Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

Might not be a good idea to have an agitated group of protesters wandering the capitol halls with firearms. Just my humble opinion though.

Maybe those in the halls shouldnt agitate the group and actually represent the people of the state instead of the largest voting bloc.

This Is How Horribly They’re Treating the Dead in Brooklyn

More liberal big city logistics at work

You don't seem to have any grasp on the science behind this disease

Mi can’t speak for anyone but myself . The more I hear and see if this “ science “ and these “ scientists experts “ relying on these “ expert scientific studies / models “ the less I care about all of these scientists and their “options”.

Do you realize that you keep pointing out how badly ran an extremely liberal city is ? It’s odd the things that this “ pandemic “ and the Trump administration is bringing out by letting the governors and mayors have full control of their states instead of the attention being focused solely on the feds isn’t it ?

And if the the DNC replaces Biden with Cuomo EL will be singing his praises.

You wouldn't be concerned if a bunch of pissed off dudes with guns were shouting at you?

No more concerned tha if it was a bunch of dudes shooting at me.

Some of yall need to live in the country for a bit where rolling up on a stranger with a gun isnt a bad thing.

This is a little eye-rolling.

CA had almost 300 cases when Newsome shut down restaurants, etc. on 3/15.

In TX, I started working from home on the 15th - as did pretty much most of the jobs that could in Houston (roads were obviously less busy) and the large cities took the lead in shutting down restaurants, etc. Houston shut things down on 3/20. On 3/20, Texas had almost 200 cases. So, relative to the virus's progress in TX, Houston (which was one of the early cities to be impacted in TX) shut down faster than Newsome shut down CA.

Point being, Texans were not running around, not shut down, hanging out at beaches (has anyone been to a TX beach? You don't hang out there unless it's down south). So it seems like a bad comparison to try to make.

These “grassroots” protesters where from other states, not just residents of the state where the protest happen. On top of that, the protesters are a very vocal minority, somewhere around 60% of Americans support the shutdown.

Only 12% of Americans say the measures where they live go too far. About twice as many people, 26%, believe the limits don’t go far enough. The majority of Americans — 61% — feel the steps taken by government officials to prevent infections of COVID-19 in their area are about right.

He is wrong when believing the "virus will be behind us."

But he is right to go ahead and practice regardless.

 

[LouderVol]

To intimidate. It is a threat.

As is any protest.

Protesting is what happens when the government refuses to listen to it's people.

If they want us to toe the line they also have to toe the line. The government has inarguably taken things up a notch, why cant the people?

No you racist I’m Wuhanian.

So you are saying it is ok to intimidate legislators with rifles and handguns? Sounds like a fascist takeover or some banana republic.

This virus will never go away, it will always be a political battle ground

It was in 1775

A peaceful protest, which is the legal kind, is not a threat. An armed protest could easily turned into an insurrection.

Yeah, back then it was legal to marry your cousin, too. We're not in the 18th century any more.

LOL nice completely unrelated comparison.

A little revolution every now and then is a good thing.

You're right, only the authorities should have weapons. Easier to control that way

Citizens are threatened every day through actions of legislators. Their enforcers have rifles and handguns

Also legal to buy and sell another person.

 

[Purple Tiger]

YES!!!
