fear and trying to tell everyone that the government is their friend. That Cops are heroes and that people’s children should want to admire them. It makes me sick. There isn’t a law abiding Cop in Hateford County because they break the law to enforce the Code. The Code isn’t the law. It is the Rules and Regulations of government employees which those same government employees don’t follow, all while covering up their relentless treason against the very people who pay their salaries. It’s like this, all Police officers, Politicians, Prosecutors, Judges and Lawyers are complete and utter traitors against my Country. Those in Harford County are 1000 times worse because they bask in their treason and then want those they have destroyed to thank them for it. I don’t think so…
WhatMattersisBlue says
Mallamo I appreciate your contributions to this conversation. Your presentation of the facts is truthful and unbiased. Using the daily metrics of Total Covid-19 cases and New Covid-19 cases is a clear indication that the USA is healing. Unfortunately, the posting of Total Covid-19 Cases and Number of Deaths promotes fear and misunderstanding. The number of deaths will always increase. You can’t undo a death statistic or expect to see a drop in that number as an accurate representation of progress in overcoming this virus.
SoulCrusher I have said before that when you post it is a learning experience. It is clear that many people use your identity and resort to crude and argumentative comments. Anyway, when a Covid patient is admitted to the hospital, the hospital receives $19000.00 and if they are put on a ventilator the hospital receives $39000.00. Sound like a money grab to you?
SoulCrusher says
Yep…I agree with SoulCrusher #3…
The old, gay, 14 year old, living in mommy’s basement SoulCrusher = Moron.
Get. A. Life….
SoulCrusher says
If the Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls is all those things you say, then why are you using my moniker? I’ve never heard of ANY idiot, but you, think that a person who is 14 is considered old. Furthermore, if I can’t live in any of my own homes, which there is now 3 by the way, I guess I’ll have to live in Mommy’s basement forever. If I don’t have any expectancy of privacy in my OWN home I guess I’ll just use Mommy’s expectancy of that same privacy. Makes sense to me. Besides, the basement is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. You Dagger Dogs really are a bunch of peter puffing scumbags. You can keep furthering the treason of the Harford County Judicial Department all you want, but I can’t do that and I definitely can’t promote the Coronavirus as this world ending disease that the fat Jackoff governor has just used to declare martial law. Doesn’t Hogan realize that martial law is specifically banned in the Maryland Constitution? I guess Hogan is just a traitor like the rest of you Dagger Dogs. – “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety”. – Benjamin Franklin
Sword of Light says
Frederick County is providing actual instruction to its students. They are absolutely kicking Harford County’s ass.
It’s inexcusable. The “take a mindful walk” shitpile that was dumped in parents was obviously not created by actual teachers.
Heads need to roll.
SoulCrusher says
Yeah, well, Baltimore City has put ALL classwork on their website and the kids are supposed to be participating. My sister downloaded over 80 pages of curriculum from the website and her “step” daughter is required to participate. Harford County can do the same and more than likely they have. In times like this you have to do the best you can with what you got. I have confidence HCPS will do all it can in light of the limitations it has. Now, if we can just get them to stop the policies of the Democrat party and the teaching of those policies to the youth, well, we’d be getting somewhere….
Ryan Burbey says
Well, you can start with the HCPS Legislative Delegation. For a decade we have been telling them that we needed more funding. On numerous occasions I asked them why we were not included in the GCEI funding but Frederick was. Crickets. When you operate on a sub-par budget which hovers at the lowest per pupil funding in the state and when you delegation refuses to make compromises or seek additional funding, this is what happens. It is also an issue on a county level. When taxes were cut three years in a row during a recession and you do not meet the Board of Education funding request ever, you do not have the resources necessary to respond quickly to a crisis. You do realize the mindfulness walk is intended to help students cope with the stress and is part of PE, right? Was HCPS supposed to send you a quiz on the rules of soccer? Look, everyone is working hard to get everything coordinated. Be patient. Here is a link to the FAQ which delineates what is happening and why.
https://www.hcps.org/coronavirus/
Accountability says
I just read your comment and would like to respond.
When I was a teacher (for over thirty years) here’s what I heard from HCPS administrators: there is no excuse not to have top quality lessons planned for every and all classes, for every and all students, regardless of situation. Period. Didn’t matter if you were sick or if your mother just died. Didn’t matter if your infant son was hospitalized with seizures. Didn’t matter if you didn’t get the funding you needed or if the outdated technology that you were commanded to use failed. It didn’t matter if it was your last day before going out on leave for a serious medical condition. There is no excuse for your lessons to not be as good as if you were teaching in Utopia. And there is no lessening of accountability. All the things I mentioned above are situations where I saw colleagues observed, evaluated, and held accountable. And as we all know, there is no real recourse; the appeal process goes through the people who did the observing, evaluating, and accounting in the first place; they, nor their superiors, are EVER going to say that any authority of HCPS has done something less than perfectly appropriate when it comes to holding teachers accountable.
I see no reason whatsoever to expect less of HCPS as an entity than they expect of their individuals. There is NO excuse for their ineptitude in this situation. Unexpected? It’s their job to expect it, just like it’s the teachers job to be effective regardless of unexpected situations. Lack of funding? It’s their responsibility to make the funding work, just like its the teachers responsibility to have their rooms fully stocked and beautifully appointed. Some kids/families don’t have access to technology? Gee that’s a shame; I guess they’ll have to find a way to teach those kids without it, just like teachers are expected to teach every kid with an IEP.
What HCPS IS doing is what they always do: dump it on the teachers. Dump all the responsibility on the teachers to come up with the ways and means of doing things. That way, when something happens and parents become irate, HCPS can deny responsibility and hold the individual teachers accountable. THAT is what HCPS does best.
HCPS had an obligation to the students and families of Harford County, and they have failed miserably. NO EXCUSE.

I have no difficulty teaching my children. The correspondence I received for my children are the standards that are the expected outcome of instruction. I imagine these were cut and pasted along with some suggestions. I feel I would be more effective if the standards were written in plain language. The majority of the parents are not educators. The math outcomes were easy to understand, but the ELA standards were written for educators. Provide attachments, practice sheets, etc. parents. You certainly have enough talent at the teacher, supervisor, coordinator level to make this happen.

