That is a good point. Eating out, while something that can present a good opportunity with friends and loved ones, isn't such a big deal in the grand scheme of things/socially, though this mess still threatens to ruin businesses.

Right? God forbid people learn how to cook and have a table set for friends at home, with music, wine and a meaningful conversations. But nah...thats impossible with 4 roommates and a blank personality.

Throughout life you must adapt (thats why we're humans, we can adapt better than any species on this planet), aint no sense crying about things that you have no control over, I might as well get upset every time it rains or snows

Ppl need to get over themselves

Like a bunch of overgrown babies in diapers

I am certain, you’ll champion welding people into their homes as soon as a politician says it.

Just following orders. Right?
Do you accept the consequence that if you drive drunk you are making a choice and endangering public safety and as a result you will be arrested?

If so, there's your answer.

Accept the consequence or don't. You made your choice.

Whites have more and better access to restaurants.

Is this Equity or Equality?
Wait, the obvious libs on here have been blaming conservatives for not getting the vax. All of these blacks and latinos are conservative? So conservatives are getting shut out of dining? This is hard to keep up with.

No need to downplay his experience.

Don't roll the dice to figure out if you will be the unlucky one that needs a double lung transplant.

The whole natural immunity argument is like saying hey "you should drink more alcohol more regularly so you build up tolerance and become resistant to hangovers"

Well there’s always the argument that if you’re drunk you’re drunk. Are you automatically assuming everyone that isn’t vaccinated has Covid??

Why did they allow indoor dining before there was a vaccine then? I know it was limited capacity but I sat in a restaurant with other people and gasp! We were all unvaccinated.

This is all about control now. You can’t convince me otherwise. This ******* mayor was telling everyone to go to Chinatown to celebrate Chinese New Year during the first outbreak.

People stopped going to restaurants on Eighth Avenue in Brooklyn and the local politicians were out there with the owners, doing the same and insinuating that it was racist to avoid these establishments. I've passed these places in the daytime and they are full of Chinese people, so if anyone was avoiding them it was their own people!
