Corporations require people to work or lose their jobs.

Worker becomes a carrier, and infects a family member, because corporation forced them to work.

Family member dies.

Worker has no recourse.

Worker owns a firearm and knows where CEO, or at least the immediate supervisor, lives.

What could possibly go wrong?

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are getting so close to the ACTUAL excrement hitting the rotating air movement device... Once it starts, all bets are off.

The walking infected, and their dying loved ones, have absolutely nothing to lose.

November 3rd needs to get here ASAP, before the lid blows.

The democrats just need to keep the lid on long enough to have a valid and FAIR election.

THAT may be impossible.
