Some of the businesses eligible for reopening on April 27 include personal service providers like hair salons, dental offices and tattoo shops. Child care facilities may also reopen.

Whereas South Carolina already has a few dining zones open, Colorado restaurants and bars will stay closed initially but could be permitted to reopen in mid-May, The Denver Post quotes Polis as saying.

Some people care about others and are willing to sacrifice for others. You clearly aren’t, we’ve established that.

And yes, I am already in favor of opening back up. First time you’ve been correct yet. I wish we wouldn’t have shut down in the first place.

Apr 22, 2020, 1:19 PM

Let's just be real, the vast majority of the "Let's stay locked down for safety" crowd are only OK with it because it's not personally affecting them. You can act like some people are just so much more virtuous than others, but it's bulllshit. OK, can we agree?

Incorrect per usual. You understand that people


Apr 22, 2020, 1:49 PM

are willing to risk their lives in the military for what they believe in. But you don’t believe people who are passionate about how their actions affect the health of others, and believe right or wrong that opening up would kill many more people, would be willing to sacrifice going on unemployment for a couple months to prevent that from happening.

I know you don’t want to be treaded on in any way shape or form, and only care about yourself, but there are other viewpoints out there.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Apparently you are too dense to understand that is their


Apr 22, 2020, 2:11 PM

choice. If they want to stay home, more power to them. If they want to join the military and risk their lives, they can. The difference is in supporting policies that force ALL OF US to do those things. It's easy to support those policies when you aren't the one going broke or having your kids drafted into the military. The self righteous always scream the loudest when they get pinched.

You can get bent with your "you only care about yourself" B.S. even though you say yourself you support reopening. The virtue signaling gets so tiresome.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-lakebum1-110.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I know, it’s weird how people support policies they think


Apr 22, 2020, 2:26 PM

are best for everyone. People like her aren’t supporting staying home and ok with losing over half her income because she’s concerned about her own health. She’s 28 and active and healthy and is low risk. Its almost like she has an opinion (right or wrong) on what’s best for the country and the people in it and supports that policy. It’s weird how people have an opinion on what’s best for the ALL OF US and support that policy.

And it seems like you’re the one “screaming the loudest.” She’s “getting pinched” and is perfectly ok with it because she thinks it’s best for everyone in the long run. You may not agree with that, and that’s ok, but you should realize that not everyone believes the same thing you do.

pinched. The minute they are, they'll change their tune. I've got a 6 month old and wife to support, and just watched my final project for this year get pushed back to 2021. So yeah, I'm starting to scream, and she would too if she were me. But whatever, continue pretending human nature don't be like it do.

Hey if she is worried about infecting people with the virus


Apr 22, 2020, 2:52 PM [ in reply to I know, it’s weird how people support policies they think ]

she can wear a mask so she doesn't spread her disease, wash her hand often or use had sanitizer, so that she doesn't accidentally spread disease or wear gloves or both.

This is what I do when I go into a public place or get around other people. I put on a mask and then liberally apply had sanitizer that is kept in my cars and truck. That way I have a very good chance of not being infectious. I also maintain at least 6 feet of distance as another precaution to protect others.

I am very careful. If I get infected the only person that I could easily pass the virus to would be my wife.

people who want to stay quarantined or open up are right or wrong. The OP was trying to paint the picture that there’s only backlash against southern, Republican governors, and I was proving that’s not the case. Doesn’t make for as good of a victim Republican narrative, but oh well.

Going to go eat an apple and hope it keeps the doctor away. Actually Publix had some good apples but their blueberries suck. Local farm had really delicious blueberries a few weeks back. I shohave bought more.

Which brings me to the point of this post _ local farmers markets, boat ramps, fishing piers, parks and beaches should be open with common sense rules for each. Outside venues should be first to open.
