    Wear a mask or don't, work or don't, quarantine/social distance or don't........DAT RONA AINT GOINS AWAY.

    We can continue to kill our economy and feel a greater pain from all of this or just go back to normal and feel the pain quicker and with less cumulative and severe pain overall.

    Herd immunity is the only way to stop this shit. the genie is out of the bottle , pandora is out of the box, no going back. Unless everyone has the ability to grow their own food, make their pwn TP and make their own booze- like every single person in the entire world that is- for a full year to get rid of this shit, then we just have to deal with the hand we are dealt.

    The quicker we feel the pain, the quicker we will be done with it.

    The longer we slow things, the more chance we have for mutations to occur and this thing just keeps burning away.

    People gonna die no matter what, and that sucks donkey balls. But what we are doing is not going to stop that, it's just going to insure that more people are at risk for dying from suicide, malnutrition, etc from a poor economy. It will insure that more people get on and stay on the .gov dole and it will insure more people are willing to give up their rights for some perceived safety.

    Our best bet would be to totally shut off China, 100% shut them down from trade or business dealings with US, and put pressure eon our allies to do the same or lose our Military support and funding. Then let this shit burn through and get us herd immunity ASAP.

    There will not be a vaccine. There will not be a cure. We gotta deal with this shit by surviving it the old fashioned way. Period. Tough nuts. Move on.

    You wanna see shit get really bad? Keep the economy going south and take away peoples livelihoods, give them nothing to lose in a world of unknown strange shit with nowhere to work and nowhere to go to release stress on have a good time- shit will get real, and how.

    Can you imagine EBT turning off with 30% + of the population relying on it and no jobs or resources to turn to? That's a chilling thought, yo.

    We interrupt this programme to bring you an important news bulletin: the suspect in the Happy Times All-Girl Glee Club slaying has fled the scene and has managed to elude the police. He is armed and dangerous, and has been spotted in the West Side area, armed with a meat cleaver in one hand and his genitals in the other...

    Wear clothes in public?
    Do you guys wear seatbelts?
    Do you guys smoke where its prohibited?
    Drink and drive because it is your right?

    How many here CCW but won't wear a mask in public? That corn hole kills more people than guns so fat this year.

    People are losing their jobs and life savings and some people won't take the smallest step to address the issue. Frankly, ANTIFA couldn't come up with a better plan to hurt Trump than to run around with out masks and make sure that the most amount of people get infected.

    There are no home-runs in fighting this thing. There are small plays that might not even help us win, but take some of the pain and dying out of it.

    The illogic of mask wearing to mag bans and bus seating? What the heck?

    Fine, go ahead and spew all over the place. The best case is that you find out you had an asymptomatic case and wonder how many people you affected.

    For the thread title - watch this video, the drawn guns, the MRAP and the tactics, and tell me that isn't a police state:

    https://twitter.com/JuYeonKimTV/stat...73262881255425

    It's so over-the-top it would provoke incredulous laughter if it were in a serious fictional movie. It's right out of Idiocracy though.

    Don't assume my views, I'm not opposed to intelligent and lawfully-enacted requirements to limit infection, but the last month has brought out tons of clowns.

    Show me the study that provides evidence in favor of cloth masks as an effective strategy for preventing the transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

    People are losing their jobs and saving due to governmental policies. Please look at the actual data in regards to case number and fatality.

    There’s nothing to fight. It’s a coronavirus; a novel coronavirus.

    If you’re worried, stay home.

    Did you actually read that?

    It was based on 20 coughs, measured at 7 inches- and it halved the viral load, and didn't address velocity and carry at actual distances. It also only looked at that simple and flawed transmission model, and didn't even address the other side of the equation of protecting people. And it points out other issues to.

    Austria saw a 90% decline in infections two weeks after implementing mandatory masks.

    I’m with FMCDH. It’s a minor inconvenience at most and I hardly see how this is a further threat to our freedoms. It certainly is not even close to a parallel of 30 round magazine bans or any sort of gun control and it is so far from racial discrimination I’m not even sure how one makes that massive jump.

    No it isn't, but to call out SWAT teams over it? To beat people in the street over it? To release violent felons from jail so they can make room for quarantine breakers?

    What a ridiculous comparison. So 300+ Million Americans are all typhoid Mary's? Right now 1.4% of all those tested at the COVID test site I work at come back positive. That isn't 1.4% of the population that is 1.4% of the highest risk patients or those showing symptoms that are swabbed. You do realize the mask won't protect you. Stop feeding the hysteria. If we follow your logic then every married man that doesn't use a condom every time he has sex with his wife is an irresponsible AIDS/HIV spreading weapon of mass destruction.
