I really think that people should be allowed to do whatever they want, provided that they sign a release agreeing that they won't seek medical treatment if they get COVID-19. My wife and daughters do not risk their lives to save people who bring this on themselves.

I lead, you follow.
When facts are presented? Maybe. Until then, it's really of no debate.
However when a "source" widely known to edit their footage and splice in their own dashes of audio creativity to achieve the results they want puts forth "evidence"... said evidence is generally taken with a grain of salt.
If I've known someone to lie my whole life, why would I just start to randomly believe them when the topic has changed?

Although I quoted your post for content, my reply is not directed at you personally. It needs to be noted that the curve has essentially flattened since April 7...about 1 in 164,000 die daily. While I personally don't know anyone who has died from it, I do know someone personally who was flirting with death because of this.
With that said, we also need to note the severity of economic impact. Yesterday I went by a small local burger/burrito joint I go to every other week and it had closed down. This is just a week after one of the state's most iconic restaurants permanently shut down. And this is despite the fact that Hawaii has the lowest fatality rate in the country. UHERO, which is the University of Hawaii's Economic Research Organization, had a survey of local businesses and almost a third were bringing in zero revenue, 24% of businesses face closure, and almost a quarter million full- and part-time jobs have been lost. Tens of thousands of brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers are directly affected by not having a source of income, wondering if they'll make rent or mortgage this month or even be able to put enough food on the table. And this is with all of 16 deaths throughout an entire state of over 1.4 million.

Yes but what state are the masks in?
Yeah, a little better than that one.
No shit, yesterday I finally got around to hitting Popeye's (the local burger shop I mentioned in an earlier post has closed down, so I had to go someplace else close by) to try the Spicy Chicken sandwich (which was OK, but not what everyone makes it seem like). I enter the store with my cloth mask on and head up to the counter where they have a plexiglass fucking blast wall from the countertop up to about seven feet from the floor so even if Yao Ming came in to order they were safe. And this shield wasn't just in front of her but also on both sides, going back about three feet. So I try to order through my mask and the 1/4" plexiglass, and the order taker didn't hear me at first so I had to almost shout my order back. When she expectedly got the order wrong (large Coke instead of Diet Coke), I told her the order was wrong. She said something which I couldn't quite make out, so when I asked her to repeat herself, she--you guessed it--pulled down her mask and yelled back "you said large Coke" with her face almost against the blast shield. I then said, "and that's why you're working fast food", took my shit and left.

Ditmer extended Michigan until May 28th. The senate said they would not allow this to happen. Waiting on the response. What we have is a Governor punishing the whole State for one area (Detroit).
Local bakeries, bagel shops, and previously closed restaurants on the west side of the State are opening up for takeout and drive through to try to survive a governor who can’t read the geographic content of the reports.
She is now treading on one of the most financially impactful weekends for small communities on the West side of the State.
There are better ways to go about this....

The mile long food lines just don’t seem to matter to some people....

That has to be a BS story! You didn't call her Dipshit even once.Yeah, a little better than that one.
