I don’t know where you live, but we sure aren’t locked down out here in W. Texas. Yes, I have to wear a mask occasionally [but only 3 times so far, which I hate], but we’ve been to restaurants, grocery stores and pretty much wherever things are opened back up.
I live in CenTex. Bars all closed, restaraunts are kind of open. No sports, concerts, etc. Masks everywhere. Abbott has us mostly locked down because he is a bush leaguer. My thinking is that it is not his place to lock anything down just because the stupid protests/riots caused a spike. Everybody that was going to get COVID will still eventually get it. All the moron Abbott is accomplishing is helping Biden and the Rats spread their narrative.
