The mayor of Las Vegas is a nut...lol

[darrell74]

...here in Vegas, and from what I know about my small community, I know mostly snowflake liberal types, as I work with a lot of them.

Yesterday, I listened to them bitch about not working, including the ones who are getting fat stacks of unemployment cash.

Today, they got #notmymayor trending on social media.
Well????
I got to ask, what the hell do you want?

Personally, I'm okay with whatever they do, if they it's safe or not safe, I'm ready to go back to work and earn some cash, or stay home and collect unemployment.

To see these snowflakes bitch is hysterical to me.
Bitch and moan about not working, bitch and moan about the Mayor trying to get us back to work.

Every City Mayor and Gov in every State has lost their minds with this CORONA SHUT DOWN.. Afraid to have death on their hands so they keep it shut down! It's the safe responsible play. I understand this but I don't agree with it.

Funny thing is they will have more deaths and blood on their hands if they keep this shut down much longer. Forget about getting re-elected. People will remember they lost their businesses to this garbage.. Political powers they will remember..

People getting restless and are pissed off now in every STATE!!. Imagine losing your income and livelihood in one month. CLOSED and SHUT DOWN until further notice.. That will not fly for much longer!

Civil unrest coming...

yet every single country in the world that had lockdown early is on top of this thing, while those that didnt are suffering.

[Plaza23]

Problem with that is, ya make take the virus home with you and give it to someone that isn't a complete retard.

Honest question. Who cares? The only people with even a 0.05% chance of dying from this are already very sick with something else.

The entire premise of shutting down the country was based on a lie of “hospitals will run out of beds”. Well the peak has passed and that never came close to happening even in the hardest hit area of NY.

So why again are we keeping things shut down? Who does it benefit? You’re killing the economic lives of millions of people to prevent the spread of a virus to a tiny portion who are already sick anyway. Why? This makes no sense.

[mezmurized2]

The new science is telling us the Corona has the death rate of a seasonal flu.(95% of Covid deaths have secondary health conditions) Should we have shut down Las Vegas last flu season?

Links please....I would like to review that and perhaps change my understanding if needed.

But as it stands now, people with so called "secondary health conditions"
such as, but not limited to: ASTHMA, high BP, diabetes can reasonable be
expected to manage the ailment and still live a long and happy life.
Therefore any deaths triggered specifically by COBID-19 are indeed the
fault of COVID-19.

EX: a lovely 21 yr old coed cheerleader needs to take insulin daily to live.
She can be expected to live a long and fruitful life with the drug.
But a drunk driver runs her over and kills her instantly.
Are we to believe that drunk driving (vehicular manslaughter)
should NOT be counted as the cause of her premature death
because she had a "secondary health condition?!?!"

According to CDC stats here: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html
the typical seasonal influenza kills a mean avg of 38,000 Americans annually
That's over 12 months.....with NO mitigation to slow the infection.
As of now, the stats list 46,785 Americans dead from COVID-19, in only 2 months...
despite tough mitigation measures which have slowed the spread.

Ten more months to go and we will see how these stats compare better...

"When you have 15 people, and the 15
within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero,
That’s a pretty good job we’ve done."

Goodman is worthless as a mayor but she's right about this; no reason why businesses can't operate at reduced capacity.

April 20th Trump said repeatedly were headed to 50,000-60,000 deaths in USA

Many times this guy has been in a daze with this, but having said that, I think he has done a favorable job handling this incredibly tough task

2 months doesn't really tell the story. There were less than 5,000 deaths by April 1. It's almost all in April and the month isn't over yet. Will be over 50k deaths in April alone. Hopefully May will be a lot less, but the 60k thing is highly unlikely. I would guess we see 75k just by the end of May.

Seems completely impractical to me for casinos and hotels, but let's see the specific business plans. If it makes sense and they can do it, fine.

[Shafted69]

Bat Chit KKKrazy !!!

[blackbart]

somebody should post the governor's response, its great
wish he were running the usa

[blackbart]

listen to it and make your own determination
my take is, no Nevada casino is opening anytime soon

[thechaoz]

Vegas owners pushing her. They are the ones who put her in office and either keep her there or get rid of her.

