Anonymous Coward User ID: 77074821 Portugal 04/01/2020 08:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.wcax.com (secure)] Quoting: *<3sugar&spice<3* All other areas in these big stores are now blocked off. I work in one. You can only buy essential items. No clothes, no toys, no electronics, no arts and crafts, no sporting goods items, no hardware items, lawn and garden centers are closed, auto care centers are closed...the only things you can buy now are: Food Pharmacy items Personal items like soap, shampoo, etc. Paper products - toilet paper, paper towels, paper plates, etc. Pet Food Only certain baby items - diapers, wipes, formula, baby food, bottles, but no cribs and stuff like that. The reason they had to do this was because people were literally going to these big stores and walking around, browsing, etc. because they are bored. Its sad it had to come to this. Non essential items can still be ordered online however, and many offer "pick up today" options. That is quit radical, here in Europe we have nothing of the sorts. |

Who are they to determine what is essential to one person and not another? I need office paper and office supplies, someone else may need toddler clothes because the baby outgrew their clothing.

Quoting: Redcat1 So now he has his model of what to do next. Insane. He is social shaming everyone in Kentucky by using social media for the Facebookers to monitor the state. If you buy mulch, you are photographed. He calls it "peer pressure." I call it Big Brother Overkill.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78651753 United States 04/01/2020 09:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the sick truth is we need to bite the bullet - reopen, and accept 0.66% of people who get it will die. Quoting: Rufus Juice othwerwise, many more will die when there is no country left. Good luck convincing those in power to do this. Fact is the elderly want these lockdowns because they are at greatest risk of dying from this version of the flu. We're essentially committing economic suicide and screwing over Gen X and younger (AGAIN!) to save a few more elderly lives for a strain of flu that is not too bad if you're younger and healthy. Are we going to start committing economic suicide every flu season now? The projections show that this will have a death rate twice that of the regular flu virus in the US, not in the 10's of millions as doomtards are stating. |

I cannot understand the thought process of taking an entire family out at this time anyway but people cannot manage their children. |
