Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

[Ernest T. Vol]

What an atrocity. Loss of scholys seems most appropriate IMO.

...and just like that, the virus wuz over.

Testing everyone.... nobody with symptoms.... scary stuff

Running games at a % of capacity while maintaining some distance seems appropriate to me.

Forget that..... let us sign a waiver..... I can’t wait to be back in neyland

Testing everyone.... nobody with symptoms.... scary stuff

They have moved on from fear mongering to guilt mongering. It's not that I will get sick, because in my age group and health group there is virtually no risk. It's that I will somehow infect some hypothetical grandmother through a series of bufferfly effect unfortunate events.

Virginia City That Voted Obama Twice Just Threw Democrats Out Of Office

Three Democratic members of the Staunton, Virginia, city council were ousted by Republicans on Tuesday despite receiving more votes than they did four years ago.

Republican candidates Mark Robertson, Amy Darby, and Steve Claffey all joined incumbent Andrea Oakes in a four-seat GOP sweep, WHSV reported. The three incoming council members replaced Democratic incumbents Erik Curren, Ophie Kier, and James Harrington all almost doubled their vote totals from 2016, yet still lost.

Local outlet Augusta Free Press reporter Chris Graham called the results “stunning almost beyond words.”

“Democrats got their voters out better than they have in a May cycle in years,” Graham wrote. “Republicans got turnout more akin to, not quite a presidential year, but approaching gubernatorial.”

Graham cited gun control legislation in the state as well as COVID-19 lockdowns as key turnout drivers for Republicans in the city.

What’s scary? More evidence this thing doesn’t have the teeth originally assumed. Did any of them miss work? Would any of then have sought help have we not been in a “pandemic?”

The fact that thousands of people, covid and non covid related, have died alone in the past couple of months is quite the tragedy. The fact that there wasnt even a choice is sickening.

Yep and the elderly isn’t getting sick from it anymore either unless they are already very sick

It is insanity. And the stupidity carries on. When I hear of these assinine suggestions by MLB it concerns me that the stupid have really overtaken the world.

Of all the sh!t sandwiches the left has shoved down our throats the past 10 year I already know I'm going to hate the
"new normal" the most.

It is disturbing. As much as I miss sports I'm not sure I can watch a baseball game where you're not allowed to throw it around the infield after a strike out.

If you deem that too dangerous you dont need to play the game. We are still in some absurd game where adults attempt to out stupid one another.

COVID-19 precautions are a new virtue signal. It may sound crazy to some but I see it more and more where I live.

The public shaming tactics are also becoming much more common.

I think dimocrats are having their Socialist dreams back firing on them with the protests Nation wide. The Republican winning in California and now this.

Hopefully they immediately join their County and adopt 2nd Ammendment sanctuary status.

No post game handshakes either. The virus. It’s everywhere!

You are wrong. That was not just a politically partisan interpretation. That is because Sen. Lamar Alexander from Tennessee is a Republican. Sen. Lamar Alexander posted a statement on Twitter which acknowledged that the Democratic Party House Managers had proven their case that President Donald Trump withheld aid to the Ukraine, at least in part, to encourage President Zelensky to open an investigation of Joe Biden. Sen. Alexander also referred to this action by President Donald Trump as being "inappropriate". Sen. Alexander issued this statement as an explanation for why he believed that calling new witnesses during the Senate trial was unnecessary.

As I said, we're never going to agree. If only my clairvoyant skills were this good when playing the ponies...

That’s why I can’t live around the area where you live , I know me with people like that , I’d make an ass of myself and probably go viral on YouTube . Title : old southern white guy makes innocent woman cry just for reminding him to wear his mask .

Great job by the Governor here, I want to trade Bill Lee for him

That is golden. I'm becoming a fan

As for Lee, you don't understand how good you've got it. Look to the north. You don't even have to go to Mich. just look past Jellico Mountain. You could do a lot worse. I think Lee is pretty darn good

Burn it!

They published a list of those infected, when a representative was asked if they only posted the first names due to HIPPA regulations they laughed..... No this is Alabama, there is only one last name.

Have you ever noticed several posters have trouble understanding your points. At sometime you have to ask yourself is it you problem.

One time I thought it might be me that was the problem. I told the guy what I was trying to say 11 different ways and 3 days later he was still trying to burn strawmen. Now when I respond to him, I put the main idea in bold at the bottom of the post.

Main Idea: Yes, I consider it when the person I’m talking to doesn’t have a track record of being willfully obtuse.

You completely missed the before the "Rona" part. Funny how that works.

My issue with Lee is after saying he would not lock the state down he buckled to the pressure and locked us down for a month. There were counties with zero cases or 1 or 2 cases, why did those counties need to be locked down? I just don’t think he’s a very good leader
