As if it wasn’t high enough ready , there is no telling what a hospital stay/ ER visit will cost when this is over

Stay at home, your choice, and would appreciate the same latitude with my choice - to live not in fear.

The news said that the number of people going through TSA was down over 95% compared to last year.

Think about where all that stimulus money went over the last two weeks. It went to places like Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, and Amazon instead of small businesses because of the lockdown.

The fact that Lowe’s and grocery store employees haven’t been dropping like flies from the virus should be a real big indicator that things should open back up.

Unless you are wearing an N95 you are pissing in the wind. Those cloth masks just make you look stupid.

When the history of this is written this will go down as the most foolish decision by government in modern times.

But Honor Code and the other Libs in this town say otherwise.

I don’t see how small businesses being closed makes any sense when all these jammed big box stores are open.

Pure incompetence.

What is stopping you from going to a local hardware store or grocer? They're all still open and have been the whole time.

Everyone gets that. I always shop the local places. But there is a lot more retail out there other than grocery stores.

Ok? Nothing classified as non-essential has national chains open while locals are shut down.

Why is a post with nothing but facts getting blasted? covid has made some of y'all crazy

Our city mgr told us that all the “essential” businesses they left open have had record months while our sales are down 70%.

No doubt. I was in Lowe’s yesterday.... you could barely find a parking spot.

I actually went twice. I’m over the Rona.

I have not set foot in a WalMart, Lowe’s, Home Depot or otherwise. I’m ordering food to go or delivered from locally owned (not chain) restaurants and shopping at locally owned (AG) stores. Like I do during all other times. The point flew over your head-how is packing Lowe’s or WalMarks with citizens safe, but going to get a haircut or have a drink at a bar unsafe and banned by DumBel “to protect us”?

Went to both this weekend. The directional stickers on the floor at walmart are a complete waste of time/money. NO ONE is following them. I don't think most of them even realized they were there.
