Good link on Georgia re-opening.

“Re-opening” is not the magic bullet some think it is.

This will be a long slow slug until most folks believe the virus is either under control or has mostly run its course.

Calling folks names (often seen here on FR) won’t encourage them to get back to normal, it will just convince them there are a lot of crazy people out there that need to be avoided.

Re: 78 - Good post.

Unfortunately the name calling is alive and well on FR, I think more now due to the stress that some people are under.

No matter what, we need to get people back to work. Even if it means wearing a bunny suit (haha), or whatever, we need to get back to work. As you rightly note, it’s going to take some time. I believe the economic damage will take years to repair.

Ayup.

And catching states ‘doctoring’ the case numbers won’t help either.

Very true, I see it way to much on Free Republic. They are called Griefers in the gaming world. Unfortunately this behavior has found its’ way to Free Republic. You can identified them by their use of undesirable hateful vocabulary. My new standard reply now to a rude reply/comment is SO.

Note: You can find this same undesirable hateful vocabulary used regularly on another site that rants about how bad Trump is.
