Masks, anti-social distancing, no travel. The time is now to stop all

Look at it this way. When I take a 1000-mile trip and I'm 800 miles
along, I know I'm almost there.
Reasonable analogy, but we're only 150 miles along.
And if we were 800 miles out of a 1000, it would still be too early to
stop buying gas, using the wipers, minding the oil light.

But that's the way some people out there are sure to behave, because
there is a vaccine, even if they and the people they know haven't gotten
it yet.
The tragic and stupid part is that some of those people are governors.
In Texas for example, the governor removed the requirement for masks.
One city, think it was Austin, issued a requirement to continue wearing them
there. The Republican AG is going to court to try to stop it. So now in TX,
responsible businesses, eg Walmart are in a terrible position. They still are
doing what's right, requiring masks, but Trumptards are showing up, saying
it's illegal, I don't have to wear one, threatening them, causing police calls,
etc.

Florida is another good example, Spring Break (again) in the midst of Covid
denial.


If you want to wear Depends on your face, go ahead.Â* No one is stopping you.
