that and New Orleans and elsewhere (albeit rumor...).

Does anyone know what's in the bills being put together in the US House?  Who wants to bet that there won't be any gun grabbing in there?

That's right I did hear about N.O.  Oh, I am sure the Democrats are trying to get yet more gun restrictions in place with these stimulus packages.  That's why they NEED to be read, and stripped of that stuff and abortion funding, etc.

Stan posted this about Champaign, IL.  Is that what you are talking about or somewhere else?

^^^^^^Not only releasing prisoners, but not arresting criminals for theft and other crime.  What is to stop widespread looting, car jackings, and other crime?  Do they want it to get so bad that Martial Law must be initiated?  Will this be another Katrina where the Police show up at your house to confiscate your guns?

"I have heard" (apocryphal story, probable bullshit follows) that some people in places like California who are lining up to buy guns (probably their first) for defense from the zombies are finding out to their dismay that they are NOT able to simply waltz into a gun store and walk out with a gun, as they've been told by the gun-grabbers for years.  I hope at least some of them will seek out a knowledgeable friend, or even an organized class, to get a little training with their new security tools. 

Anyway, I like the idea of more people owning guns who don't think the things are just for hunting. If I hear one more politician say "Hey, I support the Second Amendment--I have a shotgun and shoot ducks..."

We have two anti (legal) gun groups against us.  Those that think no private citizens should legally own guns and the FUDDS who think that guns are just for hunting.  Neither are at all what the Second Amendment is all about.

This is a real concern. Many small businesses simply can't take the hit, and will put them out of business.  And their employees going unpaid will even over amplify the problem.

 IMO this whole situation has been blown way out of proportion.  What happens next flu season?  Do we do it all again and shut down everything?  Or does that depend on who is in the WH?

The over reaction to this virus may be the new norm ONLY when there is a Republican President in office, or at least a non-progressive, non-globalist, non swamp Republican in office.  This is their last gasp to get rid of Trump.  He is like the Virus the DC machine (host) wants to kill.

We would not have seen this at all if Hillary were in office.  The Media wouldn't be panicking people, in fact they would be suppressing the dangers, as would their Democrat cohorts.

No they are Mil Specs.

Oh, good for you!  They are high calorie because they are designed for soldiers in the field doing strenuous stuff all day.  Hikes, combat, work, etc.  Good for you for having a back up!

I have some freeze dried meals that I use for backpacking and camping.  Not a lot, but enough for a few days, maybe a week if I ration.

Nationalization is ridiculous.  However, I
Love Trump’s initiative to bring our entire medical supply chain back home to the US.

I heard this on Tucker last night and read about this this morning, but the fucking US Chamber of Commerce is fighting this move by Trump. Fuck those swamp dwellers. Go Trump.

All the Chamber of Commerce and other swamp dwellers care about is short term, lower costs to companies.  That's why they are promoting the influx of illegal aliens.  I'd like to see more strategy manufacturing come back not only for security but to create jobs, however my belief is that much of it will be automated, which is fine, but it is not a job panacea.  We had the lowest unemployment rate in decades before this crap started.

"People in hell want icewater too"  a retort to someone who wants something out of reach.   Sorry, more hell humor.

Ah yes, a reference to who and what you are.  I should have been a little sharper.  Although, if more far left progressive Governors praise Trump (because they want more money) Hell MAY freeze over and you will get your ice water.

Will they be picking up dead bodies from people who break into homes and get shot by the homeowner?

Well many that actually have valuable possessions in Philly are Limousine Liberals (Progressives) who voluntarily remain unarmed, because they are against private, legal gun ownership.  They only think the police and military (Government) should have guns.  I wonder what they are thinking now?

However, there are still some armed Americans remaining in that Hell Hole, and yes there may be some encounters with looters, car jackers, burglars, etc that will need to be removed posthumously.

The only thing we are running low on is ice water, but you already knew that.

I am missing the reference or the humor here.  Ice Water?  As long as you have power you can make ice in your freezer. 

I keep a nice stockpile of ammunition on hand, but I've been making more.  Claymores are set up around the perimeter, and the night vision cameras are working as advertised.  I only have one crew served weapon, but no crew, so have enlisted the dog to help.  He's learning quickly and gets a treat for every reload.

Soros helped to get Philly DA Larry Krasner (and others) elected.  Krasner is a traditional BOLSHEVIK, anti American Far Left Progressive.   The Philly police have now been instructed not to arrest for personal theft, burglary, auto theft, narcotics, prostitution and other what they are calling "non violent" offenses.

So I guess if people don't resist and allow their personal possessions to be stolen, then it is non violent and nobody gets arrested?  Wow, talk about creating a break down in society.

You won't need TP if you eat the MREs.

I don't think she is talking about military MRE's, but those provided by Blue Apron, unless I misread the post.  That being said, I do know people that keep military MRE's for emergencies, although I don't think they are to the point where they are having to eat them yet.  We still have a pretty good supply chain of food going.

I went to one of my local grocery stores yesterday, and was able to get 90% of what I wanted.  No TP or paper towels, and the meats were really picked over, but I got most of what I wanted.

Pharmaceutical companies are no longer money printing machines.  That ended almost 20 years ago or so.  They are under the same pressure, that other lower margin companies are under to cut costs.  Therefore, many have moved R&D, and manufacturing overseas.  Some have been bought by foreign companies, and/or even moved their HQ overseas for tax purposes. 

So, while they may still be U.S. companies they are still dependent on foreign operations.  Some are outsourcing manufacturing to third parties, again overseas.  We no longer have control of a lot of the drug production here. 

Berne and other Democrats are using this crisis to push NATIONALIZATION of certain industries like Drub and Oil companies.  Never let a crisis go to waste, right?  This is what you would get with a Democrat President, and Democrat legislature.

I've never seen anything like this in my lifetime.  The Virus is real, the response is unreal.  Traffic is sparse, lots of stuff closed, people staying home.  Very strange. 

What are people doing?  Lots working from home I know, some still going into work.  Anybody able to golf, fly, or do whatever?

Yep. I lived in NC 2000-2006. The ABC stores were clean, shitty selections, and real shitty prices. I think grocery stores could sell beer and wine.

Sounds like PA.  When I lived in Colorado I could go anywhere and get anything.  Duh, now they sell pot.   ::)