Bank Of America is hijacking the SBA money for small business’s and limiting its access to current debtors of the Bank only. This is not supposed to happen. All else can go in the corner and die. They have turned this into a bank bailout. They are not allowing non debtor bank customers to access the money. There is no such allowance in this relief program. This is criminal.

Yea! Like I said before – This is clearly no worse than the regular Flu.
Just the facts says
except it it’s 100 times deadlier and the infection rate is 3 times as bad. Other than that it’s just like the flu…..
Idiot
SoulCrusher says
Where did you here that? From the CDC Mythology class you’re taking? Give me a break….
LOL says
2.5 trillion dollars and 16 million out of work in 3 weeks … I don’t remember a flu season like that
SoulCrusher says
Nope, neither have I, but they didn’t shut the country down for far more dangerous outbreaks and I think a governmental forced closure of commerce must be considered in your statement. You Dems love seeing Americans suffer and I bet you hope our economy tanks and it never recovers just so you can regain control of the treason machine in DC.
SoulCrusher says
Oh, I see the regular Democratic traitors against America and the imitator are on here starting the same crap they always do. The truth is from Feb. 1 through March 28 of this year, 435,808 people died in this Country. About 1,150 were classified as having died of COVID-19, and 23,729 were classified as having died of the flu or pneumonia. That data is 15 days old and we all know that the COVID-19 deaths have been on the rise, but we hear nothing about the flu deaths and the CDC website has become very unclear on deaths related to influenza on their website this past week, to say the least. Regardless of what you three morons got to say, the flu has still killed more Americans this year than COVID-19 and I don’t think we will see data that is accurate involving this subject anymore this season because the governmental traitors and the CDC need to save face. Let me remind you morons that the CDC estimates that influenza was associated with more than 35.5 million illnesses, more than 16.5 million medical visits, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths during the 2018–2019 influenza season. Let that sink in fuktards before you proclaim COVID-19 the world ender that you scumbags want everyone to think it is. In a few weeks, business will open back up whether you dipshits like it or not and your spread of the constant government sponsored terrorism is VERY unappreciated.
LOL says
So we are hearing nothing about flu deaths but somehow you know COVID-19 is just like the flu. You may want to give Jarred a jingle he could probably use a person with you grasp of science…..
SoulCrusher says
The statistics don’t lie. The CDC itself says it is contributing most pneumonia deaths to COVID-19 and NOT the flu. How does such a thing change? The same models that represent COVID-19 can represent how the flu is spread every year. Quite frankly, if this wasn’t an election season and the DemoTraitors hadn’t started weaponizing COVID-19 into political dipshitery I don’t think we’d be seeing what we are seeing right now. Surprise, surprise, surprise, can you believe we don’t agree on this at all.
SoulCrusher says
Well, it is an election season and the DemoTraitors have started weaponizing COVID-19 into political dipshitery. What’s a fella to do about all that? Granted, you’re doing your part by moaning about it on a tiny, obscure news thread, but that may not be enough to overthrow the sinister forces and the lecherous traitors that seek to instill the belief that covid-19 is as bad or worse than the flue. And when I say flue, I mean flue. As in all that soot and dust and what not. Ever breath THAT into your lungs? I mean you’d have to, given that it is your lungs where what you breath in goes…you can’t very well breath soot into your kidney. Even still…I’d say breathing soot into your lungs could be much worse than covid-19, making it worse than the flue. Where’s the research on that? Suspiciously absent from any government database that I can find. In fact when I search “covid 19 compared to flue”, it only gives me results involving influenza. Not a SINGLE search engine will cough up the info. Tell me THAT isn’t a coverup, especially when so many people are coughing up so much other stuff…
Look, the point is…I’ve been reading your stuff for about a week, and I’m here to say that I’m with you and ready to mobilize when you have your plans assembled. Time to do more than just shout at the few who dare to read the treacherous pages of the Dagger.
Let me know what you come up with.
Just the facts says
So why dd trump give control of the CDC to …. checks notes…. the “DemoTraitors”
SoulCrusher says
I never said Trump gave control to the “DemoTraitors”. Check your notes again scumbag. They were already there….just for the record, it was hard enough for Trump to get his own cabinet affirmed by the treasonous scumbags in Congress, yet alone revamp the CDC. Apparently, you traitors have forgotten that the former traitor in chief, O’Bama, called for the Democrats to stall and prevent him from doing his job that the electorate voted him in to do. The Democrat Party is the seat of treason in this country and it is about time the public does something about that. Hopefully, the next election will sweep away many of the traitors in DC and Annapolis, but I don’t have any faith in that. The American people have a way of shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to elections in this country….as for the imitator, “yawn”.

In Maryland you can’t get a test unless you have symptoms and likely have COVID-19. So how come there are 42,815 negative tests? What exactly do this people have?

In my opinion, the words I type are far more informative than you treasonous terrorists trying to convince the public that we are all gonna die from a virus that is no more dangerous than the flu. Why don’t you tell us why any of us should have a plan to remove traitors when Article 3 Section 3 already exists. I shouldn’t have to plan to remove them. They should be removed because they broke the law and government employees can’t break the law and remain employed. Lastly, are you asking yourself the question because you’re going by my moniker? Traitor.
SoulCrusher says
I like turtles
SoulCrusher says
WTF? That’s lovely…You like turtles. You are a complete idiot and a fuktard.
Jim says
That’s 100% correct! SoulCrusher is a complete idiot and a fuktard!!
