Bro...you and I both know what’s going on here.

That it’s perpetually being allowed to continue is just astonishing.

Where has the tax dollars gone of these years? To the six-figure workers and pensioners living in luxury?
Louisiana is a Republican-ran state. Alot of Covid-19 cases there. Minnesota is a liberal, Democratic state and has a low incidence of Covid-19.

Mmmhmm. It is abundantly clear that certain nonsense is permitted to fester here but stick it to them and it’s a problem.

Sigh. Higher density, and also a failure to understand that comparing current cases to deaths is not a good statistic as this is a exponential curve, not a linear one, and can be affected by multiple variables that change.

Case study of intellectual constipation caused by a diet of excessive political thoughts. Cure? The best treatment is to lay off the politics. If you take an ink spot test.....all the splatters will appear as conservative or liberal.

If you cannot critically think this one through then you won’t understand the answers given.

Perhaps move to South Dakota preferably somewhere with no internet access so we can stop these nonsense comparison post.

Like a true Trump Fan how do you draw a connection between what your originally posted on rates of infections/death and now state its because of politics?

If you want to see 3rd world squalor in the western states you listed then visit the Indian Reservations of the FLDS compounds where applicable.

So the MORE important issue is to not get infected in the first place. Easier to do if you’re in Utah than if you’re in Queens.

Geezus. What’s wrong with you folks.
these kinds of questions are being asked all the time. why can't i turn on the news without hearing some talking head shrieking about how people 'of color' are affected in greater numbers than their population representation warrants, but you aren't bellowing about what's wrong with those guys?

wow. merely clarifying the OPs question sure gets you all bent out of shape.

Maybe months from now once things settle take some time and make a trip to New York City for first-hand experience?
