If you’re looking at one city statistics and think the whole country should be locked down then.....”caution” is having politicians strip your rights from you? Got it. A cop told a pastor in Missouri that was holding church service from inside his church to his perish while were seated in their own vehicles in the parking lot that each person there would be cited $500. When the pastor protested the cop told him, “your rights have been suspended”. WHAT THE ACTUAL F*Ck?! And you’re ok with that? Based on statistics that are all screwed up and have been proven again and again to be wrong and overly dramatic? Ok. You’re entitled to your opinion and I respect that.

exactly. Hiding from it isn’t going to resolve it. Doctors are already saying there’s a huge likelihood of another large resurgence in the fall.

Some of this stuff you can't make up.
in 2019 over 30k people died from the flu, the only difference this year is you have the media and other people making a big deal of it and stopping the economy.. they didnt shut down the economy in 2009 for the h1n1 and they shouldnt have for this..
The CDC estimates that as many as 56,000 people die from the flu or flu-like illness each year. SOURCES: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases:

Ok. Sorry to derail the thread again. If Indy or anyone else wants to respond to my posts that’s fine. I won’t continue to derail the post.

I do hope everyone is healthy and well and look forward to seeing any and all of you on the water later this year. Hopefully in LOTO in June and KW in November. I can’t wait to boat!!!!

I'm good, we'll agree to disagree on most points, however the church thing is stupid, so are some of the other outlier incidents. I'd take you for a ride and some beers on my boat anytime...oh wait, I don't have a boat right now, it's in the form of a massive house remodel...but when I do!

Do agree with density being an issue but that just means that if the rural get infected it'll just be less people...oh well?

So NYC has 18 million people, 3.7% is 660,000 and that's ok? So lets let 'em run around because our "rights" are being trampled? When do we get concerned?
FL had an outbreak in a nursing home, boosting the death count early on. Dade/Broward and Palm Beach counties have more cases combined than just about the rest of the state combined. So again if you live in a section of the country/state with low infection rates then get out of the bunker and live a little.

Cancer and guns have death rates that Americans deal with annually..............Corona will have it also.

So why lose our whole economy in the process?

vise versa! Thanks for the offer and it goes the other way!