SoulCrusher says
Just like your mother…
SoulCrusher says
I mean complaining in it’s most legitimate form, which IS informing- informing of treasonist terrorists as and scumbag lackies that have infiltrated and are filling otherwise empty heads with tales of great pending woe and other stuff that is likely to keep one up at night! I can’t tell you why we should have a plan to remove traitors…except that Article 3 Section 3 is part of what has been infected by those treacherous scaliwags! You are, 100% correct…we should not have to remove them! Yet they are there and here we are, you and I and the few others like us providing information on a tiny, obscure digital news thread. But enthusiasm such as yours can only be contained for so long…I KNOW you have a plan to remove these jerk-brain traitors! And I want you to know that I am in on any plan you recommend. I am living in fear…fear that they may have…god forbid it…infiltrated your mind! You are struggling to recognize my sincerity and the solidarity that exists between us based on the singular goal of thwarting a common enemy! For I have taken your name out of great reverence for your ideals…you are SoulCrusher, we are the SoulCrushers, and through our movement we will crush the souls of the bad guys!
Please tell me of your plan so we can together march forward with the intent of doing something that will actually accomplish something. Your information campaign has been a success in gathering those of like-mind. Now we must act. Please advise.
SoulCrusher says
Go fuck yourself …traitor.
SoulCrusher says
Exactly what we can say to them once we have subdued them and removed them from their lofty perches! Now you must understand how much I concur with the information you have been disseminating on this outlet…do not let the lackeys infiltrate your mind to where you can not recognize a sincere compatriot! I fear you have faced rejection of your ideals so long that you are distrustful of those who are like minded. Fear not! I assure you that you have met someone who believes in your vision, who shares your dream of seeing all those foo-foo faces put somewhere that makes them very uncomfortable, like for example, an Orioles game. We must act before their agenda grows to encompass even those who do not know what “agenda” means. Tell me of your plans to take this beyond mere information on this dust speck in cyberspace! I am ready to act on your plans. I took with great anticipation to our future!
SoulCrusher says
Hey guys, count me in. For I too would like to be part of the SoulCrusher revolution! I have long awaited this day of unity. This is our time! All who wish to crush souls of the traitors, show the original SoulCrusher that you too are a SoulCrusher. I am waiting for your guidance, oh exalted one!
SoulCrusher says
My guidance is “wish in one hand, shit in the other and see which one fills up first”. “Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one”. “Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth”. “The time is near at hand which must determine whether Americans are to be free men or slaves”. “There is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily”. “Give me liberty or give me death”. – All of my guidance is from famous Americans of the past. I’ll let you morons figure out who said what.
SoulCrusher says
You said it, and that’s good enough for me. And I think if we follow you, our/your wishes will be filled first! We, who will not give up freedom for the sake of a little security (ha! Who needs security when you have the SoulCrusher manifesto???), we Americans who will be free to crush souls of infidels, and we who will stay on the straight course! Our time is now, and it is your time to understand that you have inspired others to do your bidding, and we are not joking. So, lay it upon us. Tell us how we can bring your vision to its fruition. Don’t delay now, we’re anxious to get this ball rolling.
SoulCrusher says
Manifesto? Infidels? The Dagger needs to be careful of this imposter. He seems to be rather ISIS or Al Qaida to me. Your use of the word “infidels” is straight out of a Muslim Extremist playbook and I’m sure you’re nothing but a Koran thumping, Muhamad worshiping scumbag and a Democratic traitor against my country. Now, if we can just get your 300lb. daughter to start giving your meds again you can resume your life of “Always” Eaton….
SoulCrusher says
Back to the original issue at hand, will someone please tell me when quarantines were authorized to isolate the healthy? There is no power or authority to quarantine healthy people. Quarantines are meant to isolate those infected with a disease, not vice versa. That is what quarantines are all about. This whole shutdown is draconian to say the least and a perfect example of our government operating under tyranny. There is a movement to reopen Maryland, as well as the rest of the US. Why don’t you imitators go to Facebook and search “Reopen Maryland”? Then you will see that the Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls isn’t the only one who thinks this virus is horse shit….
WhatMattersisBlue says
Hi SoulCrusher! I just mentioned you in a reply to a Mallamo post. It is obvious that several other people are using your identity to post crude and argumentative comments. Anyway, when a Covid patient is admitted to the hospital the hospital receives $13000.00 and if they are put on a ventilator the hospital receives $39000.00. Sound like a money grab to you?
SoulCrusher says
SoulCrusher says
I think several people are using fouls language and other poor choices of words in the name of SoulCrusher. But I think SoulCrusher also used some questionable language as well. To make it worse, he is pointing it at SoulCrushers who clearly stand with him in unity.This shutdown IS Draconian and the traitors and jerk-brains have no authority to ask people to stay past sneezing distance or shut down various establishments where they may be tempted to invade the space of others. ALL of us SoulCrushers who stand with SoulCrusher believe crushing of heads, holes, souls, and goals of these treacherous lecherous ambidextrous who wont let people stand nervous need to be dealt with MORE than simple distribution of information regarding their evil plot.
What is to be done? We can’t let them win. Surely, SoulCrusher, you must have SOME idea of how we can rid our world of these bad guys! What is it you intend to do about them?
SoulCrusher says
You know, now that I think about it…I also don’t want traitors in our government. I don’t want elected officials violating the constitutional rights of citizens. I’ve been reading “SoulCrusher” for a long time, with his constant and continual “dissemination of information”. We got it. We all got the message. Thank you.
And we agree. We don’t want this. Now what? Now that we know that our government has been infiltrated with people uninterested in the rights of citizens, except where they can trample on them, what’s next? Someone who speaks out with so much passion for a cause must surely have some idea of how to bring life to that cause. Grandstanding is fine at the onset, but if it is not at some point followed by action, it just becomes noise that makes people block their ears.
So I’m with you and the other “SoulCrushers”. Tell us how you plan to approach this problem you are so passionate about. I am very sincere about this, as I would like to rid our government of the evils of which you speak so eloquently about.
SoulCrusher says
I’ve actually been wondering about that. What souls have you been crushing? You come on the Dagger, spout off, then insult anyone who doesn’t agree either the context or content of your comments, but you never seem to do anything about your supposed beliefs other than this. How exactly is that “crushing” to anyone? Your telling people that you crush souls is really not crushing anyone’s soul. Like several others have asked…I would like to hear what actions you propose to actually do anything to rectify your perceived injustices. Several people have stated that they agree with your perspective, but you have responded to them with the same vitriol as with those who disagree with you. It seems as though you have absolutely nothing to offer but commentary and the people who agree with your comments are the ones who are revealing it; so the only thing you can do is attack them.
