As I begin to outline my book in my head I would begin with the initiation of this lockdown.
I think we’ve all bit a bit harsh on the American public. Bear in mind that none of us has ever experienced this before. We have children, families, elder moms and dads. When they said stay inside, we did. We did because of the concern we had about sickness and, frankly the shock of it all.
As the days passed, the schools closed, the businesses shut or went to part time, we began to scratch our heads. We weren’t expecting that at all.
Soon we’re all sitting home like we never did when flu and viruses were all around us in prior years and some of us got it, some of us died.
All of a sudden we got politicos telling us we can’t sit on our piers and fish, we must wear face masks although at first face masks good, then they bad, then they good again. Politicos telling us to stop our bitching about jobs and walk away from the one you lost and get hired by those “necessary” businesses.
The politicos were filled with power and importance and us schlubs began to wonder just what monster we have created.
We are now at the point, many of us....most of us I’d argue, that we’re tired of listening to some shiny faced newly elected female power grabber from Michigan, an NY Gubnor who sent Covid patients to a nursing home ....illustrating his knowledge of it all.
We’ve had the gummit (as Bray calls it) tell us that 2 million will die in America alone while “experts” change their summation on a daily basis.
AB....it began last week. Next week it will get louder. Americans do tend to learn the things the hard way but once we learn it, we handle it.
Soon Americans will flip Whitmer the bird, tell Cuomo to go back to school, ban Fucho from the stage and give scarf lady more scarves and tell her to go away.
We might have no power but we have one major, MAJOR, thing on our sides.
WE HAVE OUR NUMBERS!!!
There are millions of us. There are not enough jails to put us in.
We will fight back, not with guns or cannons, but by opening our front door and ,wearing no damn face mask, go our way.
And we will know that somebody tried to bring our country down. But nobody can bring down America over our powerful military.
But for want of some big bucks to better get elected, many sold us down the tubes. “A Virus!” somebody thought. “That’s the ticket!”
We will find them and we will bring them down.
That was the day a single profession basketball player was diagnosed and the NBA stopped the game (the Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder) and the next day canceled the ENTIRE season, as well as the NCAA March Madness tournament also was canceled.
And then right on cue:
Dr. Anthony Fauci was responding to a question asked by Rep. Glenn Grothman, a Wisconsin Republican, “is the NBA underreacting or is the Ivy League overreacting?” Grothman was referencing how the Ivy League recently cancelled its basketball tournaments, instead of having them without fans or keeping the status quo.
“We would recommend that there not be large crowds,” Fauci said. “If that means not having any people in the audience when the NBA plays, so be it. But as a public health official, anything that has crowds is something that would give a risk to spread.”
Then cancellations started left and right, and within a few days even Major League Baseball canceled opening day!
Cities and states also started jumping on the bandwagon.
But like the question for our generation, “Where were you when you heard JFK was shot?” this one will be “Where were you when Rudy Gobert got COVID-19?”
I hope so. Right now, most people want to stay in hiding.
Most people aren’t like us. They believe what the DNCMedia tells them.
All yesterday on different forums, I was furiously defending the President, and swatting down people saying he told us “to drink bleach.”
Whether they just want to believe the worst, or the media reports falsely, or both, too many are bat-shit crazy.
