    GDF what’s happening in Houston, Dallas and other southern cities is the result of many such horror stories.
    I don’t advocate shutting down again but treating it as a hoax or political plot is stupidity. There are options like wearing masks, social distancing and not gathering in large crowds especially indoors that do slow the spread.
    Many here say that soon everyone will be exposed. I agree but don’t want to need a hospital room and have none available.
    There’s a balance that is needed and too few recognize or maybe care that what they do impacts others.

    I see it this way,.. we'd have been far better off in the long run, if we'd have just let covid wash through our society, would have provided us all with a measure of immunity, without changing everyone's whole fucking world,.. yes, I feel for the dead, but a huge majority of them were frail from underlying causes, and wouldn't have lasted long anyhow,.. two years ago, 85,000 Americans died of the flu, where were the tears for them?.. why no hysteria?.. oh, that's right, CNN and FOX, didn't think that story had legs

    When you say "us all" you are one of those at the high risk age. Washing over everybody does me no good if I am one of the washed over

    @HalloweenRun is going to scare himself to death and it will be counted as a covid case, he ain't getting in the JW club. @Winston1 is just a 6'4 bleeding vag he ain't getting in. @Tiger in NC is just nuckin futz so he doesn't have a chance, court jester maybe but I doubt it because he isn't even funny.

    @LSUpride123 is our club Prez and @StaceyO is our VP.