So as others have requested…do tell us what actions you plan on taking to support your comments. I don’t believe anyone wants to have traitors of our nation participating in government, so I do believe you have plenty of support in that regard. What actions are you taking to correct this?
SoulCrusher says
What the hell is wrong with you imitators? You sue the State under Article 3 Section 3 proclaiming MASS FRAUD, WAR AND TREASON. This nullifies all taxation until the Great HATE State of Maryland stops enforcing statutes without a common law victimization present and the removal of every State Employee that has EVER taken part in the charade. This is ALL legally sound and the only way to reform a treasonous corporate government is to defund it. However, your current government is already doing this by implementing the corona virus hoax and shutting down the whole country over a flu type ailment. Let’s be honest, this isn’t like Ebola where you bleed from every orifice until your dead. This is a flu bug and it is no where as deadly as the Spanish Flu epidemic that killed millions. You can ALL go straight to hell because I don’t want to guide you. I have no use for that. As for crushing Souls, why don’t you ask Sean, Aaron, David, John and the rest of the Marston homosexual brigade just how great their lives are now? Why don’t you ask Bill Donahue how the MIA is treating him? Why don’t you ask Elizabeth Bowen where she is going to go now that she has been outed as a traitor? But, most importantly, why don’t you ask that Panamanian disease, Angela Eaves, when is she ever going to wash her dirty ape ass?
SoulCrusher says
Well why haven’t you sued the state then? And why haven’t you asked Angela Eaves about her primate gluteus? None of those people are souls that you have crushed. And how many state employees have participated in this charade? Do you have names? When are we going to proceed with these matters?? You are the father of a movement, and our eyes are on you for leadership!
SoulCrusher says
Agreed. You’ve long been saying that these traitors must be stopped. It’s time to take a leadership role in doing just that. Presenting information is useless. Mocking those who disagree is useless. Mocking those who agree with you and want you to take action is useless. Please don’t reveal yourself as a useless blowhard who won’t even act on his own cause. If you aren’t willing or able to take action against the wrongs that you supposedly despise, you will from this point forward be seen as nothing but a faceless whiner who needs to puff his (her?) chest behind a silly moniker that pretends to imply fear, while everyone else has a laugh.
SoulCrusher says
Be careful. He may call you a traitor which of course, would be way too much for your soul to handle.
SoulCrusher says
First of all, you guys don’t seem to care about Article 3 Section 3, even though it is the only crime defined in the Constitution. That is how serious Treason is. Treason can not be redefined or sub-divided into statutes because there is no authority ordained to Congress to do that. There is no statute of limitations, nor is there any immunity involving treason. Congress broke the law by codifying treason and has tried to change the meaning of treason, just like they did with terrorism. That which is unconstitutional is forbidden. Statutes that are unconstitutional are a nullity and convictions that are unconstitutional must be considered void. In reality, the conviction was void before it was handed down. An unconstitutional statute is not law, creates no office and those whom execute such statutes are in fact doing so without jurisdiction. When a government official or employee acts where they have no jurisdiction, well, that’s treason right there. ANY action by the government where in doing so violates the covenant of the Constitution is an act of war against it. When you war against the Constitution you are in fact warring against WE THE PEOPLE, whom are the United States. That makes those whom have done so traitors and enemies of me and my people. WE THE PEOPLE don’t forgive those whom tread upon us and WE THE PEOPLE will strike out like the copperhead on the Gadsden Flag. The Federal government was never given permission to make law for the citizens and the States can only regulate based upon the principles of Police Power, which must fall in line with the common law. When it doesn’t, well, that’s treason right there. There is only one true penalty for treason and it was set by the 2nd Continental Congress. You should look that up because Congress was allowed to set the penalty, but never given authority to change that penalty once set.
SoulCrusher says
Yes, yes, yes, and yes. We get all that. We take it very seriously. We take you very seriously. We want to know what, other than habitually declare all of this, what you plan to do about it. We believe you. Honest. Now we want to know what action you plan to take. It’s not that complicated. Either you have intent to act on this injustice, or you are a complete woos who, for all your declarations and presentation of yourself as a being to be respected and feared, have absolutely no backbone and are nothing more than a frustrated wannabe patriot spouting off on an obscure internet local news thread.
We sincerely hope that is not the case and you are prepared to seriously address these matters. Treason is not to be taken lightly, and doing nothing but calling out supposed traitors without follow up action is cowardly. Please tell us your plan for eradicating those who seek to harm our constitutional rights and liberties.
SoulCrusher says
Yes! Me too!! I’m with the Crusher of souls, holes, and moles! Please help us understand what must be done to fix this mess that the constitutional traitors have created!
If you have no action, we’ll ask have to concede that you’re just the bloated, insecure, childish, name-calling, immature, living-in-your-mommy’s basement douchebag that we’re all afraid you really are.
Please, crusher of souls… Tell us what your real plans are. We are with you!!
True Harford Republican says
These comments back and forth are hilarious. Keep them coming. LMMFAO
WhatMattersisBlue says
TrueHarfordRepublican I couldn’t agree with you more. Aside from biased, crude, and mud slinging comments, a voice of reason occasionally shines through. It is interesting, thought provoking, and hilarious all rolled into one. What else are we supposed to do while on “house arrest”?
WhatMattersisBlue says
Oh boy!! Obama believes Biden has all of the qualities needed to be President.
Corruption, cognitive decline, inability to put two sentences together, or his skill in sniffing out the scent of a woman – those qualities?!?!
Sophie says
Ha! Those qualities have worked well for the guy in there now!!
WhatMattersisBlue says
Boys will be boys! I don’t know about you, but I like a man who can hold an intelligent conversation. Oh wait a minute…Clinton just reminded me how he dealt with the anxiety of being President.
