So there will be checkpoints on the Queens/Nassau border? Or do you mean on bridges and tunnels? This would have to be a new executive order.

You’re not a historian either, or a writer, both made very apparent every time you start typing.

To reiterate for all, this “historian” believes that it is bravado to point out that major world economies collapsing will likely lead to war. Because thousands upon thousands of years of history have proven such. But he has a degree, and says this doesn’t happen. You decide.

What the heck would make you think I want to take a monster pay cut to lead 3rd graders around a museum? Lol

My services aren’t for sale. Only my family will benefit if it comes to that. Even friends are on their own.

If it ever got to that point, a lot of people are going to learn a lot of lessons right quick.

John Wick style? Lol or like Rambo in Final Blood ? Oh my wife is scary those are her favorite movies, along with Man on Fire, the Equalizers, and Dirty Harry and Death Wish. My wife doesn't like bad people and loves the idea of killing bad people with extreme malice.

I can't find it anywhere either, but I kind of suspected something like this was coming. So even if this exact list doesn't come to pass, something similar will.

All you need to do is look at places where things are already just as bad and worse, and see what measures have already been implemented. Anything harsher than what we've already got will definitely be coming our way.

For example, California already restricted travel within and to/from the state, I believe. And places like Brussels (which seems weird to me since they only have less than 3000 cases in the whole country of Belgium) have already stipulated that no more than 2 people can be together at any given time on the street.

So, get prepared -- we will most likely be given new more restrictive measures every few days til they can get a handle on this.

We need to be more weary about where our information is coming from. There is such a lack of coordination as well.
Pretty sure you didn’t read the interaction nywriter was flapping about.

He believes that it is bravado to point out that history has proven - time and time again - that collapsing economies lead to major wars. He claims that his history degree allows him to say that this is not true.
