We’re almost to 10 thousand posts. Everyone ready for a new thread?
Oh my goodness, weston. That’s so funny. I just jumped back to this thread to ping you and ask if you were going to start a new one!

Ty, hm
Let ‘er rip! Unless you want to wait until 10,000. Up to you, dear weston.
Yes Please.
YES!
We could wait until we are out from under house arrest.
You could have a Freedom Thread
We’ll probably be close to 10k again by April 30. We’ll for sure start a FREEDOM Thread whenever we get out of jail. Great idea Gub!
I’m amazed it has taken this long.
This will spread like wildfire.
From the article:
If you’re thinking this sounds crazy, you’re right. But expecting people who live on the streets to take better care of themselves during a pandemic is really missing the point entirely. If they could take better care of themselves they wouldn’t be on the street in the first place. So issuing guidance by handing out fliers isn’t going to do much. The only way to prevent this population from becoming a hot spot for the spread of the virus is to take control of the situation and make sure people comply. Otherwise, a lot of these people are going to die and they are going to take up a lot of hospital beds, potentially putting others at risk.
When you think about it, the coronavirus is just the same old arguments we have had about the homeless for years, only on steroids. A lot of homeless people already die every year because we let them carry on as they wish even as they create a risk of spreading diseases like typhus and typhoid to people around them. I guess we’ll see if the threat of coronavirus changes the calculation or if we’ll still allow addicts and people with mental problems to carry on like normal.
Hey, Vipper!
I haven’t received any emails from you.
Oh my gosh!
Praying for you!!!

the article was published 2 days ago - let’s say 03/28/2020
at the time of the article, it had been 17 days since the symptoms - let’s say symptoms started 03/11/20200
symptoms showed up 3 days after the party - let’s say the party was 03/08/2020? 3/8/2020 was a Sunday.
U.S.A. wasn’t in a panic\lockdown\stayaway mode yet, on 03/08/2020. There were 19 dead and less than 400 cases total on 03/07/2020 and they were called presumptive cases.
My daughter had family tickets on a cruise that hadn’t yet been cancelled as of 03/10/2020. and she was unsure whether to go or not. She decided to not go just about the same time it was cancelled.
I’m thinking I’d give this lady grace for being at that party.
The other questions that you have are legit...
How the heck did I miss this back in 2017?
Welcome Home, brothers.
*** From my experience redheads have the most fun. ***
Danger Will Robinson Danger!
MSM has been spittin the “per capita” angle for awhile.
They keep asking him about it it, trying to discredit his “more testing than anyone...” statements.
His answer is exactly right. compare 58 million people stuffed into a country which is 20% the size of California, with 330+ million people over the size of the U.S. to include Alaska\Hawaii and the protectorates?
I love it when the President says “Here we go...” when the first couple of words of the question are hardly out of the reporter’s mouth.
