#FloridaMorons trending on Twitter. Here’s why.
Tampa Bay Times ^ | April 18, 2020 | Diana C. Nearhos

Jacksonville, led by its Republican Mayor Lenny Curry, was the first to allow people back onto the beaches. On Thursday, Curry announced the city’s beaches would reopen for “essential activities” from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. each morning and from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. each evening. They remain closed during all other times.

Curry defined essential activities the same way DeSantis defined them in a previous executive order: walking, hiking, fishing, running, swimming, taking care of pets and surfing. Gatherings of 50 or more people are prohibited and people must still practice social distancing.

Other beaches across Florida, such as those in Pinellas County, remain closed.

Check out the pic in the article. Specifically, a very interesting dynamic going on between the couple with the dachshund on the right and the lone woman on the left. Anyone see what I see? Yeah, that's an "essential activity" alright!

“its beaches”

“our beaches” would be more like it.

Sunlight kills the virus. The catch is that people will have to make sure they do not get too closes to each other.

Twitter is not reflective of reality. Time and time again, people fall for this garbage. What “trends” on Twitter is what Twitter allows to trend, what Twitter promotes, and what leftist bots bump up.

97% of political Tweets on Twitter come from less than 10% of its users, the overwhelming majority of which are far left libtards and various bots.

The media goes nuts for what “trends” on Twitter, because they are embedded in that 10%.

It isn’t just trending on twitter—I believe Encylcopedia Britanica is working on an article for the next edition of the Macropedia.

MSM has it’s guns pointing at that beach. They cannot allow this. They will be hunting for anyone closer than 6’. It will be used to scream “see we cannot relax, people will not self distance we must keep the country closed!”. It’s BS of course the virus will not spread on a sunny beach. The officials there said we can only do this if everyone follows the rules. That is all MSM needed to hear. They figure they can nip the insurrection in the bud. Failing that paint the people on the beach to be idiots, hence the hashtag.

Is earning a paycheck an essential activity?

“There is not, as of writing, any medication which has been shown in controlled trials to significantly hasten recovery from covid-19, “


They sure as heck do not want anyone to learn that simple old vitamin C in high doses is actually a VERY potent anti-viral and is already in use saving lives from this virus.

I for one have HAD ENOUGH of the deliberate supression of life saving information from the WHO, Facebook, Google and DR.FAUCI.

WHY do we tolerate life saving information being withheld when our loved ones are dying. ENOUGH! Stand up and do something. We are AMERICANS, NOT A BUNCH OF SHEEP BEING LED TO SLAUGHTER!

What else should one expect from a Democrat newspaper?

The Democrats are using corona virus to beat down the American Public into submission of totalitarian authorities.

Meanwhile, President Trump and Governor Ron DeSantis are offering hope and freedom.

3 feet outside with a breeze far exceeds a distance of 6 feet inside with quiet air.

It’s really not the beaches or really even Florida, however it is DeSantis, the Tampa Bay time is the number on anti Trump and anti DeSantis rags in the state.

While I may quibble with certain individual actions and timing of the actions I think DeSantis has done an outstanding job.

The Twitter posts they selectively included are full of moronic, I'll-follow-whatever-my-Democrat-masters-tell-me idiot rantings.

Hey, morons, if you want to self-isolate, do it. Just leave everyone else to decide for themselves. Ahh, but that's the rub, eh? Leftists aren't in it for themselves. They just want to control everyone else...
