As I said.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I never realized how selfish people really are until this pandemic.
They are weak when it comes to having the fortitude to do the right thing or give in to selfish desires
and the urge for instant gratification.
This is temporary and not forever.
A year, maybe two.
Do the right reasonable thing and listen to the experts.
Come on, man. I respect your point, but please at least agree that the term "experts" is laughable.
The experts? Theses are the same "experts" who for some genius reason, stated bars can not serve alcohol after a certain time, as if the virus understands the difference between 10 an 11 pm and whether a patron is having a glass of wine or not?
The same experts who make restaurants and businesses operate at 30 % capacity, but yet 400 people cram into a parking lot at a farmers market, because it is an "outdoor" venue?
The same experts who allowed the local pool hall to only open "every other table" even though, as JAM says, the racks, house cues, balls, bar, bathroom door knobs, etc. haven't been sterilized all night?
JAM also stated that the US is not handling the pandemic as well as other countries...maybe not, but the Netherlands is going into a complete shutdown for the next 5 weeks. Is that the answer?
Me, my wife, and both kids have had it and recovered from it, and we are thankful for that. For us, it was no worse than a very mild case of flu....my 11 year old never had symptoms. But we haven't seen or hugged grandparents or great grandparents since March. That is a family choice we made since they are elderly and high risk.
I think, from being in a classroom around teenagers all day, that wearing a mask gives folks a false sense of security.