She's the leader. They can penetrate right off

[thechaoz]

Cooper is a FLAMING IDIOT

[thechaoz]

The LEFT doing everything possible to destroy America

Why?

Hey come to NYC and I'll show you "the left".
As I'm your old as in a body bag in a freezer truck

Cognitive dissonance on here is just incredible

[mezmurized2]

Minner
I have to disagree. Those people will congregate in vegas, pick up COVID 19 whether they know it or not, then go back home and spread it to others back where they came from.

That appears to be the way infectious diseases spread, yes...

[Mike Huntertz]

Speaking of virus.....the Mayors rant has gone viral. I heard it twice in 30 minutes on two different radio stations this AM.
I do believe she will regret agreeing to the interview.

"Never assume the people in charge know what they are doing!"
COVid19 has sure proven that correct.

Here’s what’s going to happen if cases starts a spike in Vegas when it’s re-open it will close down forever it’s a high-stakes game

Have you been to Washington DC? Any city in Alabama?

At some point the politicians must stop holding up the economy and healthy peoples lives for the vast minority of people that may not survive this.

Their option is to stay at home.

The vast majority will be immune or survive this, and it no longer poses a risk to overwhelming the healthcare system.

There is no cure, no drug and no vaccine. All there is is our immune systems. You're either healthy or your not. You either stay inside or you shut your mouth.

My life, and the 98% of the population like me, doesn't revolve around the feelings or instabilities and shortcomings of anyone, sick or healthy, their loved ones, their families or whatever else. I will go out, and enjoy life. I would go to Vegas. If you don't want to go to Vegad than don't go!

[JIBBBY]

yet every single country in the world that had lockdown early is on top of this thing, while those that didnt are suffering.

They weren't practicing social distancing and wearing masks like America is doing now.. Poor comparison example..

Can open Vegas now and do just that and I highly doubt there will be a massive out break.. They do that at grocery stores now and it's working in most States that practice that.. People going in and out of grocery stores around the clock.

[jjgold]

If everyone’s not wearing a mask in Nevada it’s gonna be bad

Nevada Governor Condemns Las Vegas Mayor's Push to Reopen City, Says He Won't Allow Nevadans to be 'Placebo'

By Christina Zhao On 4/22/20 at 11:19 PM EDT
Nevada's Democratic Governor Steve Sisolak on Wednesday condemned Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman's push to reopen her city and asserted that the state is "clearly not ready to open."
Goodman, an independent, made a series of cable news appearances this week, during which she called for the city to "get our people back to work." In an interview with MSNBC on Tuesday, the mayor said Las Vegas is "ready to get back in business." One day later, she told CNN host Anderson Cooper that she'd "love everything open because I think we've had viruses for years that have been here."
After Goodman noted that the city had only seen 150 deaths from coronavirus, Cooper asked her if the relatively low death toll could be because of the state's stay-at-home order. "How do you know until you have a control group? We offer to be a control group," Goodman responded.
Sisolak disagreed with Goodman later on Wednesday during his own appearance on CNN. "We are clearly not ready to open," the governor said. "We have, sadly, since you did that interview, we now have 187 deaths in the state of Nevada, but over 4,100 positive cases."

He also vowed never to allow Goodman's offer to have Las Vegas be a control group by relaxing Covid-19 mitigation restrictions in the city. "I will not allow the citizens of Nevada, our Nevadans to be used as a control group, placebo, whatever she wants to call that," he said. "I will not allow that."
Sisolak noted that Las Vegas' largest trade union, the Culinary Workers Union, had lost 11 members to the novel virus, before saying he'll do everything in his power to ensure they don't lose 11 more. The Culinary Workers Union also rebuked Goodman in a statement released Wednesday, calling her remarks "outrageous." The group said they support Sisolak's "plan to protect Nevadans" and "encourage listening to health experts and scientists."

When asked by Cooper about his approach to reopening, Sisolak said the state needs a "phased-in approach."
