Should the entire US just lock down for 6 weeks?

So you’re telling me there’s a chance.

Once the virus got here, likely in 2019 there was not much going to stop it. Americans are going to do whatever they want. Each state made its decision. It will eventually run its course. I agree with DONK, if the rate of death would have been a much higher rate, people would have gone nuts. The medical people are refining treatments etc. Its not going to be this bad forever.

Because we lack leadership.

you mean like the leadership in Minneapolis and NY as an example? Seattle? Atlanta perhaps?

If you are sick enough to transmit it a mask might help. But these people that think a mask is the magic bullet, are delusional. The CDC and science experts have said it will not prevent transmission.

Exactly. As if we simply tell people who test positive to just be careful and wear a mask?

I don't know anyone that thinks wearing a mask is a silver bullet. Just that it may help. So if one of those little virus pearls hits my mask while i have it on it may stop me froim becoming infected. Suffering from asthma, i will be thank-ful for that.

The longer the lockdown waits to start the longer it will last. THe numbers are spiking again. People are filling up hospitals again. It's a disaster.

We locked down from March until May....didn’t do any good and the virus isn’t going away....we are all “gamblers” right???

**HockeyRocks** · 07-17-20, 03:25 PM

Trump has absolutely nothing, nothing to brag about going into the election. He will be CRUSHED and HUMILIATED on Nov. 3rd.

Leadership starts from the top. A leader leads by example not by dividing a nation on every damn subject.

When everyone hates the leader you get what you get....fukk all these lousy governors and mayors..

governors run their states the way they want to....why did they need the federal leader to hold their fukking hand and tell them what to do???

everyone has to blame someone...no accountability for themselves

Just make it a law social distancing and masks for the United States many stores now especially the big ones not allowed in anywhere without a mask

**thechaoz** · 07-17-20, 03:59 PM

The right wing dumb penetrates are costing us our seasons. Blaming Dems when THEY are in control. You know that right?

Good for them though, because they are perfectly fine sitting inside on their fat asses, eating fast food, watching Faux news and sitcoms for the lowest common denominator IQ level.

Enjoy retards.

At a minimum this "crisis" goes up to the election in November.

I would think deep down everyone can agree on that.

Get the virus under control, but it would destroy the economy.

But the economy is screwed either way and at this rate no one will let American citizens into their country until next summer.

Very interesting dilemma.

Lock down wouldn't do any good unless it was enforced by the federal government.

That won't happen, so a lock down would make the economy suffer much worse for nothing.

**MinnesotaFats** · 07-17-20, 04:44 PM

Lefties want masks to be a law

What is the fukkin point?

Lefties release prisoners

Lefties burn down cities, take over city hall & police precincts, murder at unimaginable rates then defund the police who'd supposedly enforce the law....

Why would anybody obey any law passed or created by a lefty?

**pavyracer** · 07-17-20, 04:48 PM

If we listened to Trump and didn't lock down and didn't wear masks in bsck in March Biden would have been up by 30 points in the polls now because half of the republicans would have died.

Some on the right still believe it's a hoax, they're the ones that think lysol, clorox etc works and that if you take a shower in hydroxychoroquine your cured.

Unfortunately not.
Some economists are predicting that the US dollar supremacy as the reserve currency are numbered.
Not a matter of if but when. The rest of the world is seeing a large crack in the armor of the once great USA.
This is of huge significance because then you can no longer print your way out of hell.
These are "the good old days" right now. The sh!t hasn't hit the fan yet.

**PAULYPOKER** · 07-17-20, 05:09 PM

Yesterday the US shattered the single day record with 73,388 new cases..

Today looks very much like the record will be obliterated.

The rest of the world shakes its head in pity and wonderment at America's ineptitude. Along with president Trump, who has bungled and actively undercut nearly every federal effort to address this National Health Disaster Americans are dealing with.

you are in your bathroom right now smoking rocks, while your family is planning an intervention and your daughter in on the trump boat parade getting tag teamed by good ol trump supporting white guys because she still has a little sense in her head.
