The life clock is a lie. Carousel is a lie. There is no renewal....

This article from CNBC tiptoes around the coming disaster for NYC that is the 'Show me your vaccination papers to get into this restaurant" scheme that starts today.

They have NO plan to address workers or customers that cannot get the Covid vaccine for religious or medical reasons other than "tough shit" it looks like. They have NO plan to address people who were vaccinated in other countries with different vaccines than the 3 standard US ones, other than "tough luck".

I predict this whole thing comes apart in less than a month when these restaurateurs realize they have been screwed.

This part was very telling to me:

quote:

Tourists present another difficulty in implementing the mandate. Depole’s Mooyah restaurant is located between Times Square and Herald Square, two tourist hot spots, and those customers’ orders are needed.

“It seems like more of the locals are on board and understand it, but the tourists and the out-of-towners say, ‘Oh no, that’s the last time you’re going to see me in the city,’” Depole said. “It’s a polarizing issue.”

And again, this could all be brought to a screeching halt if 'all' the remaining restaurant and business owners simply stood up tall and together and said..."Nope, not doing it". This is just one more nail in their coffins, yet they are allowing someone like DeBlasio, the most inept, corrupt, buffoon in the US, to take away everything many of them have worked a lifetime to create. Middle finger salute folks. That's where you start.

My daughter just gave me a set of rules for any contact with my grandsons since I'm not getting the stab. Outside visits for now with masks (under her supervision) Strict 10 day quarantine upon arrival where she lives before indoors visits, but only 7 with clean test. I'm very sadly out.

^^^WOW, sorry to hear that...

Went to a food truck event Friday evening at a local park for a change of pace. Easily a couple hundred people there. Maybe 10% were masked. More humorous was this setup. The entire time I was there (maybe an hour and a half) I didn't see a single person in their tent. So on the way out I cruised through and asked. They'd been there for ~2.5 hours at that point and had not vaccinated a single person. Something tells me from what I saw Floridians are reaching an end point for this BS.

We were in Lowes and Home Goods Saturday, you couldn't get through the aisles at Home Goods it was packed, the checkout was 40 to 50 people deep, parking lots were packed at both. Some Masked some no, grand daughter dropped a shoe, and a lady with a Mask brought it to me, I'm not masked and there was zero confrontation either way.

Lowes parking lot was a normal non COVID day weekend full, had to help SIL buy a new hot water heater and bits, store was full, lots of people, some masked some not no maskholes.

Dinner at a mexican restaurant that night, packed, wait staff masked, patrons, mostly no, again no maskholes.

Desantis and FL have it right, protect yourself don't rely on government and our state is booming, roads full, gas stations full, stores and restaurants booming.

as BD said, Florida is has moving moved on....

That's really messed up. I hope she realizes in time just how idiotic it is to separate her children from their grandfather like that. Does she also not realize that it barely even affects children?

My 4 year old son had a little bit of fever this weekend that lasted about 36 hours, they bounce back fast. By Sunday afternoon he was his regular crazy energetic self.

pbslinger, I too am sorry to hear that. Just try and bide your time. This too shall pass. She will realize her mistake. Making a issue of it will only prevent her from ever admitting it.

And yet, there's this. You don't think the Dem's are terrified of DeSantis... I'm not going to post the article because its pure garbage, but the link is here if you want to.

'Recall Ron DeSantis' Petition Hits 35,000 Target as Delta Variant Devastates Florida

Hmmmm, I live in Central Florida and have for the past half century, yet I see no bodies piling up on the sidewalks today, and the people at the local events I see seem to be getting along with their lives just fine.

I'd go a bit further and suggest she's committing child abuse on her own kids that will damage them for the future.

This is a case study in just how effective coordinated propaganda can be. People as a whole are lazy and unwilling to do any real research and/or critical thinking on anything today, so the continual stream of propaganda and BS being churned out daily by government and the media (one and the same) has rendered the desired effect on most of the population.

No disrespect intended. But is she getting regular tests? Even if she is vaccinated, she can still catch and transmit. It's hypocritical if she is not subjecting herself to the same rigor.

They are, and they want to squash any vestiges of freedom left in the USA, both FL and TX are all they point at regarding COVID cases in the news, it's the press trying to hurt Desantis and Abbott as R free open states.

Until we agree to the Tyrants of Covid and lock down they won't stop the BS.

Very sorry to hear that, I have a neighbor who's daughter is that was, all during COVID she wouldn't let the kids near him. The mental damage she's doing is far past anything COVID will do....

pbslinger: I'm sure your daughter has the best of intentions. But, yeah, that's rough. I hope she lightens up soon.

She's willing to risk sending him to full time pre school next month, which is deemed vital and worth it, but contact with his grandfather isn't vital.

If she's concerned about you and wants you to be protected (misplaced as it might be) by being vaccinated before visiting and getting tested after visiting, that's one thing.

If she's thinking you're endangering her child and wants you vaccinated and tested before visiting, then sorry, she's not thinking critically.

He has some respiratory risk factor which is a game changer to her. I guess I should be happy she's unwilling to risk her kids health, but I feel like she's risk hypocritical sending him to pre school with many unknowns.

Yes, that's the point of contention. You're probably even less risk - you may be more likely to present. Other sources may not present clearly and she may not even have visibility to them even if they did.

Depending on the prevalence in your relative areas and how much you both are continuing to go out in public, she may be more risk than you. Not that she can avoid her child but academically speaking.

Anyway, good luck to you. Hope it all gets worked out.

OMAHA, Neb. — A man wearing a mask was shot in the neck with a BB gun at a supermarket in Nebraska on Tuesday, authorities said.


Phil Anson, a spokesperson for the Omaha Police Department, said the incident occurred at an Aldi grocery store in Omaha. The man wearing a mask was walking out of the store when he was confronted by a man who was maskless, the Omaha World-Herald reported.

According to Anson, the man without a mask spat on the other man, the newspaper reported.

The men began to scuffle, and the man without a mask pulled out a pistol-type BB gun and shot the other man, Anson said.

According to the victim, who asked not to be identified, he suffered injuries to his face and neck and had to remove a pellet from his shoulder, the World-Herald reported.

“I asked him why he would do that and he said, ‘You’re on the other team,’” the victim told the newspaper.

The unmasked man, who also was not identified, was arrested on suspicion of felony terroristic threats and misdemeanor assault, Anson said.


Emphasis mine.

Leave it to the crazies to fuck up a good fake pandemic.

I believe Lefty is correct and have thought the same

It's entirely likely they are intentionally doing this to cause higher infection/hospitalization/death rates in southern Republican states to discredit their governors' refusal to enact vaccine or mask mandates or continued lockdowns. Don't ever underestimate the propensity of marxists to kill people to achieve political goals.