SoulCrusher says
Boys will be boys, unless they’re in a Catholic church where they then find themselves to be little girls…
WhatMattersisBlue says
Which SoulCrusher are you? Anything regarding the Catholic Church and its handling of pedophiles is disgraceful. I stand by your beliefs that something horrible happened in the Catholic Church which included payoffs and coverups. The same can be said about our political leaders. To make myself clear, I will never defend nor condone misconduct in a public official. However, allegations and accusations can damage and destroy one’s good name and reputation. That being said, if the country is selective about who gets another look (investigation) then we are not a free and just society. We have all witnessed Biden rubbing, cuddling, and sniffing women. A woman in his employ has come forward with facts, a complaint, that she was a victim of sexual assault.
Doesn’t it bother anyone that the media and the Democratic Party are giving him a pass? Obama believes that Biden has qualities needed in a President.
SoulCrusher says
In hindsight, O’Bama lacked the qualities of a President because when he left his office he intentionally interfered with the agenda of the next during the transition of power. That’s not supposed to happen. I don’t think Biden can complete three sentences without a gaff. I think Trump and Biden will have some interesting debates and that will make good comedy. I’m waiting for Biden to challenge Trump to a push-up contest. I really don’t think the Democrats fielded a decent nominee and once again O’Bama interfered in the Primary showing us he is still in charge of the Democrat Party. Other Presidents never did that. They stepped away quietly into the sunset as that is what is supposed to happen. I really have come to believe that O’Bama wants to run the world and it wouldn’t surprise me if he tries to become the ruler at the UN. He is beloved in other countries and by those who want to see the United States destroyed or fail. I personally think he betrayed the American people and has continuously tried to do harm to the United States since he left office. I think a once great man will be regarded as a disgrace in future generations…
SoulCrusher says
Whatmattersisblue –
Go pound sand! you suck!!
Doesn’t it bother you that the current guy in office has been clearly demonstrating the same behaviors that you are upset about biden being accused of…?
He’s even admitted to annoying women.
Screw you, you fuktard! You’re A traitor, just like everyone else on this message board!
SoulCrusher says
Ah, my imitator. Look moron, the current President was elected into office when everyone already knew what he was. He has done a great job until this virus screwed it all to hell. Now, you are a fuktard when you type shit because everyone knows the REAL Crusher of Souls thinks Trump is the only politician that has America’s best interests in mind. I applaud sticking it to the WHO and if I were in charge I’d get out of the UN. We’ve done fought their wars for long enough and we’ve funded their world for long enough. You’re a traitor because you believe in the Democrat party and their completely un-American policies and procedures. Remember, if it’s unconstitutional it’s illegal. Nothing but a complete act of fraud. It’s also an act of warring against the Constitution and that is TREASON. Maybe one day you’ll get it, but you need to read up before that will ever happen..
SoulCrusher says
Of course that is what you would do, because you are a complete douche!… but an intelligent person would certainly realize that all of your arguments are complete bullshit!
Go fuck yourself, and continue to sit in your mommy’s basement while not contributing anything to society beyond your dribblings on a miniscule website.
Idiot!
SoulCrusher says
I already contributed to society. My last contribution was the complete stoppage of dog sniffs on the doors of the public. You punks can’t use administrative warrants anymore to get around the Constitution, the 4th Amendment and the proper rulings of the Supreme Court. You little bitches did commit treason and now none of you are allowed to be task force homosexuals anymore! There’s my contribution fuktard! Furthermore, that little legless traitor you all called an State’s Attorney, who did use his family to try and get a pay raise, got outed too! My only question is why hasn’t that little stinker been hung by his traitor neck yet? Look, you and the rest of you scumbag traitors are on here trying to talk the Crusher down. I couldn’t really sue you fucks for treason until yesterday! It has now been 10 years. Your conviction contract is null and void. There is no remedy that can be made and none of the remedies you pieces of garbage could have mad are adequate. The entire Judicial Department of Maryland is nothing but a treasonous, fraudulent scam and every one of you need to face the full penalty of law. Now, go scratch Joe Cassilly’s balls and drink that shit bag for him, traitor.
SoulCrusher says
Oh, imitator,
You think you can outwit the crusher of souls?
I need you to understand that my words are the way, and the only clear path to making sure that we ahh survive this plot of the traitorous government!
Everyone must party attention to my directions that I give on this website… one u figure out what they are.
In the very soon, coming days, I will publish my manifesto of many, many words – it will tell everyone what they should do to avoid the perils of the coming apocalypse of the current government!
It will be A tremendous amount of fabulous information that will hello everyone who agrees with me the ability to survive! Everyone else who are traitorous scumbags deserve to be exterminated! Good riddance to you all!!
Long love the SoulCrusher! I love my mommy!!… And Adam Schiff’s shaft!
KimChee says
Bwahahaha!
This thread is just demonstrating even me what A joke this ‘soul crusher” is….
What A moron!
SoulCrusher says
You have been outed as a complete goof. You have many words, which amount to nothing but gibberish, but no balls. Complete fraud! Keep telling us about the “traitors” while you haven’t the slightest inclination to do a single thing about it!
Yep. You are a complete woos.
SoulCrusher says
There is no manifesto because the Constitution is the LAW, traitor. Adam Schiff should be hung. The minimum penalty for Treason is 5 years in jail as according to the codified crap you little scumbags say is law, but that isn’t correct is it? There is no Deprivation of Rights or codified statutes of treason! Not, when you are dealing with a REAL American. And why are we talking about this anyway? We were discussing this virus until the Harford County Judicial Department and the Dagger Editors decided to change the topic to my business and not the fact that they are spreading the terrorism of a souped up flu virus and trying to tell everyone they are going to die if they don’t obey the traitors who think they rule us. I tell you what, come try that shit with me again and see what happens. I may die, but I guarantee you that first fucker thru the door becomes a grease spot, traitor! By the way, Marc Eaton plays with dog balls and his daughter just passed 320lbs. How is that you guys are “Always” Eaton?
WhatMattersisBlue says
I would take your comment seriously if you had the balls to represent yourself. I’m guessing that you are a twenty-two and a half year old millennial who has difficulty expressing your views in a civilized manner. You are not SoulCrusher so no one on this thread will mind if you go back to one of your video games.
