¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just wonder if the murderers think afterwards "wtf was I thinking?" or "I'm totally like that guy in Falling Down, the good guy standing up for what's right!".

actually i think that was a parody/sarcasm :)
I hope so, didn't check out who the poster was. Sadly, I have recently seen protesters with signs denouncing Fauci and Bill Gates. I mean Bill Gates? WTF?
I don't watch Fox media/ alt right news, etc., which I can only imagine is where such folly comes from.

I’m pretty sure that Trump and his cronies will be claiming that this was a fake pandemic soon. They’re already planning to challenge the official death numbers, and pretty soon you’ll see red states refusing to update/release numbers on a regular basis post “reopening”.

Case in point—Arizona governor Doug Ducey. First, he acknowledges the case load is growing and says stay at home will be extended 2 weeks. Then he reverses himself, switches to a different model when Trump decides to visit, and says salons, retail and restaurants will be open by next week now that cases are “declining”. Oh, and those Arizona universities modeling a growing caseload? He told the public health department to cease all collaboration with them. Of course, when media got wind and people complained he shifted again.

I’m not sure of the mental gymnastics required for Trump to first claim Coronavirus was a Democrat hoax, then claim he called it a pandemic before anyone else, and then claim it was fake again...but I’m sure he can pull it off with the people who matter to him.

Another one lampooning the only way you could hope to get all these morons, to do the right thing.

Ech! Just saw a Trump political ad making all kinds of claims about successfully doing all kinds of things about the pandemic. It was sickening. Damn. No link yet.

Just remember, millions upon millions of people are watching that ad and nodding along in agreement.

My wife entered into a Facebook 'discussion' with a couple of people. Discussion begins with one of the people saying 'let's put aside the elderly and those with preexisting conditions'. Seriously, let's put off those who are getting sick and dying. Proceeded on to things like masks causing infection (because the germs can't escape your lungs), get rid of sugar in your diet and you won't get sick. Yada, yada, yada. I think my wife just gave up for now. I'm going to have some green tea...I'm sure that will protect me from COVID19. Maybe cinnamon....

I heard snorting ground up Bible pages and american flags is a sure fire cure!
