I have worn a mask lawfully from the start - and have been behind school openings within reason from the outset.

Within reason?  Why the hesitation if people are "Far far FAR more likely to get the virus outside of school" (paraphrasing you, but you know its accurate.)



Well, you know - with the 85 babies testing positive.......

Yesterday China allowed movie theaters to reopen.  Initially they'll be restricted to 35% capacity.  With people not living together intended to be spaced apart.

A world apart from where the US is.

In one tiny Texas county, yes. 

And you didn't answer the question.  If school is a safer environment than anywhere outside of school, why the need for caution on school opening?  Wouldn't it be better for the kids to be there?

Would even say it would be far, far, FAR better.

As I understand it one of them died.

What is your point?

Their own worst enemy

Its worth noting re: our previous discussions and arguments here about how biased the MSM is that not one of the numerous headlines that kiidcarter8 has called out here was actually misleading or untrue.

Can't see Biden standing up to China in the South China Sea.

That’s because you’re an idiot.


Biden is no Jed Bartlett

True, because Biden is REAL.

however, if you wish to compare the real candidates with fictional ones, Trump is Frank Underwood without the faux Southern accent.


Pretty sure Trump hasn't murdered anyone.  Even the woeful Niece Mary didn't go that far.

How many have died not wearing masks because  there is not a federal mandate? Chances are good many will die because of school openings.

Their own worst enemy

They got tired of killing off their customer base and saw that it didn’t help their bottom line anyway and so they took a small step to join the civilized world and try to survive.

More businesses will follow suit. Many more have been there already.

Trump is waffling because he is a bloated infant with no discipline or spine or capacity to act responsibly.

That last is the legal definition of, “hand over the keys grandpa. We’ll be sending someone around to see your diaper is changed.”
