Chicago lockdown rnd 2. Thanksgiving cancelled.


Stay safe Chicago friends. Only reason you should be outside right now is gathering essentials, looting, or celebrating Joe Biden.


Am a real man and only listen to this Lightfoot, bro.

 
If you live in Chicago, what’s to be thankful for?
What an idiotic post. I’m taking it you’ve never been here? If you live in Back of the Yards, Englewood, Harrison or Austin neighborhoods you’re likely having a hard life. Yes this city has a history of gang violence that we can’t shake but the city is beautiful. Lake Michigan and downtown are beautiful. The architecture in so many neighborhoods is absolutely amazing to look at. Midwest hospitality is a thing and judging by your response you have no idea what it is. Open your eyes and stop being so close minded.
 
look at all the sheep in here willingly obeying their authoritarian governors.

lock-down order in Chicago and yet, blacks still be killing blacks at a record pace. guess masks stop bullets about as well as they stop the virus.
 
LOL. And this Beetlejuice looking Mayor is the same one that screamed "defund the police" and even made budget cuts towards it yet she had police patrolling her house to protect her from rioters and looters. Stupid bitch. That's what those retards get for voting in someone like that.
Do you have anything to back up your claim that she “screamed defund he police” ? I’m not saying you just imagined it but in all the quotes I can find she specifically said she’s against it.

It’s clear the majority of posters here have no idea what they are talking about. Not only do they think that the entire city is a war zone but also that since the mayor is a Democrat she must be encouraging protests and trying to defund the police. I’m sure all the people who believe this stuff hate the liberal media for lying to them and are getting their information from “credible” sources.

Fucking jackasses that voted their asshole leaders into office can go to fucking CHINA if they want to celebrate thanksgiving.

The party of "science" right ?




Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot today issued a stay-at-home advisory for residents – less than a week after she participated in a densely packed, citywide celebration after the media's projected fellow Democrat Joe Biden would win the 2020 presidential election.

The advisory, which does not appear to have the force of mandate, states that city officials "advise all residents of Chicago to stay at home in response to the rapid rise of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in the city."

"Residents are advised to only leave home to go to work or school," the advisory also states, "or for essential needs such as seeking medical care, going to the grocery store or pharmacy, picking up food, or receiving deliveries. ... If you do leave home, you must always wear a face covering and practice social distancing by staying six feet away from others."




The advisory comes less than a week after Lightfoot joined huge crowds celebrating multiple major media networks' calling the 2020 presidential election for Biden.

"This is a great day for our city," Lightfoot told a densely packed crowd last Saturday, speaking through a bullhorn with her face mask removed. "This is a great day for our country! We get to take our democracy back."
 
Cuomo isn't "canceling" Thanksgiving because he knows those who want to celebrate aren't going to listen to his bitch ass.
Remember he got a book deal for hanlding COVID... I guess killing 1000's in nursing homes is winning these days..

COVID only spreads at night and not at BLM protests.
"On top of limiting private gatherings to 10 people, Cuomo on Wednesday also ordered restaurants, bars and gyms to close their doors at 10 p.m., although restaurants can still deliver food overnight."""

New York Republican vows to defy Cuomo’s new 10-person limit on Thanksgiving dinners


With Thanksgiving two weeks away and coronavirus cases rising in New York, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo tightened restrictions in the state on Wednesday by limiting private, at-home gatherings — including holiday celebrations — to just 10 people.

Follow the latest on Election 2020
The Democrat’s move outraged some critics, including one New York City Council member who defiantly declared he wouldn’t follow the governor’s rules.

“I’ll be having more than 10 ppl at my house on Thanksgiving,” Joe Borelli, a Staten Island Republican who is the council’s minority whip, said in a tweet Wednesday. “Some family will come from (gasp!) New Jersey. Kids will see their grandparents, cousins will play in the yard, sis in law will bring strawberry rhubarb pie, & a turkey will be overcooked.”


As fall has brought colder weather to the Northeast, New York and New Jersey have reported an increase in new daily coronavirus cases in recent weeks, although the number of new daily infections isn’t as high as it was in late March and April when New York City was a hotbed of the pandemic.


New York state had a 61 percent increase in new daily reported cases over the past week, and new daily reported deaths have jumped by 47 percent. Nearly 1 in 5 people screened in Newark, New Jersey’s largest city, tested positive for the virus last week.

Cuomo said Wednesday he believes people who commute frequently to and from New Jersey have been “driving the high [coronavirus] rate in Staten Island,” CBS New York reported. Staten Island has the highest positivity rate in New York City, and most of the borough has been identified as a “yellow precautionary zone micro-cluster” because its seven-day rolling average positivity rate was above 2.5 percent over the past 10 days.


Residents of the borough have been resistant to coronavirus restrictions, staging protests early in the pandemic and congregating by the thousands for an October rally for President Trump that spurred concerns about viral spread. Local politicians in the Republican stronghold have also been pushing back against Cuomo’s cautious approach to reopening New York since the spring.


Now, restrictions have been put in place to try to dial back the latest increases in infections.

On top of limiting private gatherings to 10 people, Cuomo on Wednesday also ordered restaurants, bars and gyms to close their doors at 10 p.m., although restaurants can still deliver food overnight.


Borelli said he was not suggesting people should “stop wearing masks or even be reckless or anything.” But he argued Cuomo was wrong to limit the size of gatherings inside people’s homes.

Public health officials in New York state, though, have said large gatherings, including weddings and birthday parties, held at private clubs and inside homes, have turned into superspreader events in recent weeks. Those events and rising coronavirus numbers across the state led Cuomo to urge people to skip large Thanksgiving get-togethers this year.


Some other New York City leaders rebuked Borelli on Wednesday.

Council member Brad Lander, a Democrat from Brooklyn, said encouraging large Thanksgiving gatherings “gleefully ignores public health evidence & models behavior that will get people killed.”

Keith Powers, another Democrat who represents Manhattan’s Upper East Side, urged Borelli to “take the uptick of the virus seriously” and “act like we’re in a pandemic.”

They tried this for Canadian Thanksgiving. Basically nobody in nova scotia gave a shit and we all went to families places for Thanksgiving.
 
I'll wear a mask in public places, I'll stand the required distance from people.

I draw the line at government saying I can't see my family.

just curious. When that becomes law under Biden. What should the punishment be for not wearing a mask and standing close to someone?

fine? Jail? Watching the twilight zone on a 72 hour loop?

I also will wear a mask in businesses. But not when I’m outside.
