I'm fine with all that.....but they won't OPEN THE FUCKING COUNTRY back up.




What three things, specifically, would you like to see open up again?

Sporting events
Movie theaters
Restaurants/bars to capacity


With or without masks?

I'm sorta surprised you're prioritizing drunk people at bars over children at schools. And sporting events, too.

What has more potential damage to our nation?
- Watching sports on tv?
- A generation of kids getting a subpar education?

Yes.....I want leisure activities back in their entirety.

Masks are fine. Even mandating masks, for a period of time, is fine. But the MENTAL health of all of us is in jeopardy. No amount of education helps if our spirits are broken and we all remain locked down from doing the things we love and enjoy.

They got us all scared to travel. Scared to go places. Scared to assemble for family events, birthdays, Thanksgiving, Halloween........and all of that has a huge effect on ALL OF US....not just the 1% or less that is susceptible to dying from this illness.

My kids are going stir crazy. They want to go places and do things again.

Ok. Just find your answer sorta strange, considering you have kids.

For the record, your kids can still go to restaurants. Go to the gym. Watch movies at home. Going to things like family events, birthdays, Thanksgiving, et al... all of that is entirely up to you and your family... not the government.

So invite your family over for Thanksgiving.
Throw a birthday party.

Nobody is stopping you from doing that. It's not a vacation to Jamaica. It's not the latest Marvel movie. And it's not a Ravens game. But still... your kids will love it. Baby steps.

In completely unrelated and logical news, flu cases are down 98% this year!

What a miracle!
