    I wouldn't be surprised if some of the 10 million out of a job in the past couple weeks are contributing to those threats, regardless of political affiliation.

    True, but it's been my experience that only Trump supporters are that stupid.

    Heartening : )

    Although I can't stand videos that try to force emotional atmosphere with stupid music. Mute.

    And the four deer in a field in Suffolk UK.. I'm pretty sure that's just usual.

    I thought of another point..
    People keep saying the virus doesn't discriminate.. But it does; it's more likely to kill people with underlying health issues. Something lots of people don't like to talk about (although most are comfortable blaming smokers for their lung cancer) is how sooo many underlying health issues are the result of shitty diet/lifestyle.
    It's not like individuals can't take steps to be safer against all disease and illness. Our NHS would also find itself much less under pressure if people were healthier in general.

    It is more than a little alarming to see state officials now beginning to drill down into products that stores will be permitted to sell, or not sell, within businesses that are permitted to remain open during the COVID-19 mitigation effort.
    Interestingly Vermont is the home state for Comrade Bernie Sanders; a candidate for the position of president, and is a self-described socialist with favorable opinion toward Comrade Fidel Castro of Cuba. Amid all of the control efforts by various totalitarian state officials, this connection does not seem accidental.
    Roping-off sections of products, and banning the sale of specific and designated products within businesses that are operating contingent to the approval of the state authority, takes the control function of government to an entirely new level.
    We The People, perhaps as a group who have taken some basic precepts of freedom and liberty for granted, would be wise to look at what is taking place within the big picture.
    Various government officials and interests of the state are taking advantage of the current crisis to test how far they can pull the levers of control. Perhaps you do not garden; perhaps you never purchase seeds; perhaps you do not grow your own food; that’s not really the issue here…. stopping your ability to do so should alarm everyone.
    First they told you not to leave home except for essential services. Now they tell you what those services are; and in doing so they define and limit access to products, thereby controlling your behavior to permit only those activities approved by the state.
    Freedom is a tenuous proposition; take nothing for granted.
    Eyes wide open.

    During the 1918 influenza Pandemic one of the common underlying health conditions was Tuberculosis (TB)

    In 2020 the most common underlying health condition (at least here in America) is obesity and everything associated with it.

    As the data rolls in over the next couple of months it should be quite revealing.

    The government should never place any restrictions on anyone during a world wide emergency.
