Understand the Science

Let me preface this post with the fact that I lean to the left. I wanted to say that in case anyone had any doubts!

Okay I have had enough. These idiots who think that protesting the stay at home orders by gathering in public spaces and not respecting ”social distancing” need to leave this earth. I don’t care how they leave or where they go just get the hell out of our lives. Carrying Trump signs and Confederate flags these are the worst of our society. Now even Stephen Moore has chimed in saying this equates to Rosa Parks sitting in the white only section of the bus. This is the man that needs to lead the exodus.

And now our “president” tweets “Liberate”. That is inciting civil disobedience. Does he understand that can be an impeachable offense? Does he really want “his” country to experience a longer pandemic? Or does he really understand the science?

I am not fond of the stay at home order, nobody is. But it here for a reason. I know the economy is going to suffer and people are going to suffer because of the economy. The alternative is that more people die. The protesters either don’t care or aren’t intelligent enough to understand the science behind these orders. We are all going to have to live without for awhile. Without work, without friends, without loved ones. It’s what must be done. Our federal government must help us out. It is the responsibility of the President to protect the populace of the country. We need guidance from the White House. What we are getting is excuses and “blame the other guy” press conferences (aka campaign rallies). Our Governors have the power in their states. They say when we open. The Feds need to support the Governor’s decisions. Some Governors need to stop sucking up to the President and listen to the science. Do not open until the science says it is okay. I know this sounds hypocritical because I said the Governors have the power. That doesn’t mean, to me, that they can use the power in stupid ways.

I have been lucky. I am still employed. I know many who are not, many who will not be again. I have been lucky. No one I know has died of Covid-19. I know some who were infected but have recovered. I have been lucky. My family and other loved ones are healthy and safe. I have been lucky. Others not so much.
