The Coronavirus thread

No masks and no social distancing in church. Its much worse
Doing stuff outside in Vegas such as Red Rock Canyon

That is not true. Churches are huge spaces, everyone wears masks and are more than 6ft apart. Church is one of the best and safest places to be during this pandemic. Much safer than casinos and Wal-mart.

Shoulder to shoulder with no masks
They were actually proud and bragging that they held this event. It was like a secret operation they knew was illegal. They were thrilled they pulled it off

I don't understand you TP, you love to rag on how bad the US is doing with Covid. On the other hand you take the freedom that the US has given it's citizens during the pandemic to still move around rather than be locked down and travel across the country. Seems to me like you are in favour of tighter restrictions as long as they don't effect you. Sorta like every other person in the country.

One set of rules for himself, another for the rest of us.

Much less chance of getting sexually accosted in a casino or Wal-Mart.

Actually a much greater chance of those things happening in a casino or just about anyplace than in a Church.

I must have missed all the stories about underage boys getting raped in casinos...

I agree that they should be wearing masks in church today. I know some churches are and some aren't. I have no idea what the average church is doing today.

You are travelling a lot I think itwould be interesting if you did a survey around the contry on your travels to see what percentage are requiring masks and those that aren't. Maybe visit three churches in each area and compile some stats.

I've seen big differences in different towns
Visited Bisbee, everybody was wearing masks. The town leans left. Just visited Oatman. Very unique town. Burros roam the streets. It's a town that leans right. A lot were not wearing masks. Walked into several stores and immediately walked back out when I saw owner maskless. Bisbee 90% masked. Oatman 50% masked

I was in Florida last week and was surprised that most everyone was wearing masks where mandated.

I stayed at the Bellagio last week and witnessed a drunk/homeless looking guy sucker punch a security guard for telling him to put a mask on.

Vegas!