Jane says
Has anyone else come to the realization that the original SoulCrusher is just a complete Moron and idiot that has no original ideas or comments – he just attacks other people with name calling with no real substance to his arguments?
As entertaining as the back and forth is, it really just reinforces how rediculous this “crusher of souls” really is!
I truly feel sorry for this poor dull that feels it is necessary to spread his misguided ideas on a small website thinking he is making any kind of a difference. What A small, tiny little mind he must have to think he is influential to anyone. What a sad person!
Its almost laughable that he thinks anyone is really taking him seriously… That is apparent with the while group of people who are using the same name.
To use his own words, he is clearly a moron and a fuktard!
Jim says
I’m confused… who is the *real* SoulCrusher…?
SoulCrusher says
Well, we all know you either a Dagger Editor or a pork by product trying to con the public into believing the lies of your ilk.
Sophie says
Me too! He seems to have A split personality!
SoulCrusher is a Woos says
The real one is the one who uses foul language and hurls insults at people while making grandiose claims. The other ones are the ones who are putting him to the task and basically revealing what a complete ass he is: just another idiot with a lot of pent up frustration and nowhere to vent it, so he blabbed on and on, and insults people who call him on it.
Frankly, I find it hilarious. He’s been on here for a long time being a complete moron and someone has finally rendered him and his diatribes moot. Might not stop him but at least everyone knows he’s nothing but a loudmouth.
SoulCrusher says
Really? Moot? I find the fact that you and your ilk are trying so hard to extinguish the voice of freedom on this website to be completely hilarious and that lets me know that my words are anything but moot. Yes, I use foul language because it’s my right to do that. I have the freedom of speech guaranteed by the US Constitution and the absolute freedom of speech guaranteed by the Maryland Constitution. You DemoTraitors can’t seem to understand that because you think the Code is law. It’s not moron. The Code is the rules and regulations of government employees and no member of WE THE PEOPLE is beholden to that bullshit because we aren’t government employees. Get it thru your head, you don’t control nothing and you own no one. You’re just a scumbag traitor against my country and a living piece of shit.
SoulCrusher says
Well, no! No one is trying to stop you. Especially now that you’ve been outed as nothing more than a giant windbag! Read the comments…people are actually finding amusement with you! There are probably four or more people here using the name “SoulCrusher” and they are baiting you and mocking you and you keep taking the bait! Keep on ranting about Constitutional violations and all that…it’s all very charming! Please…DO NOT STOP!
Btw…I think SoulCrusher meant to say “wuss”. At least, that’s my guess, since you’re obviously a wuss.
SoulCrusher says
I won’t stop and I will continue to educate the public you scumbags have taught wrong. You can continue to act as traitors all you want, but I’m not hindered by a group of Dagger Dogs, whom are probably nothing but one or two Dagger editors. Look, I am going to stay right here. There is nothing you can do about it. Lastly, how you get “wuss” from “woos” is beyond me. If you really think all those things you typed, why don’t you drop by sometime? You know where I am at. It would be a pleasure to see you one last time….
SoulCrusher says
and by the way, WTF is a “woos”?
SoulCrusher says
@ “sophie” – well we can all see that you and Jim are the one and the same. So how does that work? Are you a chick with a D_ck?
SoulCrusher says
This is how you can tell the original SoulCrusher. Uses foul and crude language, launches insults at people that demonstrate limited imagination and stunted emotional development. Has a borderline pathetic need to be seen as an American patriot, but his only method of doing so is by acting as a Constitutional scholar and watchdog. Claims being entitled to a wide array of rights while simultaneously claiming intelligibility of anyone else. Likes to act like a tough guy (“I’m the crusher of souls! Hooray for me!!”) but is completely ineffective outside of his aforementioned name calling.
Here’s how you can tell the others. They easily make the original look like the above.
SoulCrusher says
No. You can tell the original because I tell the truth and you ALL perpetuate lies. I AM a patriot and I will use whatever language I want to use because I can. I don’t have to conform to what you want because you’re nobody to me. Yes, you can doubt anything I say, but I guarantee you the first thru the door will take his last breath. Traitor.
SoulCrusher says
The true way to tell is I’m still pooping in a trashcan because my butt was used as an amusement park in the detention center for a year.
SoulCrusher says
Yep. He was exactly right. That is how you can tell the original. Name-calling, insulting, he’s a patriot and decides who the traitors are, etc. And of course, complete wussy.
SoulCrusher says
Hey, it was 4 and a half months fuktard. Get it right. I went down the road to DOC via forced Alford Plea of fraud, war and treason. The sex really got good in DOC. I have such fond memories, I still kiss my hand before I go to bed every night. What’s wrong? Jealous? The truth is I was incarcerated for 6 and a half months total for committing no crime involving a completely fraudulent statute where maritime law was illegally enforced on the land. As for me being a wussy, well, I ain’t got no scars on my face from jail and I never had to back down to anybody. Even got threatened with a shank once, but laughed at him, raised my shirt and said “Do what you gotta do”.
Now for the second imitator, that’s right, I am a name calling, insulting SOB and I have no respect for ANY government employees. You punk bitches made me go thru hell. Do I have to remind you of the 10 days crammed into a one person isolation cell with another person while I lived on a urine soaked floor? I don’t forgive shit like that. Now, I don’t decide who a traitor is, the Constitution does and by violating it, you are warring against it. That is treason and has been declared treason in multiple Supreme Court decisions. That’s just the way it is and if you don’t like it then stop being a traitor. There is only one law and that is the Constitution. The Code is political persecution dreamed up by traitors elected into office who betrayed their oath and the people that elected them. If there is NO VICTIM there is no crime. If you don’t like that, well, it takes a Constitutional Amendment to strike out the 5th, 6th and 14th Amendments and that’s not going to happen without war. To even suggest and bring any Amendment like that to the floor would in fact be an act of treason in itself. Look, not Congress, the Legislature or any other asshole paid via the government has any authority to abrogate the Constitution and that includes 4 traitor Judges from the Harford County Circuit Court. End of story….Traitor.
