You might be the few that care about helping out others will do as they please

They should just make it a fine if you don't have one 1st 200$
2nd 500$
3rd 1000

YES !! I've been saying what you just said for a while now. Hate to say it, but I don't think it's feasible though. When the majority of people just won't do it anyway (because they're stupid), then there really isn't any use for fines. People just don't give an F.

Unless there's a vaccine, I almost think me and my immediate family are going to be the last people standing.

Grow up? It's saving life's it's the only way people will listen
- gerbe75pts

yes. grow up. plain and simple.
the only way? what, by taking away all of their liberties? you are on record saying the only way police listen is if you lie to them. is anyone telling the truth now? or just lying and getting people to listen? I'll make my own decisions and you can make yours.

you and the other 98.5% of people that have been tested and didn't die, and the 100% of everyone else that contracted it and never got tested and didn't die and on and on.

Keep doing what you're doing then and just hope you don't catch it, and if you do, that you make a full recovery. Me ? I'll keep wearing a mask, as our son has underlying conditions, and we just CAN'T risk catching Covid-19. I would hope that everyone would keep people like him in their minds when deciding whether to wear a mask or not. Something tells me most people in this country just don't give an F.

I wear a real actual respirator that will really actually save my life and yours. you are actually putting me at risk just wearing a poopty cotton mask. I'm not mad about it and I'm not going to force you to either. preach on though.

we are blowing up in florida since they opened the state up

news is not even talking about it

another 900 cases in the last 24 hours

- homiedclown

A little over 400 of them are in Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. The others are spread around the other 64 counties (says there's a link to full county by county breakdown, but the data I saw there was old). The next few weeks will reveal a lot, now that many are out and about again. 52,000 cases statewide out of the 910,000 tests administered.
2,252 FL deaths have been attributed to the covid19 virus.

I wear an N95 and the ONLY place I go is Wegmans (seriously), every other week on a Tuesday night, just before they close when there's hardly anybody else there.

I realize I'm not going to change your mind, and you won't change mine. Let's just end it at that. Thanks for keeping it civil ... I appreciate that.

Carry on.

5:05pm.

Worked like a dog through the whole weekend. Had to beat an emergency project on a very tight deadline. It's hotter than hell and sunny in ROC, and here I am earning some income when I can. Hit send on all the analysis and draft documents 45 minutes ago.

And now I'm listening to clinking ice cubes.

The 7 teams that didn't qualify to continue their seasons will be joined by the 8 teams that get knocked out of the best of 5 series' to make for a 15 team draft lottery.

Either that, or the entire league will be in the lottery just like the Crosby draft year.

We lose again.

- Losman

No way does the entire league get put into the lotto. The crosby draft was like that due to the whole season being canceled.

Most likely will be the 7 team lotto. Why else would the 7 non playoff teams agree to the 24 team playoff unless they are getting some benefit in this. Smaller lotto equals a big benefit.

We would have saw 7 more teams vote with Tampa and Carolina if the non playoff teams were getting the shaft balls deep.

Your liberties. Oh brother you sound daft. The governments job is to govern the masses when they are too stupid to do what's right on their own. Case in point, right now.

Its no wonder fascist dictatorships have better results during covid 19. Go outside and enjoy your liberties, just do the rest of us a favor while doing so, add a 1 to that death count.
