They’re young and having fun.

Not going to knock them, though I’m sure some could use a wake-up call.

Spring Break. As one of the older Millennials we are all pretty much done with spring break. Most of us are all in our 30's. The oldest millennial will turn 40 this year.

for two weeks, please. They should all be quarantined since you KNOW at least one has/had it which means that others are already infected too.

Put them all out there for two or three weeks and see how they like it. They get one roll of toilet paper. They have to share.

This makes me furious. I know I wasn't the smartest person in the world when I was in my teens and twenties, but this?

He is a teacher and I used to be. We are both well informed Dems. He is 30-something and he said the same thing that those beach partiers were saying. I was shocked and have lost all respect for him.

I told him that he could be infected right now and not know it and if he were standing closer to me he could infect me. I wanted to punch him in the face, no, worse than that and I told him so. He muttered something as he was looking at his phone, walking away. I wanted to ring his neck! I am a pacifist too.

Some people deserve to get nailed by KARMA, those Spring Breakers and my neighbor are on that list.

I've heard of the blood-brain barrier.

This just proves that there's a fact-brain barrier in the heads of Republicans.

I'll join you.

He has been to protests with me. He listens to and reads DailyKOS. He went to an Indivisible meeting with me. He is smarter than I am by far. What is up with this thinking?!?!?

If the Republicans where I live are afraid to go out for a walk, surely a Democrat could understand group get-togethers are a really bad idea right now.
