    1. Americans have a certain swag, and they give a hoot to the virus, but the it’s the virus that doesn’t care. One lakh and counting. It won’t stop. Will accelerate. This is what bad leadership can do to a superpower.

    2. Walter White man made? Good god what has happened to some of you?

      I honestly feel terribly sorry for you, everything is a conspiracy.

      Tell me something, 911, inside job or not? Did man walk on the moon? What is the shape of the earth? What is Q?

    3. @The Tweatles Stop posting from your basement and go get your virus you clueless cult clown. No one is stopping you.

  1. Look at all those People. If there’s one caronosvirus in there…..maybe 20 people get it. Most will live, some may die. I wonder how the one’s that live will look like when they are done. 195 down to 160 lbs.

    1. @Just another day in the salt mine lucky you. It’s the doctors and nurses I feel sorry for – faced with so much death – then they see stuff like this.

    2. @red is for freedom blue is for losers red is for Russia – did you not realise that? Blue is conservative.

    3. @red is for freedom blue is for losers It’s not Trump we need to worry about, it’s people like this guy that are going to f#*k things up for everyone.

    4. @red is for freedom blue is for losers we got an antivaxing flat earth beleiver here!! Lol…go back to 10th grade biology… and then come back so I can teach you about pyruvate decarboxylation, Von Willebrand factor, how long is the electron transport chain and its complexes… You might need to take a crash course in quantum physics for that though.

      Until you can have that conversation, when you talk about this disease, you are literally just regurgitating something that you heard someone else say. No independent thought at all whatsoever. Classy

    5. @red is for freedom blue is for losers it is so strange to see such disregard for human life from the party of pro-life. Also, I’m going to assume that you weren’t born in America because I couldn’t imagine someone acting as unamerican as I see in you right now. The privilege and entitlement is radiating from you. You can even do the men and women who fought for you the favor of wearing a mask. You are what some would call a faux Patriot

  2. The grim satisfaction in this is while many of them may get a ‘walk’ from the virus, their older relatives won’t. So check back in 3 weeks or so. BTW where do they get all the money to go party at a bar with a pool? Also, beware … trolls below.

  3. I hope all those idiots had fun and are able to cancel their Father’s Days plans.
    Because in three weeks, Pops will be in the hospital.
    But at least you had your fun in the pool! 🙄

    1. @red is for freedom blue is for losers Yes, liberals are anti-Father’s Day. 🙄
      And you wonder why the world laughs at t’rump idiots. 😅😂🤣

    2. @Walter White You cult clowns wouldn’t recognise a fact if you were choking on it. Spewing cult conspiracies.

    3. @Trump 2Q2Q The Library You can’t even handle 2 months of staying at home and wearing a mask before you start whining and complaining. Our grandparents had to fight a war! And you can’t even deal with Netflix and cooking at home for 2 months! 😂🤣

    1. In reality Democracts support the LGBTQ community and everyone knows it 😳
      tinyurl.com/vpf95na 🎶

  4. I live in Missouri, where Osage Beach is. I think it’s interesting that Mike Parsons, the Republican governor, hasn’t said one word about this.

    1. Wes b
      if yer waiting for a vaccine get over it , this is something that’s gonna have to be dealt with using exposure and herd immunity. it’s on the down trend. these fear mongers on cnn and msdnc are lying to you. Fauci himself has walked back everything he’s said and finally today cuomo admitted they all failed , not just trump , EVERYONE FAILED , I hate cuomo as a politician but I respect that he had the guts to admit that the “experts” were all wrong , wrong on the models and projections and wrong on the numbers , and not wrong once. wrong every time.

  5. You cannot put people in the honor System they have no honor there selfish.
    THESE people are going to go back home. And People who around them will get sick maybe even passed away. Because if idiots being selfish and not keeping their distance.

  6. Why call it “social” distancing, it’s about “physical” distancing. You are still socially connected if you use a phone or a video chat system.

  7. The problem on the right is that they are exclusively focused on their rights. The idea that others might have rigths limiting their actions just does not compute.

    1. They want all the rights, and Think themselves patriotic, when they won’t make this small sacrifice to keep us all from spreading the virus! They all seem so upset that they can’t go to restaurants and be served over salted fattening foods or get their haircut!…

    2. The other problem you have is some people “think” they know better then the experts…They act like “Doctors” and do whatever they want no matter who tells them differently!!!

  8. So ironic that he said it’s just not the American spirit to stay cooped up inside! …we now have 100,000 more American spirits! They left their bodies and they are now spirits.

    1. Yeah they where awesome the way they killed all the old defenseless people in the nursing homes was great that’s why I’m going to clean out my dead aunt’s apartment tomorrow

  9. I can have fun another time. I’m just going to wait until this whole thing is over.

  10. Chinese are being blamed for starting this whole thing but people are doing this? Hypocrites🤦🏽‍♂️
