    1. @Ver Coda So what’s your hypotheses, of the hundreds of thousands of homeless people in California, basically turning the whole state into one big clogged toilet?????? You can see where this is going……..

  1. Lots more covid on they way.👌👌🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️☝️☝️☝️☝️

  2. Mississippi is “way behind”? Big surprise. They’re ALWAYS way behind in everything (except upholstered furniture).

    1. @D Floyd Mississippi has the highest percentage of black people in their state. So it can’t be that bad.

    1. @firestream93 help change the status quo, I am just guessing though.. any time a woman’s choice would be abortion, medically necessary or to maintain the status quo. Eliminate the necessity..

    2. Exactly! How do you live in a country that is nothing but rules and regulations and end up with the mentality that you don’t like being told what to do?

    3. So you like people telling you what to do. I’m telling you to sign off the internet and go for a long walk. Happy?

  3. First they lie to them, 5 years of lying does that. Now they threatened jail, confusing Republican voters need to sent Trump a end message. 2022 could not come soon enough.

  4. Mississippi, making Alabama look good…Alabama, making Georgia look good…Florida, making all 3 look good…and that ain’t easy folks…and I live in one of those states..

    1. But why is Florida so far ahead of Illinois when Illinois is ahead on full vax by 58 plus vs 51.5. Not a vast margin

    1. CDC website for total 2021 covid deaths thru aug 18, under age 45 3.4 percent, try that for size el lefty

  5. “I’m not an anti-vaxxer but…” If the excuse is you are a bunch of independent thinkers, I would have thought it within your capacity to see through the GOP lies and misinformation and come to the same conclusion that the rest of the world long ago reached which is the vaccines while not perfect (no medicine is) are highly safe and very effective.

    1. @Fransisca Vasquez party of science that says there are more than 2 genders
      Party of science that says masks dont do jack but mandates them anyway
      Party of science who decry global warming as they fly from climate summit to climate summit on their private jet
      How very sciencey of them

    2. @adamf663 They understand “me” vs “you” a lot better. The right capitalizes on this less evolved form of social and political awareness.

    3. Very sensibly put, T.K. I envy you because I couldn’t have said it without a bunch of four-letter words against those D-F’s who caused the “emergency” in the first place.

    1. @psycobleach46 tullis and for that matter the blue run cities in the red states are huge drivers of the economies in red states. WIthout them, they’d be even worse off.

  6. A good move … No extend it to Texas- Florida – Georgia – Alabama- Louisiana etc. or anywhere else they are too stupid to get vaccinated.

  7. LOL! A deep red state making these sorts of consequences is what deep red states said blue states would do. This is friggin hilarious.

    1. It’s like Republicans accusing the Democrats of setting up “death panels” and then advocating senior should “sacrifice themselves” for the benefit f the econmy.

    2. @Bryce Brogan yup. Like republicans saying the “extreme far-left” liberals of the democratic party taking control of the entire party. in reality its far-right extremists taking control of the republican party.

    1. Well I don’t know if your racist but I don’t enjoy the company of a nation that kills it’s own for personal gain. That’s what DamErica does on a daily basis, no matter what state your in… It’s not all about race except they did make the prisons and court system against blacks, where 50%+ is contained and made to do free or cheap labor (plantation). So if we are to speak of such a thing as race, and let’s be honest here, America is the third racist country in the entire human population (first goes to UK and Europe), then my biggest advice for all blacks in the south is to simply move to a blue state or just do like I’ve done and move to Africa. Africa is happily rolling the red carpet for it’s people from America!!! Zambia and Tanzania would welcome you and your ideas/businesses gladly.

    2. @firestream93 seems like you were fishing for the racist accusation, but at the same time other guy comes off looking like a child too. I laugh at both of you.

    3. @Open Minded I was ‘fishing’ anything. I was commenting to the fact that the original comment put race into the subject, when it didn’t need to be.

      Maybe you need a lesson in reading comprehension.

  8. Mississippi is way the behind a lot the things. Stinginess and selfishness and racism (they’re all the same thing) is a potent combination that is produces poverty.

  9. Gordon Lightfoot said it best in his “Cotton Jenny”:
    “In the hot, sickly South……………………….”

  10. What restrictions are they referring to that’s a felony? They didn’t even mention that part…Sheesh!!
