Well said.

Yes. Stay home. Obey. Comply.

I wont. Xxoo

The idiot who supports the party the supposedly wants "personal responsibility" takes absolutely zero personal responsibility of his own. Go figure. All hat, no cattle with this one.

Some of us have a personal responsibility to work and earn a living. Some of us also have employers who tell us to be there and not at home. I kinda like my job (at least the paycheck and bonuses) so I go in when they tell me to be there. Believe it or not, there are those of us who want to keep the country running.

So you are a trained monkey? Jump!

Ouch! 72 murders?!?!

That's 0.61 murders per day. That puts us on track for 223 homicides by the end of the year.

Not good, Memphis!

Another murder last night at a chicken wing place in the glorious area of Whitehaven.

On a happier note— Shelby County is opening up restaurants, retail and gyms at 50% capacity on Monday!! Hallelujah! The suburban mayors were starting to privately voice their displeasure w/ the Memphis and county mayors keeping things closed countywide. I’m guessing some prominent biz leaders were probably doing the same.

You all still alive in Tennessee?

Business is cranking back up for us. While we are based in Nashville which is still shutdown our footprint is all over the south. Glad to be hearing from customers again and that they didn't shutter permanently

Quote:Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee's Tuesday executive order blocked local governments from regulating places of worship as an effort to stop the spread of COVID-19.

His move came shortly before Memphis and Shelby County announced a phased reopening plan that would have limited places of worship to 25% capacity for at least two weeks, also requiring adherence to social distancing.

Now, churches, synagogues and mosques in Shelby, Davidson and other Tennessee counties can decide for themselves whether to worship in small numbers or return to regular services.

More: Tennessee church leaders weigh when to resume in-person worship services as COVID-19 outbreak continues

Experts are warning that even just a few large gatherings could cause an increase in COVID-19 cases, taking the county back to square one in its fight against the virus.

“The folks in Memphis and Shelby County have been very very reasonable..I anticipate that going forward that they’re going to be using social distancing,” said Dr. Scott Strome, executive dean of the College of Medicine at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center.

Not sure how I feel about this tbh. I have been wrestling with the church angle the entire time. On one hand, I have serious serious misgivings on restriction of religion because throughout history, that seems to be something that has issues being unrestricted again. On the other hand, mega churches probably do not need to be going full steam ahead back into 100% regularity. I trust my pastor, who is the head of a pretty large church in Memphis, to be wise and prudent about the issue, but we have seen some around the country press the issue as well.

I can see restricting it based on capacity. If you seat 1000, maybe you are limited to 200. But the restrictions on religion should be less than on other things. You should allow gatherings over 50 with social distancing.

SHHHHHHHH

Democrats will use this as support for taking away your guns (because it certainly isn't criminals who are banned from having them already committing these murders... it's 'home defense'/hunting people)

Also, it seems that the R's are quickly tiring of the local dems stalling in the major TN cities
(TN had been operating under the assumption that 89 counties used his EO's, and the 6 biggest counties went by what each of their Health Dept's said)

Quote:ASHVILLE, Tenn. (Mike Osborne) -- The Speakers of the Tennessee House and Senate have received an opinion by the State Attorney General that fellow Republican Gov. Bill Lee does have the authority to force the state’s largest cities to open pandemic idled businesses.

https://www.wmot.org/post/state-ag-opini...s#stream/0

In relation to that, I saw today where my town's mayor announced they will follow Memphis/Shelby County until Monday, and then we are following the state's guidance instead.

These Memphis Dem's aint happy. Eff 'em. We got lives to live.

Theyre just mad that the suburban mayors don't want to listen to them anymore, which is what I had predicted once Lee came out and put everyone back to work outside of the 6 big counties in TN.

and right on cue, the health department got upset and is trying to make the rest of the towns in our county bend to their orders.

that's one of the silliest thing I've ever read, congrats. I'm glad we listen to medical professionals such as the CDC and Immunologists such as Dr Fauci and Dr Jain.