SoulCrusher says
and just for the record, the standard “boat” that most people incarcerated use when they are forced to live on the floor from lack of bed space would not even fit in the isolation cell made for one person. I lived on a mat on the floor for 10 days in the middle of January and it was colder than bejesus in there because the guards left the windows open. Like I said, I don’t forgive shit like that and there is no reason that anyone should.
SoulCrusher says
Here’s what I read:
“Hey, it was 4 and a half months, blah blah yada yada hippity skippity…end of story.Traitor.”
The rest is the same old drivel. As the others have said…you’re a meek, harmless windbag.
SoulCrusher says
And you are the same scumbag who has been on here for the last 8 years trying to say that illegal police activity and treason is what we should all expect because that is what free people deserve. I don’t agree with that, will never agree with that and if what I type can prevent just 1 person from going thru the same State sponsored terrorist acts that I have had to endure then it’s worth it. If you can’t understand that then you are exactly what I say you are and that is a traitor….maybe we should call you Marc “Always a traitor” Eaton….
SoulCrusher says
Here’s what I read:
“Scumbag who’s been…8 years…badda-bip, badda-beep, badda-boop…traitor.”
There are two ways you can be silenced: one, people can get you to stop talking, and two, people can stop listening to you so they don’t hear a single word you’re saying. Like the boy who cried wolf. Spout out enough, get found out that your full of crap, no one hears you anymore. You’ve been revealed by several fellow SoulCrusher’s to be nothing but a gong in the wind. Just some inevitable, inconsequential distant sound that occurs under certain conditions, nothing more.
BTW…I haven’t been visiting the Dagger nearly that long.
SoulCrusher says
You’re such a demented liar. I’m not the boy who cried wolf because everything I claim is verified in the Court’s own records. I’ve proven it over and over. The Court wants me to accept the legalization of treason by taking a reconsideration hearing which basically allows the Court to publish a totally fictional record. I’m not doing that. Christ, I even got documentation that specifically shows I where I was housed because of a deposit into my commissary account. The guy I was housed with will even testify to your County’s treason. Lastly, there is no one that can get me to stop talking and a punk like you definitely can’t do it. Let’s see you try….and I will not obey a Court order that tries to do that either. Freedom of speech, guaranteed by both Constitutions prevents that, fuktard.

The other SoulCrusher made an excellent point…can’t stop you from posting but I think at this point, no one pays you any mind. So essentially, you’ve been silenced because no one hears you.
Maybe you do have a legitimate gripe for whatever reason, but the anger you shout at everyone who have nothing to do with your situation just makes people tune you out. I know myself, I start to read your posts and about one sentence in, I just stop reading and go to the next post.
If nothing else, your posts show that you are completely impotent and are just here to misplace your aggression. If the state wronged you, go after the state. What does coming here and calling people names do to redeem your situation with the state? Maybe you’d have some who at least sympathize with you; instead, you look at the way you act and maybe it’s not surprising you ended up in the can.
Seems like the only soul around here that was crushed is yours. You may have only been in jail for a little while but your mind and soul is still imprisoned; and you shout at everyone as if they are the prison guards who keep you locked in.
I think you either need to sue the state (or whoever actually wronged you, if you have a case) or get help in recovering from an obviously traumatic experience.

SoulCrusher April 17 @ 1:16p you have restored my faith in humanity. Not only have I been confused about identifying one SoulCrusher from the others, I was beginning to think that you all had a heart the size of a pea. You are insightful and kind. I agree with your advice. That being said, I find value in much of what he says. Most of us don’t show our crazy, but this mob mentality just isn’t fair.
SoulCrusher says
If no one hears the REAL Crusher of Heads, Holes and Souls then why do you keep responding? Maybe it’s because you can’t hear what is typed. Why is it that you have tried to assume my moniker? Why is it that you only read one sentence from my “post”, yet seem to remember every word I typed? Lastly, to everyone who has something to say, good or bad, just remember I love being hated. It makes me happy to be hated and I just want to remind you scumbags that before September 30th, 2009, I didn’t hate one soul on this earth. Now, I AM hatred and I love this shit. However, when we were talking about this virus, I know that I am right about it amounting to nothing and the proof is that the CDC itself is no longer contributing ANY pneumonia deaths to the flu this season. The CDC has basically told everyone that they are actively lying about the statistics and are padding the deaths onto the Corona Virus. If you fuktards don’t have an issue with that then you are completely out of your God forsaken minds. That’s the bottom line because the SoulCrusher says so….

Yawn!

Blowhard.

Well, they hear him…again, you can hear the gong in the wind…but no one takes him seriously. No one really thinks he is going to crush anyone’s soul. He’s just a goof.

You can probably read and figure out why no one shows him kindness. Not having recovered from whatever trauma he experienced and being in dire need of help does not give him a license to berate others. He chooses to come here and behave as he does. And yes, it is pathetic and maybe worthy of pity that he needs to use the cover of a tiny anonymous local news site in order to feel empowered, and worse, thinks that he can actually “crush souls” through this Avenue. But you can hardly blame people for letting him know how they view him because of his behavior.
Yes, I’d like to see him get the help he needs and I wish him no harm (I doubt anyone here wishes that for him) but I can’t really blame people for diluting his presence and exposing him as a harmless fraud.
WhatMattersisBlue says
SC thanks for the clarification. It is easy to overthink things during this Stay in Place Covid 19 event. I’m wondering why I am awake at 0500?!? I’ll be busy working that out until daylight.
SoulCrusher says
Yawn….I’m just so glad you guys are so compassionate. Give me a break. If I had stayed in Harford County I would’ve been murdered by your Sheriff’s Department, in my own home while committing no crime. No one should even travel thru Harford County because of your County’s terrorist activities committed under color of law. No one should ever move to Harford County because apparently the police in Harford County have jurisdiction of everyone’s homes and can just get one of your traitor Judges to sign an illegal Administrative Warrant of fraud, war and treason. You have no power or authority over me and the next time the Maryland Mafia tries to interject authority over me we will see how that works out…..You assholes trying to play good cop and bad cop is just totally ridiculous. After everything you punk bitches have put me thru, you think I’m going to cooperate with you and your complete TREASON? I don’t think so….
