I did read through the entire order. While it starts out as sounding very strict, once you get into the exceptions list, there are holes so big you could drive a truck through them. I'm not sure this is really going to help much.
Same thing here in Ohio. Except I’ve read that disobeying the order could lead to a 2nd-degree misdemeanor.
Now is not the time you want to be anywhere near a booking facility or jail. That alone should be enough motivation to steer clear of breaking the law.

Yeah that’s basically being locked in with the virus...

It's starting to happen to people who are listening to Trumps lies are dying.
Nearly three dozen people who attended a recent children's event at a church in Arkansas have tested positive for the coronavirus, according to church officials.

Things are really starting to turn South now. I think we're all in trouble.

Let's not worry about the dead, there's an economy to fix.
Yesterday, one of the first deaths of a Virginia resident from COVID-19 was a Christian musical evangelist who, believing the pandemic response to be anti-Trump “mass hysteria,” took his family to New Orleans to “wash it from its Sin and debauchery.”

The public health folks in Arizona are now saying it will hit full force here late April-early May. So much for the theory this would all go away due to the sunshine.

(Opps.. I read that as things are starting to turn in the South.)

New Orleans has perhaps the fastest virus infection rate in the world right now... Mardi Gras...

The festival is actually incredible. It took place when we as a nation SHOULD have had leadership, instead, it was called a HOAX by our President.

Exactly. We wouldn’t be in this situation with proper leadership. Germany has become a testing model.

BMW has gotten tragically quiet about his predictions and his need for business to remain open.

Read TC Talks comment, hunted it down and want to make sure this is documented in this thread:

I'm going to make 2 predictions. And you know my track record on predictions...


2 - The death toll in the United States as of 12/31/2020 as attributed to the Coronavirus will be less than 2,000 people. And I'll even give 3 to 1 odds (meaning 75% chance) that it is under 1,000 people. As such, the Coronavirus will be responsible for less than 5% of all deaths this year attributed to viruses.
Less than 2000 people?!? Add two zeroes and you still wont be close! And what kind of human being tries to pick death counts from this global tragedy like its a point spread in a football game?!?

You are a disgusting individual.

Looks like you just did, by saying that it'll be well over 200,000. At least I was being optimistic. You're predicting doom and gloom in numbers that I don't see happening, even given recent developments.

This from the person who not that long ago told a conservative poster in this forum who said he was having health issues to just kill himself already and to do it before November since Michigan is a swing state. And you have the nerve to call ME a disgusting individual after making a comment like that? :lol
