AMEN!! NEVER ELECT A DEMOCRAT.....FOR ANYTHING!!

+++++

Indeed!!

The ONLY good thing to come out of this idiot Vegas shut down is that Cher’s shows are CANCELLED.

These DEMon Govs shutting down their states, in an attempt to hurt POTUS, are so obvious. I hope it ALL backfires, on them, BIGLY.

Vegas is the best city social security can buy. Vegas is a shining example of free markets my ass. Have you actually lived in Vegas - ever, I’m guessing with these long gushing odes to Vegas, you haven’t? Pro tip don’t live there Not my best choice.

One thing people don’t realize - you mention hiking - it is also the top tourist destination for outdoor activity in America. That is something people don’t understand...year round weather, mountains and canyons for hiking, climbing, mountain biking, wildlife and water sports on the largest reservoir in America. Las Vegas is a huge base for outdoor sports and activity year round.

The comments on this thread accurately describe conservatives view of the behavior of the Governor of Nevada, and likewise, the rest of the Democrat governors. However, these governors believe that what they are doing has the support of the majority of their constituents. They may be right.

Millions of Americans have bought into the media and Democrat narrative. COVID-19 is the greatest threat to humanity since the Black Death and only Democrats can save us from a horrible death. They willingly accept all of the draconian measures and believe that they are proof that the Democrats are looking out for their welfare. These people cower in their homes, refusing to venture outside, voting by mail, and doing their bit to get rid of the evil Trump.

They are the clueless camp and my well be the majority among American citizens and residents. The question is, how many of these will vote. Mail in voting and voter fraud may well deliver them a victory and this country will be in deep trouble. Las Vegas, Chicago, Portland, et al is coming to your neighborhood.

There is also a small, local ski area. My husband has been there, I haven’t.

We love the Red Rocks area, have taken elderly relatives there just to look around and everyone loved it.

Dick DeWine is a Republican.
Proof that President Trump needs to start a new political party.

The fact of the matter is that President Trump has effectively taken over the republican party and is Rebuilding it in his image.

There is no need for a new party. What is needed is for bigoted anti Republican conservatives to get with the program and follow the President

Spent allot of time there, no other room has the same feel. My biggest win ever was in Binions playing a 10-20 NL. Had two players all in, one with a Ace high flush and one with a Straight to the Ace, I had a straight flush to the 5. Todd Brunson was at the table but not in the hand, he and I have become friends over the years. It was a glorious day! Not all my days have been so glorious.

I keep trying to imagine the day when Americans will stand up and say ‘It’s Over!” “We can go back to life again!”

I’m sorry to say this, but I can’t imagine that day.

A good friend is a former MD, who now enjoys barbershop quartet performing. His group have traveled the country performing and it is his passion in retirement.

When we talked recently, I said, ‘you know that’s done, right?’ He opined about a vaccine... I pointed out that while that argument was used to get you originally to wear a mask (just until there’s a vaccine), no one is saying that now.

And just because you’ve been vaccinated will not get you a non-mask pass. This is SERIOUS. We can’t trust a vaccine that’s not 100% effective. There will be no more large gatherings to watch barbershop quartets, church revivals or concerts. There will be no Halloween. They haven’t broken the news to us yet, but there will be no Christmas either. Maybe we’ll just ship ‘em something and watch it on TV. And don’t you dare come around me with carolers!

We’ve moved from ‘flattening the curve’ to ‘saving every life’ as a public policy. Now, those of us who resist the panic are condemned as uncaring louts who just think of themselves. If you’re not sharing the same level paranoia as the next person in line, if you expose your nose or God forbid your mouth, you are the personification of the evil virus itself.

Male friends I talk to often mention the social pressure from wives and family. This will not stop any time soon. It is quick becoming fashion.

The only way out of this is a change in society to a bias AGAINST mask wearing. How that will happen is anyone’s guess.

So, back to Vegas. It’s done for. Yes, it still be there for hard-bitten gamblers but for the rest of us it’s lost that care-free quality. There won’t be any more shows, or buffets. I planned to visit this year, but now why? And the same for my friend’s passion. The joy of life we felt just a few months ago is gone. And as long as we’re awarding virtue points for mask wearing, it won’t come back.

It's not stupidity. It's sabotage. The RATs want the worst America they can manage to break. The Commie left sees this as their opportunity for revolution. Burn it all down and replace it with utopia. The RAT party is the Un-American party of evil.

If more demon rats get elected there is absolutely no going back to business as usual. The demon rats are marching to the orders from the globalist oligarchy whose agenda is to end AAmerican dominance so the 'new world oligarchy order' can take effect unopposed. The end of the Republic is one election cycle away from a reality. Complacency and the inattention to responsibility by the true sovereigns (we the people) has allowed the most evil people to take controls in far too many places.

The whimpering death of Los Vegas is a symptom of a much greater catastrophe, but the death of America is coming by so many cuts that the sheeple remain clueless.

Root doesn’t mention the violence and mayhem on visitors handled in a slack manner by local LE over labor day weekend. THAT will kill vegas faster than any bureaucratic BS.

“... Reading more and more about Texan’s growing disappointment with that governor.”

People seem to be so sure that the hospitals in Texas were not over run physically and financially by covid. They have been.

The nursing homes in new yorke were devastated. The staffs were traumatized as well as massively infected. Nurses dread winter and a resurgence.

The restaurants in Texas are trying. Parking lots full. This virus was spreading in bars and at parties.

Greg Abbott is not exactly doing the destructive job of some governors allowing massive rioting.

I have, and provided care in NV. So, I appreciate your assumptions that are untrue.

I am sorry you dont like the city — you have exercised your choice to get out. What it does show is free market forces. So I am sorry you cannot rally around the ideas of freedom and liberty — that you cannot defend the choice of your fellow Americans who live and work there, and your fellow citizens who want to go there and the loss of freedom to do so

But as is typical of the year 2020, narcissistic opinions are more important than the greater good for liberty — its why we continue to slouch leftward.

I don’t see how they get them to vote now with them scattered all over the place. It’s easy when they all work on one road but without work where are they?

“I thought this covid nonsense would be over by now.“

Two months. One would guess
