Abbott shutting us down again...

[JMKro]

Bullet point 4 is there specifically to allow rioters to riot...with their city leaders approval of course.

I thought the same thing. It's a joke, it really is. I was talking with my Dad about it yesterday, and he said one of the local news stations did a Covid timeline story breaking down when different virus related events happened. NOTHING was said about the protests. I've even seen news article headlines stating that the protests had no effect on Covid numbers. At this point, they're just laughing in our face. Not even the most basic logic applies any more.

Seems like it targets business that permit or profit from social alcohol drinking. 95% of my recreation is fishing and hunting so I've not been affected by closings of these sort of businesses but does seem odd that a virus spreads easier in certain places when it is an airborne type transmission.

I never changed how, where, or when I do anything. Don’t plan to start now.
Not eating out saved me a **** ton of money so that wasn’t an issue either way.

So I guess I did technically change my eating habits!

what a crock. I've lost all respect for the clown.

Like Michael Berry said. You either already had it, you have it now, or you are going to get it. There will be no vaccine.

If we hole up everyone in their homes, we only prolong the suffering. Go out, support local businesses, meet with your neighbors and friends, keep working, and keep enjoying life.

I have long suspected Abbott is weak. This just continues to confirm my suspicions.

Bingo!

Let’s just lay the blame on everything else because rioting and “protesting” by the hundreds of thousands hasn’t contributed to any new cases.

X2 but my beer budget has been overdrawn multiple times now

Abbott needs to go, and so does Dora the Explorer.

I disagree. I think Abbott has done a pretty solid job with everything considered. He is finding the balance between being open and not overwhelming our hospitals. The orders seem focused towards limiting recreational gatherings. While I don't like being told what I can and cannot do, and I acknowledge that once the hospitals get to capacity and beyond, there will be deaths that could have been avoided. Not just COVID deaths, but from other incidents as well. If a hospital is at capacity, they won't be able care for anyone whether COVID, a car wreck, heart attack or whatever.

I'm glad I booked a $600 condo on the Comal for next week. So frustrating.

Same here...

Supposed to go to the Nugget in Lake Charles in a few weeks for the wife's birthday. Hopefully Louisiana doesn't ***** out like Texas.

We were there two or three weeks ago, I was very disappointed! Not sure if it was because they were understaffed or if it’s always this way. It was dirty, smelly, overcrowded, mile long lines to the elevators. Most disappointing casino experience I’ve ever had. We spent all of our time next-door.

I had two customers come down with it from tubing at New Braunfels. Had another customer call me yesterday and he tested positive. Total of four customers this week either text or call me that have the virus now. Hell, one of them told me his BIL had it twice.

I thought it was like the measles, once and done.

How can they be certain on how they caught it?

I would think we are all exposed to it each time we visit Bucees or HEB

[skinsfan]

I truly feel the whole thing has been politicized and no one really knows what the heck is going on. My wife is a registered nurse at a hospital in Nueces county, she said the Covid units are filling up fast. In my opinion everyone will catch it at some point but we need to manage hospital capacities. There will be more deaths from other things if the hospitals are full of Covid patients. Just my opinion.

I know there was pressure put on him. I know some of you guys are saying we need to remember this in the next election, remember this, we need to vote for a Republican! He may be our only candidate. I think Abbott has not done a bad job.

[txpitdog]

Why the explicit targeting of "Rafting and Tubing" businesses? That's a strange one....well, they're all strange, but this one is explicitly.

Maybe scenes like this? Only time I’ve been on the Comal it was like this.

He has done a lot better the Democrat Governors have .

That's not good. We went a few years ago and I enjoyed it more than a lot of casinos in Vegas. We decided if it will be sub par due to everything happening we will probably cancel.
