I wonder how they'll feel when people start getting desperate and violent crime starts increasing. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

You raise a very good point (with or without the violent crime).

I would agree that the same poll questions asked of about 6,000 Americans
say in 3 weeks - at the end of May - might well reveal different results,
as the survey merely suggests the way people feel last week of April.

Mind you, with many states now reopening, *IF* the covid-19 infection
shows no real sign of slowing and the death toll continues at the current
unprecedented rate of about 1,900 - 2,000 per day (or worse!) then it
would be interesting to see how the majority feels then

You or someone you know is going to DIE you stupid Cawk sucker, can't you morons get it through your thick heads. Look what happened EVERYWHERE they opened it up quickly or didn't shut it down fast enough. Amazing how penetrating stupid you people are.

More than half of the counties in the United Sates have ZERO cases.

Probably polled 100 people from NYC

Huh???
WTF???
77 counties in my state..
71 have confirmed cases...
Believe that is more than half..
My state must be an anomaly...

This just shows the complete pussification of the U.S. I can't believe it, we've gone from "Nothing to fear but fear itself" to "I only have a 99.5% chance of surviving so let me stay home and watch netflix until all the risk of living is mitigated out of my life." It really makes me sad to see. Add that to the total indifference of the country that caused this bullshit, and I can easily see why China will be the new ruling empire in about 20 years. So get used to being told what to do people because even though we call ourselves the home of the brave, it just isn't so anymore. Glad that I'm at the end on my life and will probably check out within 20 years if all goes well.

The media scared everyone we’re in for massive damage for the next three years

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

are you saying that we shouldn't listen to the 29% of people???

only 14% of the US population is black... Should we not listen to them either??

[Hushie]

F out of here with your BS poll.

Donald Trump, Feb 26:

"When you have 15 people, and the 15
-- within a couple of days --
is going to be down to close to zero,
That’s a pretty good job we’ve done!"

Everything just seems very very strange

Deaths. Not cases. Totally my mistake.

Half the counties don't have any coronavirus deaths.
