Now how could I forget NY?

“Unchecked illegal immigration”? Geek geek geek … that’s so last decade … you gotta keep up better. Illegal immigration is quite down from Mexico, and from central America is shared by Texas and Arizona. By the way, did you know that the greatest numbers of illegals are from visa overstays by especially students from all around the world?

To say nothing of the fact that foreign immigration, legal and illegal both, is entirely under federal purview, not states’? So, check in with congress in ‘Blue’ DC for that issue. And the P&OC forum has a special sub-forum for discussing just that!

(By the way also, are you aware that your state has one of the higher proportions of illegals relative to total population compared with all other states? … you can look it up. … if that frightens you, you could probably post about it in your PA state forum!)

I know this isn't CA but just thought it was interesting results considering we will be revisiting the school mask mandate in a few weeks. Though the decision probably has nothing to do with "science".

Good data. Shows masking at this point is more about telling people what to do than science.

Yes, like when they told us when we were kids if nukes ever got launched that we should just hide under our desks.

Just got back from several errands - maskless.

It felt like.....normal, like it should be.

It's now easy to identify the Covidians still living in fear and blind obedience; walkers wearing masks outside by themselves, drivers wearing masks, shoppers wearing masks in parking lots, shoppers wearing masks indoors.

Lol, right? I put this with our coast will be underwater, we’ll be out of drinking water, and everyday will be 100° as other things they knew full well weren’t true, but knew we’d be naive enough to believe them.

It's great! About 40%ish didn't have any on this morning at the gym. Just got back from Target and about 80-85% still had them on.

Celebrities at the super bowl don't need to mask up and neither do your politicians.... but you are making your school kids wear them? End the madness.

The "game", as you call it, is not over. I will continue to wear an N-95 mask until most of my country is vaccinated.

This is not a game. It's a deadly virus.

I am going to venture a guess - you are not a medical doctor or a scientist.

Perhaps, stick to things you know, like beer.

Where are you and what percentage of people would you say were unmasked?