WhatMattersisBlue says
SoulCrusher I am not a guy and I have never been a cop. What I know about the Harford County Sheriff’s Department, I’ve learned from comments on many topics shared in this format. I apologize for making any personal comments about your posts. It is your right to express yourself; I am listening.
SoulCrusher says
You don’t have to be a cop to play good cop bad cop. Now, I am going to apologize to you because you didn’t really do anything wrong and the other idiots are baiting me into talking about the past. I stand by everything I say about the Harford County Sheriff’s Department of 2009 and I think Gahler is a better Sheriff than the traitor Jesse Bane. However, the Task Force still has a terrorist run going on in Hateford County and I tell everyone to just avoid Harford County. I hi-jacked the Dagger years ago because this was the forum of those scumbag traitors and they were on here patting themselves on the back all the time basking in the treason they were committing. On another note, I was on here commenting on a virus that I think is a crock of shit and the scumbags that traverse these pages didn’t like someone telling an alternative opinion, that I believe is the truth. I don’t trust the government and I will not obey ANY order from any governmental traitor, unless it is during a lawful traffic stop. I have no intention of helping anyone personally and I get on here to educate the public against the treasonous government that has no business existing in this Country. It isn’t a Republican or Democrat thing either, even though I now realize the Democrats are traitors and should be abolished. Now, I’m not going to apologize to anyone else for anything I type because that’s just the way it is. I won’t apologize to you anymore either. I am who I am and that’s because of what YOUR County did to me years ago. I never forget and I refuse to forgive. If you ever open your door to that terrorist organization you will see what I’m talking about. In 2009, the Harford County Sheriff’s Department was nothing more than a terrorist organization and I will always warn people to not even drive thru Harford County. In my opinion, I-95 should be re-routed around Harford County because of citizen safety concerns and because no one should be expose to terrorists operating under color of law. No one will ever change my opinion of those scumbag traitors and that is final.
SoulCrusher says
Yawn…
WhatMattersisBlue says
SoulCrusher I share your concerns about Covid-19. I have commented many times about this coronavirus, political agenda, media scare tactics, and China’s involvement. The unintended collateral damage to healthcare won’t be a result of Covid-19. If I may ask, do you include the Bel Air Police Department and the Maryland State Police in your safety warning to citizens of Harford County?
SoulCrusher says
I have no real issue with the Bel Air Police, but the Maryland State Police is nothing but a Gestapo terrorist organization as well. The State Police has been organizing these terrorist cells for many years and utilizing fraud, war and treason against the general public. There is no honor or integrity amongst the ranks of the State Police and they have broken the covenants in full across the entire State. The whole lot of them should be held to account for the Article 3 Section 3 violations they have committed. WE THE PEOPLE are not governed by statutory law without a common law victimization present in the accusations. WE THE PEOPLE are ONLY required to follow the common law and that is just the way it is….
SoulCrusher says
You. Are. An. Idiot!
SoulCrusher says
Yawn.
SoulCrusher says
Both of you are nothing but imitators…5:55pm imitator…..6:54pm imitator….Do you really wish you were just like me that bad?
SoulCrusher says
We’re not imitating you
If we were imitating you we would be spewing nonsense about how the government wronged you and how everyone is a traitor. No, what we’re doing is mocking you. I think there are about ten now.
SoulCrusher says
I don’t think there is 10 of you. It’s more like one of you and your 9 multiple personalities. You should seek some help for your mental condition. Traitor.
SoulCrusher says
But what about me? I’m not him or you, and he’s not me or you. So that’s already three, and there are several others that aren’t me and aren’t you or him.
The point is, you’ve said many times that the coronavirus is more dangerous/serious than the flu, and it seems like there is a lot of facts to back that up. I agree with you on that as well. Thanks for your input.
SoulCrusher says
SoulCrusher says
The Corona Virus is no more dangerous than the flu. The CDC itself said that we could’ve had up to 78,000 deaths from the flu as a high estimate this season. They are NO LONGER counting pneumonia deaths caused by the flu and are contributing ALL pneumonia deaths to the Corona Virus, even though the CDC’s own maps show the influenza is still “HIGH” and “WIDESPREAD” in Maryland. If you can’t see that this is padding the stats then you have once again been brainwashed to believe what they program you to believe in the media. There is a reason the media calls their broadcasts “programs”. It is to “program” your brain to believe the lies the media and the government are pushing on the people. It is amazing how many people will allow this to happen and be herded like “sheep” to the shepherds. The only problem is these “shepherds” don’t want you to be safe, they want you to comply with orders. WE THE PEOPLE don’t comply to orders. We are NOT government employees. Government employees work for US. We don’t work for them. ONLY government employees are beholden to rules and regulations, not the people. Someone please show me where the people gave the government permission to enforce rules and regulations on the public. It just doesn’t exist and the enforcement of rules and regulations on the public are acts of fraud, war and treason.
SoulCrusher says
Yada yada. But as you have demonstrated, you will do absolutely nothing about it so that’s that. Thanks for keeping us posted.
If you have a solution to this travesty, and actually grow a pair and are ready to act on it let us know.
SoulCrusher says
I don’t control what the media says. I can contradict what the media says and that’s what I’m doing.
WhatMattersisBlue says
SoulCrusher…. Damn Boy!!….Your outrageous hatred for Police is a deal breaker for me!… No reply necessary.
SoulCrusher says
That’s because what matters isn’t blue. The only thing that matters is red, white and blue. Those boys break the law to enforce the code. We ain’t government employees and the MSP is. They have betrayed their oaths. They are in breach of the Constitutional contract. They have committed both intrinsic and extrinsic fraud. They have levied war on the people whom have ordained them and pay their fucking salaries. They have operated a racketeering ring, statewide, and are illegally enforcing the code without a common law violation on the general public. They have done all of this where they have no jurisdiction. They work for us. We don’t work for them. They need to get the heads out of their asses and start obeying the law. They break the law under color of law and that is treason. That’s just the way it is…
