Yea, lock down, accept for any minority. If they were also required to lock down Trump would be called racist. Oh that's right , Democrats are always pulling the race card, that is nothing new.

As for your disgusting insults toward folks that have a different political bent than yourself, you can see right there why Trump won in 2016, and will win again in November. Not because we're "stupid" but because Americans are finally seeing that the left is the party that truly divides this country.
I'll bet Obama learned about it in the news like the rest of us did. He was too busy hanging out with his celebrity buds.

From what I've read, 99.2% of those who have died in Italy had another serious underlying condition, meaning that those without any risk factors face the same mortality rate as they face every winter during flu season, and we don't destroy the nation's economy over that.

People who are advocating for a national lockdown (mostly liberals) are denying the ultimate costs of a destroyed economy: rip-roaring poverty rates, which themselves carry a higher risk of disease and death.
You don't seem to understand that the non-elderly are disease vectors and are also getting infected and dying as well. A great majority of the elderly and those with serious medical conditions are already staying at home. Maybe the young people on the beaches are the ones that need to be addressed instead.

COVID-19, a nasty strain of the flu, comes straight out of Communist China who allowed the virus to evolve and spread and come into America. Trump closed off travel with China, a decision criticized by Democrats.

Still, it arrived, perhaps as far back as November. No one cared back then, especially the left. Democrats /Leftists were too busy with the impeachment farce.

Exactly, Bungalove - when I see young people blowing this off, it's really infuriating. They are responsible for pretty much ALL future spread. They're the only ones outside.


Data from china says 80% of spread was from non-symptomatic carriers. That's you, young people.

Trump 2020!
He is the best choice. If Dems were serious they would run a serious candidate.

Both Trump, Obama and the Bush administrations are all to blame for this. They bend over backwards for their corporate donors/buddies who lobby them to allow laws to be passed to push trade agreements with a country that has clearly shown to be an enemy of the Western world.

China has been poisoning the Americas (not just the USA, but Canada, Middle American and South America as well) with tainted dog food, toys, building material and infrastructure, knock off drugs and other products and yet none of the leaders do nothing.

They are taking over Jamaica and no one bats an eye. They are colonizing the hell out of Africa and try to disguise it as charity, but make no mistake, they are building roads, electricity, plumbing and other infrastructure in exchange of the natural resources African provides. And it will be a matter of time before Chinese push the African people out like the Europeans did. But, it's no longer racist Whitey, so who cares, right? And China won't give a crap about Black Pride and Black Lives Matter. You march in their streets for equal rights, they will shoot you down like a rabid dog.

And while this is happening, remember, corporate America, run by the racist white people are the ones who sent the jobs to China, and paid off Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Obama and Trump to allow it to happen. So, one has to wonder, is Chinese government working for the Chinese, or are they working for the corporations? Or do the powerful dynasty families of the world actually own China and are using them as their new foot soldiers? China has been caught spying on the US military infrastructure, trying to smuggle into the USA and Mexico. There was even 39 Chinese nationals that were found dead in a refrigeration truck in the UK. What was that all about and how come the media, which is owned by the same corporations, are not talking about it anymore? They care more about Trump calling it the Chinese virus than wondering what is CHina really up to????????

Before than, I even remember reading articles from some lame stream media sources claiming the virus could actually be GOOD for the stock market and the economy! The lame stream media did a particularly awful and terrible job delivering the facts in a timely manner. Media giants like CNN work and take orders from the Chicoms, so it's no surprise.

The March 11th article shows that the right-wing has been saying COVID19 is no big deal up to the beginning of March!!!!!!!!

Even in March they were saying the seasonal flu is a bigger threat!!!!

And even today, you will find plenty of right-wingers who are dismissing it as some MSM hoax. That includes you. And that was Trump up until a week ago.

It's time to stop living in fantasy and face reality. Step one is to realize we are in the mist of a pandemic.
