Which State Will Have the First Civil Disobedience?

Oh
The article linked below contains a list of states that have closed bars and restaurants. In my state, there is an entire region unaffected by Coronavirus--zero reported cases. Who's going to be the first restaurant/bar owner in that portion of the state--or ANY state--to say screw it and open their doors to a flood of customers?

I say one week, ten days at the outside. When one does, other owners in other states will do the same, especially in areas with no Coronavirus. And once that starts, it will be America saying, screw you, Daddy Government. We are Open for Business.

Which states have closed restaurants and bars due to coronavirus?
Why would anyone do that and risk spreading the virus to their employees and customers?
Because they’re worried that Trump’s failure to address the outbreak jeopardizes his reelection chances.

Pretending that ‘everything’s normal’ and that the response to the crisis is an ‘overreaction’ will mitigate Trump’s failure and benefit him politically.

Indeed, there could be a business owner sympathetic to Trump who will ignore the facts and the truth concerning the outbreak and disregard health and safety protocols out of misguided loyalty to Trump.

The thread premise is evidence of that possibility.
Oh! So the question was "which tRumpling will act out first".

I thought we were talking about real people.

My bad.

So anybody that supports Trump is a non-person? Am I reading that correctly from your dumbass self?
You've been working on that comprehension on the sly, haven't you?

What if Covid-19, is a method to eliminate anti-American cocksuckers like you? Hmm?

You're quarantined, you have the virus..you're screwed. Speedy cremation to destroy the virus.

Got a match?

Only to give you a hotfoot. ;)

And when you get it you will recover in a couple days.

For that you'd bring down the world!

If I get it, I will more likely end up dead. If my grandson gets it, he will likely end up dead. Is that what you want?

I understand that this is scary but it's not an argument. It's an emotional appeal and when it comes to destroying the economy for everyone, I'm getting really tired of it, to be honest.

My son almost died from his peanut allergy when he was five. And yet I do not approach people eating peanuts and say "If you eat those my son could die. Is that what you want?"

That is an ESPECIALLY unfair question when now, this response to the pandemic is putting people's livelihoods at risk. We must step away from the shaming, the panic, the hyperbole and the fear and look at what is just and fair.
 
Its only a matter of time that people will begin to rebel. For now, its a novel experience and everyone wants to do their part. In April, things will change, I believe. People will get tired of sitting at home going stir crazy...especially if there are no new cases in their town or city.

Our gov was one of the first to close bars/restaurants and schools, but she is holding firm on not issuing a "stay at home" order, must to the dismay of panicking libs. I'm very glad. There's no need. We have a much less than 1% death rate so far, and there are entire big swaths of our state entirely unaffected. A stay at home order would do much more damage than good.

She's a Dem so where she got this common sense is anyone's guess...heh

Translation- Trump's incompetence has destroyed the economy, and Sour Sue doesn't want any responsiblity for it.

Trying to compare the two is simply ridiculous. My livelihood is at risk because I cannot work and my grandson cannot go to school. Your son can avoid peanuts. We cannot avoid breathing.

That is assuming no new cases. Call me when that happens

It is not, actually, a ridiculous comparison. We have crashed the ENTIRE ECONOMY over this, for the health of the elderly and immuno-compromised. What we should have considered is kept the elderly and immuno-compromised at home while allowing the rest of us to go on, business as usual.

And by the way, it is not always possible for my son to avoid peanuts. There is always a risk of hidden exposure. They have not been banned--society has not demanded it, and I do not expect it. It's a risk we must live with.
 
If we can’t start a revolution due to the closing of bars, a revolution in this country is never going to happen.
 
I totally understand restricting large gatherings of people, but I think we are going too far.

This is having big economic repercussions. The costs are huge.

Eventually, someone would bring home Covid-19 without even knowing it. Then those old people would be screwed.

What crashed the economy was Trump's mismanagement of this crisis. The bigger problem is that all the QE and low interest rates he kept in place to inflate the stock market means we have no tools to fight a real recession.

You can tell this is a real crisis when Wall Street is inconvenienced...

This isn’t an inconvenience. The commercial paper market was seizing up. Why should you care? Imagine a world where Visa and MasterCard can’t borrow in the commercial paper market. That means they can’t finance their short-term liabilities, ie you going to the store to buy stuff with your credit card. Now imagine a world where people can suddenly no longer use their credit card. That’s a real thing. You think we’ve got panic now? Those football field long line-ups at Costco would turn into riots.

The Fed stepped in to backstop the commercial paper market last week.

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change our world
You tell me there's an evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the wor-rld


But when we talk about isurrec-tion
Don't you know that there’s some $$$'s in bed
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

You say we need a covid solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for my contribution
Well, you know
The Fed is printing what they caa---annn


But when the doctrine hails from people who’s minds hate
All I can tell is brother you're the bait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
Ah

ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...



You say you gotta constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You say you've no soluuuution
Well, you know
You better find the time instead


But if you go carrying on like a stuck cow
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
all right, all right, all right

So you people on Wall Street managed to fuck it up - again - and are looking for more bailouts?

Color me shocked.

Socialism for the rich, ruthless capitalism for the rest of us. But don't vote for Bernie!

If there are no new cases in my town perhaps I can go to another town and bring home some Covid. A souvenir that`s cheaper than a box of salt water taffy.
