Yea until I see a legit link I don't believe it. Things were already extended here until 4/30, so it seems weird to go back on that and open 4/27.

Tennessee is reportedly leading the way and will open for business on April 27. Ohio will follow on May 1.


Deaths per capita as of today (per 100K people)

NY - 59
NJ - 36
LA - 24
MS - 4
OH - 3
TN - 2
TX - 1

So it's easy to see why TN, OH, etc will open up earlier than NY and LA...

No one is saying that it is not serious and tragic. Its just that hiding in your home indefinitely is not going to accomplish what you think it is. If we want to have a country going forward we need to carry on. It is time to grow up.

I respect the hell out of the medical profession. But face it. If it were up to them we'd shutter the country and never reopen. They wouldn't do anything that might risk even one life.

Who is hiding in their home? I went and picked up lunch today. Took the dog for a walk this afternoon. Going to pick up some beer tonight.

POTUS says a lot of shite that doesn't come true. Remember when he said there would be testing facilities all over the country at CVS, Walgreen's, and Walmarts?

politicians on both sides of the aisle say a lot of shite that never happens. welcome to modern day politics.

When Uncle Sam stops mailing those checks to him, I would guess.

Wow I was expecting Ohio to be one of the last with the way they fabricated their doom and gloom numbers. Those protests must’ve worked because they were raising hell.

I have no doubt we could return to 100% normal life tomorrow if we wanted to. But unfortunately I don't make those decisions.


You realize “normal” is gone, right? The only familiar thing you’ll get back is taking that tiger d again and again.

I could say the same thing about body bags for an disease, but here are some non pretend numbers for your arse

Mortality rate is less than 1%, and in the state of LA about 0.5% have been tested and have the virus. So we should shut down and bankrupt people in the state for a thousand people?

Here some other facts for you, less than 5% of deaths nationwide were healthy non obese individuals with no pre existing health issues.

Now do the math on your chances of dying from this....guess what, it's miniscule.

If you want to quarantine, be my guest. Those at risk should. But this is going to be around for atleast a year, wtf you gonna do, quarantine everyone for a year or more?

'Bruh, we shut down until the end of April. I don't know what "open for business" would mean even IF we got there.
